Question What is and causes restless leg syndrome? I had never heard of this until my late mother-in-law used to talk about having the "budges" in her legs. She would often tell me that she couldn't keep her legs still when she went to bed. I have noticed my husband lately having the same problem.
AnswerIt is when the legs are uncomfortable and keep moving especially at night. see www.nih.gov and search for restless legs for a complete explanation.
The cause and treatment appear to be from a deficiency of B vitamins, omega 3, calcium, magnesium and vit D.
