According to Mayo Clinic, more than 3 million Americans are suffering from restless leg syndrome, also known as RLS.  Unfortunately, the doctors still have not found a cure for this common medical condition which can very seriously affect a person’s quality of life. 

Aside from causing discomfort by the leg cramping, RLS typically leads to sleepless nights as a result of constant tossing and turning in bed. And, this cramping doesn’t only affect the legs, but the head, arms, torso, and other body parts.

Many health experts have discovered that the main culprit for restless leg syndrome is a malfunction in the nervous system, which makes the legs cramp and move uncontrollably. Normally, the symptoms appear overnight, and can be extremely frustrating. Often, RLS is quite painful too. People who’ve been through this compare the symptoms with itching and can be relieved if you stand up and walk around.

There is no medical cure for this condition, but there is a natural way in which you can prevent and make the cramping disappear.

This folk remedy actually involves using a bar of soap. The trick is very simple. Just put a soap under your bed sheet or under the bottom fitted sheet. To avoid dirtying your sheets, you can first put the soap in a sock before placing it between the sheets. It’s also recommended to change the bar with a new one every month as it’ll likely dry out and dry soap won’t release the needed ions. In other words, it won’t do much good. So, always have in mind to keep the soap fresh at all times.

Even though this method is still not backed up by science, those who have tried it swear by its efficacy.  These people claim that keeping a fresh soap under the sheets provided relief from their RLS symptoms. So, if you are suffering from this condition, give this method a try! It is all-natural, it doesn’t provide any side effects, and it is very effective.
