Wow, this is truly useful stuff. My 14-year-old son has started suffering from RLS. His father did too although I think his is more under control now. I have struggled with what to say to my son but at least here there are some good points to start from. I will definitely try him with a bath with Epsom salts - given his age, we need to find therapies that are as non-intrusive as possible. It is a bit simpler in some ways because his diet is already good and at his age, there is no alcohol or coffee to add to the mix. Â But he is really going in heavy on the protein because he loves playing rugby and it is better as he gets stronger and stronger. So I will have to watch that with him as it sounds as if protein is contra-indicated with this problem. Â Thanks to everyone for all the information. I will feed back anything that works for my son.
