What is Restless Leg Syndrome - Dr.Berg on Thiamine Deficiency and Restless Leg Syndrome Connection

[@wayneeastman]

1. B1 - Nutritional Yeast 2. Zinc 3. Folate (B9) 4. EPA - Fish Oil

[@loeschzone6876]

I suffer from this. People think it's a fake condition and that is sounds silly. Let me tell you, it's not. Long car trips, sleep, and plane rides can be miserable. Thanks for sending light on this.

[@allthingspossible4569]

Oh my gosh that is the truth!!! I HATE plane rides with restless legs. It’s MISERABLE!

[@TomNevillePlus]

I've fixed my restless legs! Taking advice from two things (a) this video - I'm now taking a vitamin B complex with a high amount of Vitamin B1 (in the UK its called Viridian 'high one b-complex vitamin B1) - I take this at lunch or with evening meal. And (b) I've upped my magnesium citrate dose based on advice from woman at health food shop who'd written her dissertation on magnesium - she advised 400mg magnesium citrate with dinner and then 400mg before bed. She said this is the upper end of daily allowance and is safe - though if you're new to magnesium try starting on a lower dose. She explained that sugars and carbohydrates in our diet, especially in evening meal, cause lactic acid to be created in muscles which results in the dreaded twitching! The magnesium disperses that lactic acid before you go to bed so you can actually sleep! I've now had a week of good sleep for the first time in years! A last bit of advice - get a proper measuring teaspoon set - your normal household 'teaspoons' are often a different size - mine was about half the size of an actual teaspoon measure and was taking too little magnesium. My increased dose and the vitamin b1 seem to have fixed it. I still occasionally get a light bit of twitching earlier in the evening on the sofa whilst the magnesium is still doing its work, but only sometines and Its gone before bed and I can sleep! Deep joy! UPDATE - 1 year later - after more research and making a diary of what I've been doing and eating and how that relates to my RLS - I've found a better cure - I now Just take the magnesium (regular dosage, only more if I have a particularly bad night, sometimes none at all if I forget and have a light dinner and don't get any twitches) and I use my Therapulses every evening. I bought two Therapulse leg vibrators and these are the best solution by far. The vibrate your legs for 10 mins or so and get rid of the twitching and sensation. I do it in advance when watching TV in the evening. Just put them on and sit there, no effort required. If I forget and wake up with twitches I just use them for 10 mins and it fixes them. I'm so happy! Worth every penny! My RLS got REALLY bad a few months ago when my twins were born because I was getting very little sleep and was stressed. I was getting twitches in my stomach as well as legs, my whole body was twitching in my sleep. That's when I did more research and found these Therapulse vibrators from the UK and they stop all my RLS totally, even the bad times. I've also worked out that alcohol and carbohydrates and sugars make my RLS worse, it's noticeably worse when I have a big meal and alcohol, although I haven't stopped consuming these things as the Therapulse fixes it each time! I do not take the vitamin B anymore although my homeopath told me I was deficient when I had the twins so I took some then. Hope this helps!

Hi Tom, I'm happy you cured your RLS. Did you buy Dr. Berg's powder? How much potassium are you taking? I decided to purchase Dr. Berg's Potassium powder, and I have been taking 500mg of Magnesium, but nothing has helped my RLS. I have it all day and night. It's excruciating. Ive tried several medications, but I end up getting chest pain and have to stop. How long after you started the two doses of Magnesium did you notice improvement? And do you think powder magnesium is better than pill form?

[@marlenej7951]

@@MsEvie15 In your case I would go completely off dairy along with the other nutrients you purchased. I know several people where nothing helped until they got rid of milk and cheese. Hope that helps.

[@MsEvie15]

@@marlenej7951 Does that work? I'm willing to do anything. There's got to be an answer. My chest is hurting again from taking the Lyrica. The RLS got really bad last month. It burning pain and itching and every medication my Doctor's have given me do the same exact thing. First they start to work. It was Gabapentin in the beginning. I was so happy when I got it. I was thinking I was going to be cured. Then by day 4, my heart starts racing, then chest pain, so I had to stop it. It's strange because I took Gabapentin back in 2017 for RLS just for 2 days and it didn't cause chest pain. I stopped because my RLS went into remission. So then my Doctor gave me another drug, and by the 3rd day chest pain with burning, so I had to stop. Then my pain management Doctor gave me Lyrica and by the 6th day my heart starts racing and then chest pain starts. I was thinking it might have something to do with me getting an Emgality ( migraine) injection, because after that I developed chest tightness and chest pain off and on. That takes 5 months to be completely out of one's system. If not I just don't understand why I can't take any medication without developing chest pain. Are you on a dairy free diet and how much potassium do you take?

This would have been wonderful to hear 8 years ago. I ended up getting RLS. My Doctor ended up giving me medication to help it which didnt work. We tried another one and that didnt work. Another one and that didnt work. My doctor said that where it was a newly diagnosed issue there wasnt to many medications for this issue and that he had one more medication to try. I tried it and that didnt work. I couldn't sleep at all. I was literally in tears over this situation. One of my buddies offered me a percocet. What a bad idea that was cz it worked but with my new found relief came an addiction. It was definitely a double edged sword. Around that time I stopped consuming sugar and carbs and started trying to stick to keto diet as much as possible. After I went through hell and back to kick the percocet addiction I was nervous of the RLS coming back but it didnt. I always wondered why it didnt come back. After this video I now know why it never came back. This is a great video Doc. I hope anyone that gets this can see this video and fix the problem naturally rather then going down the path I went down. This is by far one of my favorite videos you have made Doc. Keep up the great content.

I diagnosed myself with RLS on the web MD couple years ago

[@maryw5542]

I got RLS when I was on that nasty drug, Paxil, even though I was taking 50mg B complex. To combat the problem, I would do a lot of leg exercises and squats before going to bed. It worked well for me and as a bonus my legs never looked better. By the way, the RLS went away after I got off Crapxil.

[@zeph2076]

For me, it was when I tapered off of Prozac. I also had a bout with insomnia shortly after where I would take a Benadryl to sleep--this can cause RLS too. My mom has been on Paxil for decades and never got RLS thank God. I have heard it can run in families, so maybe the genes for it were there.

[@Mark-nu3us]

Paxil RUINED me. Between it and the HORRIBLE doctors that wouldn't let me change my meds... From ages 15-30 I was 144lbs, 6ft male. Always been skinny. 8 months on Paxil, I gained 80lbs, and it will NOT come off. That much weight gain, even loss, is extremely unhealthy, no matter how you look at it, and my doctors LITERALLY SAID, "I don't see the problem..." ?!?!?!?! Like WTF, a few more lbs and I went from being underweight to clinically OBESE in EIGHT MONTHS... It made me lose all my trust, what little I had, in doctors, and prefer to go unmedicated or lightly medicated, vs having to deal with the US medical system or the terrible doctors!

[@i.ehrenfest349]

@@Mark-nu3us Paxil is a deal with the devil. For weight loss, don’t go low calorie. Go low carb, no processed foods and INTERMITTENT FASTING.

What do you say to someone that has this issue, but has normal B1 levels?

[@1COMODIN9]

Tanks so much Dr Berg. Please include in a future video the dosage and time of day in which to take the nutritional yeast.

[@soostdijk]

I think best source of B vitamins are animal livers. nutritional yeast is still mostly carbs

[@ralsharp6013]

Usually comes with instructions

[@aida087]

Dr. Berg could you please do a video on Periodic Limb Movement Disorder? My 32 year old son was just diagnosed with this and I need to know if there's any special diet or supplements he can take? They're saying it could turn to Parkinson's and I'm praying not so, and desperately need your input on this as I'm concerned for my son, thank you in advance.

[@biljam972]

Can RLS also be caused by Iron deficiency?

[@kitkattie61]

I am diabetic recently diagnosed. I stopped eating high sugar foods before bedtime. Now I don't suffer from restless legs.

[@cleverfellow8198]

You can't forget fascia, it's a major component as much as dopamine.

[@ralsharp6013]

Clever fellow what do you mean please?

[@hameensabir3900]

Thanks so much Dr berg you are amazing.

[@wavokiaado]

Do I have to go to a doctor to get b1 and magnesium? Or is there a natural way?

[@sonaa4706]

How to consume nutritional yeast... quantity n timings?

[@Drberg]

Hi there! Dr. Berg might recommend a type of supplement but does not get into specifics. We recommend you do a bit more research on this.

[@tillygirl7450]

I, personally, put 2 tablespoons of nutritional yeast - in my smoothies which yield about (6) 8 oz smoothies. Also, I put 1 to 2 tablespoons of nutritional yeast in my GF pasta meals, rice and bean meals, etc. The flavor is like parmesan cheese. I did notice a positive difference when I started to add it to my smoothies and now try to add it, if I can, to any of my meals daily.

[@sallyanngrisolia4876]

I just ordered the nutritional yeast because I can't take it any more. The potassium citrate is on its way from Amazon. This condition is driving me crazy. I haven't slept in months. Dr. B, I will let you know as soon as possible.

[@Drberg]

Thanks for your purchase, I hope it helps!

[@Imel520f]

Thank you so much for your tremendous help Dr. Berg, I notice my son keeps twitching his feet during sleep and he has some kind of ADHD and cant sit still. I am relieved after watching your video.

[@istp1967]

I get this a lot; a Big Thank You 😊💕👍👍👍

[@giarcrednep]

This info is gold! Thank you 🙏

[@shane5385]

Was it gold? Did it work?

[@giarcrednep]

@@shane5385 Yeah it did for me!

[@alaskanmom2659]

Thank you for this video! I’ve never had sleep issues despite my chronic pain and now all Of a sudden I can’t sleep and my legs have been giving me painful issues the last 7 years and docs say there’s nothing wrong😫

[@pfeiffdog0811]

I have this my whole life. 41 now and my legs are moving as I type this. It’s crazy.

[@jackieredding9019]

Dr berg will this help with my son he has multiple sclerosis?

[@pineappletop8751]

Dr Berg can you please explain constant tingling feet??

[@stephbella656]

Thanks Dr Berg. When you speak about “psyc drugs” impacting B1 levels, would this include antidepressants?

[@ralsharp6013]

Yes I imagine so. Antidepressants and anti nausea. I'm not sure these things are very safe to take during pregnancy

[@fakhrulislam2357]

Hey doctor berg i am from germany.please make a video what is differance between RLS and leg cramps ..thank you...

[@ringdingersworldwide741]

Would the same apply to Periodic Limb Movement Disorder?

[@baderbader8738]

Hi, do you still have PLMD? If yes, what have done? Any suggestions? I have it now and can’t sleep well at night. Thanks!!
