Can A Diet Plan Cause Leg Pain?
I ve recently started a diet, New Journey Diet that is made up of limiting certain foods and using a lot of proteins. I ve just in the past day or 2 noticed an aching in the back of my legs, mostly my left leg. It comes and goes but bothers me more when sitting. The pain isn t bad but bothersome. Could it be the diet or the increase in water
