Restless Leg Syndrome

Restless Leg Syndrome

Restless Leg

To stop nighttime twitching, shaking and kicking of the legs, try taking some niacin. Doses vary from person to person, ranging anywhere from a low 50-100 mg to a high 500 mg. By trial and experience, you learn just how much to take. While doing so, you may experience a warm flushing sensation, described elsewhere on this website (a site search for “niacin flush” will bring up the material for you). I take just enough to gently flush. (Personally, I like that warm feeling, and at bedtime, it settles me right out.) One of several user reports:

“Just thought I'd let you know another great use for Niacin -- restless leg syndrome. My husband has never been officially diagnosed, but has a lot of trouble sleeping. This year when the work season started again, he began kicking me all night. It got so bad that I wasn't going to be able to sleep in the same room. Every few seconds, his legs would move and it was driving me up the wall. I persuaded my husband to try Niacin with Vitamin C right before bedtime. Works like a charm, in fact when he missed his vitamins the other night, I could tell within minutes. What a great solution to a problem that so many suffer with!”

My own family members with the problem have tried this, and they no longer have restless legs.
