Muscle twitches can also be caused by low iron levels. You could try supplementing your iron and see if that helps.
Taking more vitamin D can also help if your twitching is accompanied by muscle cramps.
B6 deficiency can also cause twitches.
Yes, I'm been trying all the minerals you suggest (except iron -- I will add that as well). The research I've done on this issue, called "Benign Fasciculation Syndrome", all suggests the minerals (but it unfortunately rarely works).
The twitching I experience isn't occasional. It happens virtually ALL the time (except when I am standing or walking). Quite maddening.
Thanks for the insights!
