I've read that chromium will lower cortisol which could make you tired if you are already low.
"Supplementing 200 mcg of chromium has been shown to reduce cortisol levels by 48%! Magnesium, vitamin C, and pantothenic acid further reduce this deadly hormone"
"The amino acid glutamine (250 to 500 mg up to three times daily) and the mineral chromium (200 mcg) supplemented regularly will also reduce cravings for sweets and starches caused by hypoglycemia by stabilizing delivery of sugar to the brain. To quickly break an irresistible craving, open the capsule of glutamine and place it under the tongue"
