I first took a preparation that includud Vitamin B6. I woke up throughout 
the night each night. I switched to a brand without B6 and sleep soundly 
every night since. 

I also happen to be hypersensitive to most stimulants...for example,
Nyquil keeps me awake all night because of the small amount of stimulants 
in it. Don't know if this has a bearing on the B6 reaction or not.

Any speculation from the experts?
