Sorry I feel like I'm suddenly posting a lot
That said I need the expertise of the good people of babble land.Firstly I'm finding that I often experience minor muscle twitches, for no apparent reason, especially when I in bed (trying vainly to sleep)
What could be causing this?
I've read that Magnesium, Calcium and Pottasium defficiency can cause muscle cramps/twitches?
Which is most likely?
I think Magnesium helps me with themSecondly I've suddenly got really paraniod about coffee.
I only drink it first thing in the morning. Could it still be affecting my sleep at night?When I stopped drinking coffee for a few days I did sleep better, but I was also away from home, which could of had an effect.
I really don't want to face mornings without coffee, but I think I'll have to withdraw.
I've heard coffee does deplete Magnesium, Calcium and Pottasium because its an acid diuretic.
I think it does make the twitches worse
