Crashed from multivitamin

[WorriedGuy123]

So yesterday took a multivitamin with the following:

Vitamin A
VitaminC
Vitamin E
Selenium
Zinc

Yesterday, I had trouble falling asleep and developed anterior ankle problems.
Today I have insomnia again and heart palpitations when I go to sleep.
I also have random aches in my body.

My initial suspicion is thr zinc, as it acts as an aromatase inhibitor, but all the vitamins and minerals were low doses.
It also makes me think I have an estrogen problem.

Does anyone have any insight? I don’t think it’s vitamin C, as I regularly took Vitamin C without any issues in the past.

Any B-vitamins in it? I “crashed” in 2018 from a combo of SAMe and Methyl-B12 and horrid insomnia was one of the symptoms.

There have also been adverse reactions reported by post-drug patients who took zinc, and vit-A in the form of retinol or retinyl ester can be converted into the active metabolite of Accutane.

How can you crash from Methyl-B12? What does it do?

[WorriedGuy123]

Nope, no B-vitamins.

@Bobs18

How can you crash from Methyl-B12? What does it do?

All I know is what I experienced after taking it with SAMe:

A warning about SAMe, methylcobalamin, and high-dose B vitamins

After reading of some post-Accutane patients on acne.org and phoenix rising having improvements of (unspecified) symptoms by undertaking a methylation protocol according to 23andMe results, I decided it would be wise to attempt the same. A terrible mistake. In early August, I bought a bottle of 30 200mg SAMe tablets. I was taking these daily and didn’t notice much of an effect. In mid-August, I bought a bottle of 1,000mcg methylcobalamin (B12) tablets and started taking them daily with the SAM…
