I take vitamin D (4000 iu) and B12 (2000 mcg) in the morning, and melatonin (900 mcg) and magnesium citrate (400 mg) at night. They seemed to be the things that helped the most with my health and mood.
I've tried a really long list of things because of health issues, and stopped most of them because taking too many things is hard for me and they didn't seem to make a significant difference.
Is there a reason to take magnesium citrate at night and not in the morning?
It helps with sleep, so I prefer to take it right before bed.
Why 900 rather than 1000? Do you have pills that size? Where did you find them?
Or are you taking 3 pills, each 300mcg? If so, did you work your way up to 3 pills?
I just take 3 of the 300mcg pills. I tried them since a lot of people do much better with a smaller amount but it wasn't enough to take just one or two so I went up to three and I'll stick with that until I run out and then I'll get a more convenient size.
Do you take B12 because you are a vegan, or regardless?
I take it because I have Celiac disease so I have a reduced ability to process it. I take methylcobalamin with methyfolate sublingually since that's the most bioavailable way.
