Shownotes

Have you been diagnosed with restless leg syndrome - but the iron pills or medications you've been given for it aren't giving you any relief? 

Do you struggle with chronic fatigue, and you've been told it's from restless leg syndrome, but nothing you try makes you feel more rested?

 

If you’ve ever spent nights Googling “restless leg syndrome treatment” or “restless leg syndrome causes,” you know how frustrating RLS is.

 

When I was diagnosed with restless leg syndrome in middle school, I felt the same confusion and frustration about my RLS.

 

I was told it was because I had low iron. I took the supplement, and it maybe helped a little...but I still felt exhausted throughout the day.

 

It wasn't until I became a functional health practitioner that I figured out what was causing my restless leg syndrome - and how to treat restless leg syndrome for myself in a way that actually WORKED.

 

Now - I've found COMPLETE restless leg syndrome relief (which my husband is so grateful for!). And today, I'm going to teach you how you can do the same. 

 

In today’s episode, we’re diving into the real root causes of Restless Leg Syndrome — the ones most doctors never mention.

 

You’ll learn how restless leg syndrome connects to your brain, iron levels, airway health, and even your gut health — and what steps you can take to finally find restless leg syndrome relief naturally.

 

Restless leg syndrome isn't random, and you're not stuck with it for forever.

 

It's time to teach you the root cause of restless leg syndrome so that your legs - and your sleep - can finally find some peace.
