> Hi,
> My sam-e trial didn't start very well.
> Start at 400mg X 2 + B1,B6,B12 complex.No riboflavin, niacin, or folate?
That could be the problem right there.
> For the first 3 hours i feel pretty alert, quite well. But after another hour i begin to feel dizzy, little nappy and so i remain for all the afternoon.
> As i have never heard about dizzyness induced by Sam-e i suppose it could be induced by B complex (B12 is a little particular supplement).The reason that B12 is so particular is that it increases the demand on other B-vitamins substantially, and you're not taking a full B-complex. Are you in Europe? I think I've just had a discussion about this, above.
> Anyone has an idea:
> 1) Could be caused by sam-e?
> 2) could be caused by B supplement?
> 3) a con-cause of the two above?
> 4) It is only my immagination, it is better that i see my doc?
> Thanks for every share and help!!!
> EveDid you try splitting your SAMe dose through the day? You could just be feeling the boost it provides, and it wearing off. It's totally consumed by your body. It's like gas in your car. Put a little bit in, and you don't get too far before you sputter.
