Just shows really, that unless you know exactly what you are doing, it can be a very dodgy thing taking some supplements. I have been taking chlorella, vit C ALA and D3 sublingual, along with whey, and the last two days I have felt really unwell; so much so, that I have left off all supplements for a few days, and am now feeling better. I experienced the most awful bone-tiredness where I could not keep my eyes open; a couple hours after taking them; but could not sleep either. Also a disturbance of vision and subsequent thumping headache. Now I don't know if its coincidence or what, but I am going to introduce them back in one at a time and see what if any, have caused it. Maybe its because I take them altogether, who knows? dee
