Lately I've been extraordinarily surprised at how effective potassium and potassium salt are. By which I mean that simple potassium is probably the most positively mind altering supplement I've ever tried.
Well, I can't say I've heard that one before; resources? And are you sure you simply didn't have a deficiency? Fixing a deficiency can have dramatic effects but be useless for everyone else (eg. that LWer who fell in love with sulbutiamine because he had B-vitamin problems, even though sulbutiamine is only a very mild stimulant to me).
I'm sure I was deficient but most people are deficient if they don't eat fruits and vegetables as a voluminous staple of their diet.
