Optimum Nutrition, ZMA, 180 Capsules | Zinc Magnesium Aspartate Capsules, Zinc, Magnesium & Vitamin B6 Blend for Active Men & Women, Energy & Immune Support

very good product, one of the best ZMA in the market.

Product was already expired when I got it

Unethical trade, selling a product that's just 3 months to expiry

Ottimo prodotto, ottima marca

A great product that supports a demanding training regime. I know this works as I have come off it several times in the last two years and have noticed a drop in performance due to poorer recovery rates, this meant easing up on my training regime which I wasn't happy doing. Another benefit of this product is the noticeable assistance in quality sleep. My current work and training commitment means I only get 5-6 hours sleep a night and two 35 minute training session either end of a full days work, this product helps support this lifestyle which isn't bad considering I'm almost 50. Buy it, try it, you will surprised how effective it is.

Its good for those who exercise excessively among other benefits. I take this on heavy weight training days or especially after a long run day. Mag, Zinc and B6 are essentials and you can get them other places (foods) but this is a great supplement before bed. These doses although over 100% won't exceed what some consider excessive daily limits. Zinc is about the only one that reaches a lot of common limits. Again, if you eat a super healthy diet (who does) you could always just take two pills as a dose and still get the benefits. Again, I take on heavy training days or that evening before bed to be specific. If you are taking other supplements just read the labels to see which ones you are double dosing on. A few notes on these: Vitamin B6, also called pyridoxine, is a water-soluble nutrient that is part of the B vitamin family. B vitamins help support adrenal function, help calm and maintain a healthy nervous system, and are necessary for key metabolic processes. Vitamin B6 acts as a coenzyme in the breakdown and utilization of carbohydrates, fats and proteins. Vitamin B6 helps in the production of neurotransmitters, the chemicals that allow brain and nerve cells to communicate with one another, ensuring that metabolic processes such as fat and protein metabolism run smoothly, and is important for immune system function in older individuals. Magnesium is the fourth most abundant mineral in the body. A balanced diet usually supplies all the magnesium a person needs. Magnesium also helps maintain normal blood pressure and metabolism. Beyond that, a magnesium-rich diet may help protect against metabolic syndrome, a combination of risk factors that can lead to obesity, type 2 diabetes, and heart disease. ****Because all forms of magnesium can act as laxatives, I suggest taking it with some calcium to balance its effects. The forms I prefer are magnesium citrate, chelate, or glycinate. Avoid magnesium oxide, which can be irritating to the digestive tract. Zinc is a mineral that is necessary for the functioning of enzymes and plays a vital role in many biological processes, including the production of cells that help keep the body healthy.

Buono, ma va capito come usarlo.. ognuno deve fare un piccolo esperimento!

Reason for taking ZMA: to replenish magnesium and zinc levels after my high-intensity training sessions. Did it help me get to sleep faster: No Did it improve my sleep quality: Yes Were my dreams more vivid: Yes Did it give me nightmares: No Did I feel refreshed in the morning: Yes, but I didn't oversleep Confounding factors: I took ZMA right before bedtime, and after doing post-exercise yoga i.e., I was not tense when I went to bed. Had I not done yoga, I may have had nightmares, which for me, often occur during the nights when I go to bed with muscular tension. I do not take this supplement every night, so I've no idea whether the pharmacological effects of ZMA diminish with constant use. I am using ZMA only after high-intensity training sessions!
