Lightbulb I'd start with magnesium first...

All diabetics become low in this and need extra because for some reason it is lost in the urine for these patients.

There is an interesting post on my magnesium thread concerning this:

Shelley's post: #148

This is not expensive. One of these twice a day is enough for most people.

I don't know what you have in Canada.
this is generic SlowMag:

Just don't get magnesium oxide (which is common and cheap)
It is not absorbed.

The mag thread of mine gives other choices, and dosing.

Start with that, and use your other multivits as well for starters.
Go for about 1/2 the RDA at 200mg a day.
