Can Vitamins/supplements make you feel skaky and weak?

If anybody has information on this that would be great. It seems that sometimes after ingesting my vitamin pills, calcium, etc., I'll feel shaky and weak after, almost jittery.. REally bothersome feeling and I'm wondering if there's a correlation?

Thanks
Scott

Do you take any medication? Sometimes supplements can interfere with medication and cause a reaction, and sometimes people just can't tolerate certain supplements. You should stop taking those pills if you're having a reaction.

Zinc does that to me, or makes me nauseous. But not if I take it with food.

Yes!

About 5 years ago my manager casually handed me a couple of her vitamins when I mentioned an oncoming cold. I felt "high" within about 30 minutes and for the next 2ish hours.

Now, under a naturopath's care, I take ~20 different supplements and vitamins a day--a total of ~50-60 capsules. Out of what I tried, I cannot take GABA without experiencing dreams so intense I find it difficult getting up in the morning nor Armor Thyroid without experiencing palpitations--in fact, I simply don't take those two, since they defeat the whole purpose of my following a regimine to health.
