Restless Legs Syndrome (RLS) is a condition that causes an uncontrollable urge to move your legs and affects over 10% of the UK population.
It typically happens in the evening or nighttime hours when you are sitting or lying down. Moving eases the unpleasant feeling temporarily.
There has been some research to suggest CBD could help.
Besides helping with RLS, CBD has been shown to alleviate anxiety, seizures, inflammation, chronic pain, and much more. It is no surprise that CBD helps with Restless Leg Syndrome as well.
CBD, when used to help with Restless Leg Syndrome, works by relaxing muscles, and calming the nerves in your legs that cause the tingling and painful sensation.
There is evidence to suggest Restless Legs Syndrome is related to a problem with the part of the brain that controls dopamine.
Dopamine is a type of neurotransmitter your body produces. Your nervous system uses it to send messages between nerve cells to help control muscle activity and movement. It is usual for dopamine levels to fall at the end of the day, which may explain why symptoms are often worse in the evening and during the night.
There is research that shows CBD has a positive effect on dopamine levels which in turn can help reduce or stop the symptoms of RLS.
My husband suffered most evenings with Restless Leg Syndrome conditions. I have witnessed how awful this condition is. However since taking CBD it has all but gone.
The only time he has a bad night now is if he drinks red wine. It seems to trigger the sensation, but his everyday symptoms are nothing like they used to be.
Everybody responds differently to CBD and the dose will vary from person to person. Things like your weight, metabolic rate, and condition, will all affect the amount that you require.
We suggest new users begin on a low dose and build up a daily dose of 25-40mg.
It can take up to 6 weeks to see the full effect. Once you have been taking 25mg for a few days keep adding in a few extra drops each day until you find the amount of CBD that is good for you.
