> johnjJohn, your descriptions of the effects of meds and supplements strikes a chord with me; we seem to be very similar.
When I try a supplement, and it adversely affects my sleep, I try smaller doses, and occasionally increase them to see if I'm still as susceptible to insomnia or vivid dreams. First and foremost, I need good quality sleep. But also, over time, I seem more resilient and have a greater intellectual capacity. I was totally disabled, once upon a time, but now I can accomplish much more. Not what I once did, but hell, that might be why I got ill.
I don't know about the DHA/EPA balance, really. Even though I am a trained scientist, there's another part of me, apart from the rational-deductive. I trust my intuition. We don't have the phrase 'gut feeling' for nothing.
