Comments about Optimum Nutrition ZMA, 180 Capsules:

I have been on this now for a little over a month now and am not totally sold on it yet. I haven't really noticed any change at all. It is almost like taking placebo pill. Time will tell as I finish the bottle.

ZMA is to be taken at night. I ususally wake up feeling more relaxed and like I had a better nights sleep. Muscles feel pretty good as well in the mornings. Really nice product

ZMA from Optimum Nutrition is awesome! I take this product every night before bed and fall asleep knowing my workout benefits will continue as I sleep. If you aren't taking ZMA already, order it now and start Yo! Plus, it's very affordable and the benefits are great too!

Comments about Optimum Nutrition ZMA, 180 Capsules:

to be very frank, i was a little afraid to take this after reading a couple of reviews online about getting nightmares but i gave it a try and i am glad i did.
Though I got nightmares first 2 nights and could not sleep properly but I think it was the first time i took ZMA so dont mind that at all. After those first 2 nights i am sleeping really well and i am relaxed and happy in the morning when i wake up as compared to my mornings earlier when i felt like i am too tired to get out of my bed and always lethargic.
This product definitely helps in recovery, gives peace of mind and keep you relaxed. I dont know if it helps in muscle building or not but it definitely helps me recover and relax.
I don't think i am going away from ZMA ever.
not just because it helps in muscle recovery but also because it helps me sleep better.

The truth about ZMA: for starters you should first ask yourself why you are taking ZMA. Most people consider ZMA to be a testosterone booster due to zinc increasing testosterone production. However this is not the case. Firstly, there is no scientific evidence to suggest that taking ZMA boosts testosterone levels and effects performance in the gym. And secondly, in males your body must maintain a balance between you anabolic hormones (e.g. Insulin, Testosterone, HGH) and your catabolic hormones. IF you increase your anabolic hormones (in particular testosterone) they end up converting into catabolic hormones (estrogen). That's why if you look at the proper testosterone boosters out there they contain anti-estrogen ingredients.

So why should you be taking ZMA? Well most basically, studies have shown that athletes or people who undergo alot of physical activity throughout the day tend to have deficiencies in both Zinc and Magnesium. So ZMA ensures your body has sufficient amounts of both Zinc and Magnesium. So as concise as possible here is why ZInc and Magnesium are important and what they do.

Zinc:
- increased production of testosterone
- strengthening of the immune system
- maintains blood cholesterol levels
- is essential for cell division, growth and repair

And for Magnesium:
- increase energy production
- protein and fat synthesis
- contraction and relaxation of skeletal muscle
- involved in over 329 enzyme reactions
- improved sleeping ability
- reduces blood pressure
- prevents cramping

So clearly ZMA is something you would want to consider if you're frequently exercising. THis does help you get a deeper sleep. If you already dream alot i'd most probably think twice about purchasing this. A friend of mine started taking ZMA and because he was already getting deep sleeps he was now having "f**ked up" (excuse my French but that's literally what he said) dreams which caused him to wake up aggravated and stressed.

Take as directed and do not take more (I would list side effects of too much ZMA but you can find that on Google).

Most definitely worth the money you pay for it and i seriously recommend.
