My husband found an article on PubMed that said Stevia was linked to restless legs. I have Stevia all day long in everything. Protein bars, my electrolytes, my morning coffee sweeteners. So I went two days without Stevia and I have not had restless legs. I do not believe this is the answer, but I just want to know if any of you use lot of artificial sweeteners? If so, maybe you could try going a day or two and see if it makes a difference. I don’t think it could’ve worked that fast with me, but I am so hopeful.

I have terrible RLS. Terrible. I went on vacation for four days and slept in a wonderful bed and I had no RLS for those four days. I just could not believe it. So I checked the bedding and it was all cotton sateen sheets. I found the vendor with ChatGPT and I ordered the sheets and I came home and I ordered a dupe cotton comforter (the hotel one was too expensive) with a cotton exterior and an all cotton duvet with ChatGPT‘s help. I have been home now for two days with this new bedding and I do not have restless legs and I am in total shock. I am praying to God that this is a cure for me. I think I was too hot at night with my bamboo bedding and my microfiber comforter. So I have a suggestion for anyone with RLS to try to check out your bedding and get rid of microfiber, polyester, and go all cotton bedding. I can post what I bought, which was not too expensive and the actual sheets I slept on if anyone is interested. I am in shock so far and I pray that this is not just something intermittent. I keep my AC at 70°. I also sleep with a fan on me. I think the microfiber bedding was making me too hot at night and I did not realize it. My feet and legs feel wonderful with this cotton bedding. I thought bamboo would keep me cool, but the cotton sateen sheets are just wonderful.
