Supplements Causing Low Blood Sugar

Hi, I've been taking these supplements lately:

  • Kirkland Organic Multivitamin
  • Apple Cider Vinegar/Manuka Honey
  • Black Seed Oil
  • Vitamin K2 100MCG MK-7
  • Physicians Choice Thin 30 Probiotic
  • Moringa
  • Baking Soda Capsules
  • Cayenne Complex (Extract)
  • Ashitaba
  • Sea Moss + Bladderwrack
  • Quercetin
  • Cranberry Concentrate
  • Apricot Extract
  • Maca Root
  • Korean Ginseng
  • Ginko Biloba

I'm taking these for various reasons, mostly preventative, to keep blood sugar/pressure regulated, keep kidneys healthy (some relatives having kidney issues had me paranoid and increased awareness of the fragility of them, plus the stats on people with kidney disease), The bladderwrack for bladder repair for years of kratom use (peeing very often). Quercetin for immune system support, which has helped me not get sick.

I have a few questions

1. Do any of these counteract each other?

The reason I'm making this post is because recently after eating my blood sugar has gotten too low (a bit of dizzyness), I tested it 15 min after eating dinner and dessert and it was 115.

A lot of these have the same effect of lowering blood sugar, so it seems to have gotten too low after eating by taking all of these

2. Which ones should I cut out if I had to?

Thanks

Make a chart with each supplement and list what each is supposed to help with. If any supplements duplicate lowering of blood sugar, decide which one to keep and ditch the others.

MY HUSBAND HAS DIABETES AND NONE OF YOUR SUPPLEMENTS is a big name here like BERBERINE or GYMNEA. ACV lowers BS but it with honey so it doesn't here.

take your supplement throughout the day. and check BS. was it on first and only day?

or you took them before/after and BS was ok.? maybe it was something else?
