Side Effects & Safety of Building Blocks

Updated over 2 weeks ago

Building Block Supplements are designed to be generally well-tolerated, but individual responses can vary. This section outlines high-level safety considerations so you know what to expect and when to reach out to your clinician.


General Tolerability

Most people tolerate Building Blocks without issues. Because they are nutritional supplements—not medications—the overall safety profile is broad. However, some individuals may experience mild sensitivity when adding new supplements to their routine.

Possible experiences can include:

  • Mild digestive discomfort

  • Temporary nausea

  • Changes in stool patterns

  • Fullness or bloating if taken too quickly or on an empty stomach

These effects often fade as your body adapts.

If symptoms persist, worsen, or feel unusual, message your clinician.


Interactions & Other Supplements

If you are taking:

  • Vitamins or minerals

  • Herbal supplements

  • Pre-workout or performance blends

  • Over-the-counter products

  • Medications from another provider

inform your clinician.

Even though supplements are typically safe to combine, your clinician needs a full picture of what you’re taking to ensure everything is appropriate for your health profile.


Existing Medical Conditions

Tell your clinician if you have:

  • Digestive conditions

  • Kidney or liver concerns

  • Allergies or sensitivities

  • Dietary restrictions

  • A history of reactions to supplements

This helps them determine whether Building Blocks are a good fit for you and whether any adjustments are needed.


When to Contact Your Clinician

You should message your clinician if you experience:

  • Persistent digestive discomfort

  • New or unexpected symptoms

  • Concerns about how the supplements fit into your routine

  • Questions about combining Building Blocks with other protocols

Your clinician can provide high-level guidance based on your health profile.


When to Seek Immediate Care

Building Blocks are not associated with emergency-level reactions for most individuals. However, if you experience symptoms such as severe allergic reactions, difficulty breathing, or symptoms that escalate quickly, seek immediate in-person medical care.


Storage & Handling

Follow the storage instructions on each product. In general:

  • Keep supplements in a cool, dry place

  • Avoid exposing them to excessive heat or moisture

  • Keep containers firmly sealed

  • Keep out of reach of children

If a product arrives damaged or compromised, please take photographs of the relevant items and Support can help arrange a replacement.


Compatibility With Maximus Protocols

Building Blocks are commonly used alongside:

  • Testosterone Optimization

  • Weight Loss Protocol

  • Hair Improvement

  • Blood Flow Protocol

Your clinician will confirm compatibility based on your symptoms, labs, and overall routine.
