His theory is that RLS is the result of poor liver function not looking after the bloodstream. Actually he said that the liver cannot hold as much blood as it should, so when you sit or lie down, the blood stays in your legs and that makes you feel restless. I did have difficulty accepting that part of the explanation, >> Yea, I have trouble with the liver theory too. Knowing the human body as well as I do, I receive much inspiration from the miraculous designs and functions of the human body. The way the human body operates, functions and such never ceases to amaze me. Anytime some " human " know-it-all thinks that the basic design of the human body is somehow flawed and that they know how to correct this " creator " design defect, I just roll my eyes and ignore their " egotistical " ignorance. Our knowledge and theories about the human body are utterly pitiful compared to the wondrous miracles that the human body performs every second of our lives. The human body was around way before they invented acupuncture, way before Tension Tamer was for sale, and way before crazy man Still invented chiropractic medicine in the 1800's. Perhaps RLS is a " modern " disease created by our own doings - pesticides, pollution, Western/agricultural diet, modern society, stress, stress, stress and more stress, etc. " longing for my stone 'n spear childhood days " RAINBOWPED@...
