Hello,

The constant feeling of tired legs could be also related to magnesium deficiency. Can check blood electrolytes including magnesium levels to rule this out.

Treatment with magnesium and zinc supplements can help reduce that tired feeling of legs.

Eat healthily, take vitamin D and calcium too.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
