It's not how you eat, it's what you eat. Try and get more protein in your diet, potassium, and vitamins. I went to the doctor for mine, and he said I had a huge deficieny in those categories. I am also a vegetarian so I knew I wouldn't have any protien which played a big part. All those things help in regulating your body. So try eating bananas(potassium), lean meats(protein), nuts(protein), milk n yogurt(calcium), fruit and vegetables(vitamins, all this should help regulate your body. The deficeny in those things causes your muscles in your body to eat at themselves which is most likely what yours in doing, since your muscles arent getting enough vitamins they are slowly eating themselves or as you could say rotting and becomming weak. I have alot of problems when I walk, I get weak and tired alot because of this as well. Just try and eat healthier. [ ComplicatedParadise's advice column | Ask ComplicatedParadise A Question ]
