Soap as a remedy for RLS
A bar of soap under the sheets can solve a common problem
If these remedies work, they are the perfect alternative and I'm all for trying them. That's why I had to share the latest trick of placing a bar of soap under your covers for a common health problem that can affect one in ten people. It may sound a bit strange, but many people swear by it.
It has been hailed as something that works for many patients with restless leg syndrome (RLS), the disorder of a part of the nervous system that controls the urge to move our legs. It causes uncomfortable sensations in your legs that usually affect people's sleep.
It can be a sign of an underlying disease, such as Parkinson's disease, kidney failure, and diabetes, which often include symptoms of RLS, and treating these conditions can provide relief from RLS. Some medications can also make symptoms worse, and even during pregnancy, some women can develop RLS symptoms.
Dr. Oz covered the natural remedy on his show and suggested that soap with certain oils was the best choice, especially lavender soap, which helps your body relax while you're trying to sleep.
There is no medical evidence that this actually works, but there is a suggestion that the symptoms of RLS may be caused by dehydration and low potassium levels. Most soap bars contain sodium chloride, which can be absorbed into the soap through the skin during sleep. While it may sound unbelievable, there are people who have tried it and praise its effectiveness.
