And I never get headaches. Every time I take a dose I get a splitting one right in the middle of my forehead and I feel disoriented. I stopped taking it to see if it would stop and it did, thought it was coincidence but I just took a dose about 30 min ago and let me tell you its hard to type this..
Anyone else have this problem???

If you're not taking it with food, try that.
The only side effect I have noticed so far is some nasty ass burps. Only when I take it without food.

Any history of headaches?? What is the timing of the headache in relation to the intake?? Any other supplements on board currently??

No history of headaches, which is why this was weird to me too.. the headaches are about 20 minutes after I take a dose of 2 caps.. The only other supplements im taking are creatine, my protein powders of course, animal pak, gut health and fish oil.. but ive been taking those all for as long as I can remember with no problems.Originally Posted by uhockey

Take one at a time and reassess.

Icariin at times has given me headaches, but usually only at high doses. I'd say you eventually be able to take 2 caps without issue... maybe just a tolerance adjustment issue if it is at all related to the AX.

That is very odd. I get miserable migraines so usually if something is going to give headaches I always get it but I dont with the new ACTX. In theory the pycnogenol would prolong the increases in NO from divanil and icariin. That may be a possibility. Try reducing or splitting the dose and take it with food. Keep us updated with what is going on.

Some stupid question: some people are saying, that they didn't feel any effects from one pack of previous version of ACTX. Is there any improvements in that area?

I believe you are referring to the slow-nature of the build-up/kick-in of the product.Originally Posted by msauka
The new one most definitely kicks in faster. Still, I like to run 2 bottles in a row to get maximum benefit (4 on, 1-2 off, 4 on).NSCA-CSCS and CPT

FYI the 1x1x1x1 method eliminated my headache problem.
Thanks for the help everyone
