What is ZMA

ZMA are a supplement made up of a blend of Zinc Monomethionine Aspartate (30mg), Magnesium Aspartate(450mg), and Vitamin B6(10.5mg). These nutrients have been shown in research to be depleted by physical exercise therefore the supplementation of ZMA can be beneficial. ZMA were created because hard training athletes often do not take in enough of these important nutrients for muscle growth and have a higher demand for them due to the stresses of training. ZMA are said to be responsible for the regulation of hormones such as testosterone, growth hormone, and cortisol levels. Any deficiency of such nutrients does not provide a healthy and optimal environment for the body to keep hormonal levels in balance and functioning to there full capacity.

How to take ZMA?

ZMA are best taken 30 minutes prior to sleep on an empty stomach. Men should administer a dose of 3 capsules and women a dose of 2 capsules, respectively. Do not intake any calcium or food containing calcium within 30 minutes of taking ZMA or the zinc may be rendered useless.

What to stack it with?

ZMA stacks very well with supplements such as GABA, and melatonin. This stack should provide a much deeper more restful state of sleep and increase levels of growth hormone. ZMA alone are said to raise energy levels by promoting a deeper sleep therefore this stack would be optimal for periods of dieting where sleep quality suffers.

Benefits?

Muscle Building- ZMA is shown in research to keep levels of testosterone, and growth hormone elevated. These hormones are very important to recovery and growth and keeping these levels optimal will provide greater gains in muscle mass and improved recovery.

Fat Loss-ZMA can promote a sense of deeper sleep therefore they will allow the individual to have more rest while in states of stress such as dieting, and caloric restriction. Also an increase in levels of growth hormone that ZMA can raise has been shown to increase lipolysis (burning of body fat).

General Health- ZMA are very good for overall health as they ensure you are getting enough of the essential nutrients you need to keep your body growing and healthy. Any defiency of nutrients especially zinc can drastically reduce energy levels and have catastrophic effects on the body. ZMA ensures the proper nutrients are available to the muscle so such depletion does not occur. The Vitamin B6 contained in ZMA have many health benefits such as increased neural function, greater resistance to stress, increased red blood cell count, and improved energy utilization.
