Restless legs? Mar 30, 2016 ;This amino acid is the precursor to the brain chemical dopamine which, among other nice things it does, relieves muscle jerks and tremors. I use it for restless leg syndrome; my spouse uses it for essential tremor. Not a cure, but helpful -and it’s something the body is already familiar with, so it’s not like taking a synthetic drug
