Great post qqqsimmons, my worst supplements that put me in a apathetic mode are vitamin D3 and magnesium.

Too much fish oil gives me insomnia. Many antioxidants and vitamins as well... like antaxanthin, Alpha lipoic acid (ALA), folic acid (especially methyl folate), B6 (especially pyridoxal 5 phosphate). Many of these supplements also make me agitated and distabilize mood.

(lower my blood sugar, whatever)

I've found cinnamon and ALA to be quite tricky since they lower blood sugar.
