Symptoms:
Pains in the joints, twitches in the legs, etc.
Cause:
No, it is not a disease. Growing pains are a part of life in many homes, as the children grow toward adulthood.
But growing pains are not necessary. If good food and proper vitamin/mineral supplementation are provided, along with proper rest and an active exercise program, there is no need for "growing pains" to occur.
Treatment:
• Prevention of growing pains includes a solid nutritional program—rich in calcium, magnesium, selenium, vitamins A, B-complex, E, and C.
