Description

Dietary supplement that combines zinc, magnesium, and vitamin B6 in a high-absorption formula that contributes to the maintenance and increase of muscle strength.

Benefits

  • ZMA is a combination of zinc, magnesium, and vitamin B-6 designed to maximize absorption and promote recovery from exercise.
  • Zinc plays a central role in regulating cellular growth and tissue repair, as well as maintaining a healthy immune system.
  • Magnesium is essential for maintaining electrolyte balance, energy production, and normal neuromuscular function.
  • Because physical activity can increase the need for these two minerals, ZMA is the appropriate supplement to help replenish them.
  • ZMA is a trademark of SNAC System, Inc. San Carlos, CA 94070.

Recommended Dosage

For men

  • Take 3 capsules daily, preferably on an empty stomach, 30-60 minutes before bedtime. 
  • For best results, avoid taking with dairy or other foods or supplements containing calcium.

For women

  • Take 2 capsules daily, preferably on an empty stomach, 30-60 minutes before bedtime.
  • For best results, avoid taking with dairy or other foods or supplements containing calcium.

Nutritional Value & Ingredients

3 vegetable capsules provide on average:

  • Vitamin B-6 (from Pyridoxine HCl) 15 mg
  • Magnesium (elemental) (from Magnesium Aspartate and Magnesium Oxide) 450 mg
  • Zinc (elemental) (from Zinc Mono-L-methionine, Zinc Aspartate and Zinc Oxide) 30 mg

Other ingredients: Hypromellose (cellulose capsule), Rice Flour and Stearic Acid (vegetable source).

  • Not manufactured with wheat, gluten, soy, milk, egg, fish, shellfish or tree nut ingredients. Produced in a GMP facility that processes other ingredients containing these allergens.

It is perhaps the only one, and I say perhaps because obviously I do not have knowledge of all the magnesium supplements on the market, but with the data so far, it is the only one where the type of magnesium it contains is not fully magnesium oxide but also has aspartate magnesium, which is one of the good qualities. That’s why it has such good reviews and makes a difference! Before you buy either magnesium oxide or plain magnesium, ask about the type of magnesium, because magnesium oxide has very low absorption by the body and in simple terms, it doesn’t work!

No difference. It is preferable for someone to take magnesium and zinc separately from other supplement companies.

    Now Foods' ZMA is one of the most reliable supplements for recovery. I take 3 capsules (the recommended dose) about 30-60 minutes before sleep on an empty stomach (note: keep away from dairy/calcium, as they compete for absorption).

    Sleep quality: I sleep more deeply, wake up fewer times, and in the morning I feel rested and not like a "zombie."

    Muscle recovery: Delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) after hard training has noticeably decreased. The next day I am more ready for a new workout.

    Mood: Less fatigue and nervousness during the day.

    The 800mg dose is ideal. Vitamin B6 helps with absorption. The capsules are easy to swallow (medium-sized) and do not leave a strange taste.

    Now Foods is a guarantee for quality. The 90-capsule package lasts 30 days (3 capsules/day) – it is more economical than ZMA from other companies.

    Overall, I highly recommend it to anyone who trains intensively (weightlifting, crossfit, football, running) and wants to improve sleep and recovery.

    very good supplement, provided that you take it at least 2 hours after your last meal of the day, avoiding anything that contains calcium (e.g. dairy products), also due to the zinc it contains, it would be good to take copper with your lunch

    Meh... so-so... it doesn't help me have a continuous uninterrupted sleep... and not 3 pills as it says... with 2! With 3, forget it... I see dinosaurs and wake up every hour! hehe For recovery, OK! I don't feel/see a big difference! I don't think I'll buy it again. 1st bad product (for me at least) from Now Foods.

    Very good, however, because many people don't know, they believe that due to the magnesium you should take it at night, which is wrong because the type of magnesium in this supplement is not relaxing but stimulating! It is indicated for muscle recovery but does not have a relaxing character!

    Excellent product for recovery after intense exercise with resistance (weights). It works very well for me and helps a lot with grip and cramps. We take up to 3 capsules daily preferably before bedtime. It also works slightly as a relaxant as it contains magnesium.
