More balance in need: Protein increase and monitor carbs, ideally you could use a nutritionist to assist. Some personal trainers are particulary good with targetted diet. It is always helpful to rememberthat diet overall must be balanced. The muscle milk is not a replacement but a supplement.

I stopped smoking 22 days ago. All my muscles are extremely tense and sometimes they are switching. Can it still be the effect of the stopping?

Smoking cessation: Congratulations on becoming smoke free. Please do not allow the symptoms you mention to become an unconscious excuse for you to start smoking again. They are unlikely related to you smoking cessation. Please see your doc to rule out medical conditions and then consider stretching such as in yoga. If your doc finds your magnesium level low you can supplement w/that. Peace and good health.

Foggy & Joint Pain: Lots of possibilities and you need to see your doctor to find out. Your symptoms are seen in Lyme Disease. You may also have sleep apnea which interferes w/the quality of your sleep at night. Are you depressed about something? Professional support can be very helpful in your situation. Peace and good health.
