I'm thinking that perhaps I am not as pyroluric as I thought. I tend to do very well with high dose B6, but the zinc just makes me tired and sluggish, so the last few days I've been weaning myself off zinc and I seem to be feeling better. I stick to a program of other nutrients including, Vitamins C and E, selenium, Cal/Mag, B1, B2, B6, GABA, and essential fatty acids. I think zinc may have been the problem for me. The GABA is a key nutrient because it dampens the stimulation caused by high dose B6. If you take too much B6 you can actually feel too energized, so the GABA works to balance out the energy somewhat. The key is to find the right dosage of B6 for you that takes away the depression. My target dose seems to be 200mg per day of B6, no more, no less.
