The Only Product That Has Worked For Me

[Carolie12]

I use Calm Legs by Native Origins. Amazon has it and so do other websites. I have a spinal cord injury.

Hi Carolie, how much do you take and what time of day?

[Carolie12 in reply to Hidden]

The standard dose is two capsules and I take it at bedtime.

[Hidden in reply to Carolie12]

It might be the iron in the Calm Legs that’s giving you relief. See my profile page ;).

[Carolie12 in reply to Hidden]

I wouldn't be surprised if the iron is helping. I tried taking an iron supplement but it didn't help.

[Carolie12 in reply to Carolie12]

I just learned something about RLS I didn't know. If you are hypothyroid, you are more likely to have RLS.

And 30% of people with RA have it!

[Hidden in reply to Carolie12]

For me the iron has to be a highly bioavailable form and I have to take it before bed on an empty stomach. Glad You’re doing ok!

[Carolie12 in reply to Hidden]

I would never make it on my sensitive tummy having to take it on an empty stomach. Glad you can tolerate it.

It’s good you are getting relief from Calm Legs. However, I feel I should mention that anyone taking a blood thinner should be aware vitamin E can thin blood even more and cause a bleed. Unfortunately I take Xarelto so cannot try Calm Legs - if only. I hope you continue to get good results.

Calm Legs is a blood thinner? How do you know this? Just curious...🤔

[Jelbea in reply to LanaCSR]

I am not saying Calm Legs is a blood thinner but when you are taking a blood thinner you need to be extra cautious of the contents of any supplement. The Vitamin E content is the part which could affect your blood thinner and make it more possible to have a bad bleed.Another supplement which is widely used is omega 3 and again this has a blood thinning effect. Anyone in doubt can run it by a pharmacist. Good Wishes

That is good to know! Thank you so much!!

Pretty stiff price for a multi-vitamin with iron. I would take a more full featured multi-vitamin like Life Extension 2 Per Day and add Ferrous Bisglycinate Chelate (Ferrochel). I take the LE 2/day because it uses the better forms of B Vitamins (B6 as P5P, Folate as Quadrofolic, and B12 as methylcobalamin).

I happen to be taking the Life Extension B Complex. I've tried taking all the recommended supplements for RLS by Life Extension and it didn't work. Go figure. I don't think it is a placebo effect. I wish Restful Legs helped me. While I'm wishing having RLS when you have a hip that needs to be replaced is beyond description painwise.

I use Restful Legs by Hyland. They really help a lot.

[PoorRichard in reply to marsha2306]

I use Restful Legs as well. Very helpful.

Some of us find Hylands Restful Legs helpful.
