Jack3d Side Effects that You may Experience

Jack3d side effects are not as pronounced as those that you may have experienced with other workout supplements. Still, it is better to be informed of the potential side effects of taking Jack3d and err on the safe side.

Jack3d side effects on sleep

Caffeine is a strong stimulant. Coffee perks us up in the morning while soda adds a jolt of energy to an otherwise sluggish day. It is this stimulating effect of caffeine that makes Jack3d a powerful pre-workout energy booster. Within a few minutes of taking Jack3d you’ll start getting in the zone, feeling an added bounce to your step and a little extra oomph on those arm lifts.

Caffeine is good when used properly – meaning within the safe quantity limits and during periods that do not interfere with sleep. A healthy adult can tolerate up to 300mg of caffeine per day. Any more than that can cause palpitations, nervousness, restlessness, insomnia, muscle twitching, irritability, anxiety, headaches, and nausea. All of these side effects can make you toss and turn in bed, effectively disrupting your sleep.

Although the 3-scoop recommended dosage of Jack3d is right around the 300mg limit, you don’t want to take your serving too close to bedtime. If your schedule only permits you to work out at night, take Jack3d not later than 4 o’clock in the afternoon. This should give you the invigorating energy you need for that early evening workout without keeping you awake all night.

Jack3d side effects on hydration

Creatine is an excellent bodybuilding supplement because it keeps your muscles hydrated. But drawing water into your muscles also means taking water away from the rest of your body.

Some users report problems with urination after taking creatine. There seems to be significant evidence linking creatine to the development of kidney stones, which can also be a result of dehydration and consuming a high protein diet.

There’s probably no need to worry about creatine in Jack3d because the amount per serving is very minimal. Still, the best way to combat dehydration is to drink lots of liquid during and after your workout.

Jack3d side effects on drug testing

The manufacturers of Jack3d maintain that no banned substance listed under the United States Controlled Substances Act is used in making Jack3d. That doesn’t mean you will never fail a drug test.

Each organization, employer and league has its own testing platform and standard. The NCAA, for example, has banned all types of stimulants including caffeine. The World Anti-Doping Association (WADA) lists 1,3 dimethylamylamine or DMAA among its banned substances.

If you know you are due for drug screening, you probably need to get off Jack3d at least a week prior to the test to prevent a false positive result. Better yet, get a copy of the banned substance list from your tournament organizer or probation officer before risking Jack3d side effects.
