Gabriel treats RLS as nutritional deficiency plus neurological imbalance, not mysterious condition.
Gabriel treats RLS as nutritional deficiency plus neurological imbalance, not mysterious condition. He focuses heavily on iron and magnesium optimization (ferritin must be >75-100 for RLS improvement, not just 'normal'), addresses dopamine support, tests for underlying conditions (kidney disease, neuropathy), eliminates trigger medications when possible, and uses targeted supplements. Most RLS responds dramatically to proper iron and magnesium repletion - simple but often missed by conventional doctors who don't optimize levels.
Standard Treatment
Dopamine agonists (pramipexole, ropinirole - first-line), alpha-2-delta ligands (gabapentin, pregabalin), opioids for severe cases, benzodiazepines, iron supplementation if deficient (but often don't optimize levels adequately).
The Problem
Medications have significant side effects (dopamine agonists cause augmentation - RLS gets worse over time, impulse control issues, gabapentin causes sedation and cognitive fog), treats symptoms not cause, often miss iron deficiency (test ferritin but don't optimize it to >75-100), don't test or address magnesium deficiency, medications don't work for everyone, augmentation with dopamine agonists makes RLS worse requiring higher doses or different drugs (vicious cycle), simple nutritional optimization often eliminates problem but rarely tried adequately.

Iron-rich foods consumed with vitamin C for absorption (grass-fed red meat, liver, dark leafy greens, pumpkin seeds, lentils paired with citrus, bell peppers, tomatoes), avoid iron blockers (coffee, tea, dairy) within 2 hours of iron intake, magnesium-rich foods (dark chocolate, leafy greens, pumpkin seeds, almonds, avocado), adequate protein for dopamine production, eliminate caffeine (worsens RLS), reduce alcohol and sugar (deplete magnesium and worsen symptoms), balanced blood sugar (protein with each meal), adequate hydration.
Leg massage before bed, hot or cold compress (different people respond to different temperatures), moderate exercise earlier in day (not evening), stretching before bed, pneumatic compression devices, avoid sitting for long periods, elevate legs, avoid trigger medications (antihistamines like Benadryl), stress management, consistent sleep schedule, limit screen time before bed (dopamine dysregulation), compression stockings if venous insufficiency, avoid alcohol close to bedtime.
