Ultimate Nutrition ZMA is a non-steroidal, all-natural dietary supplement to increase strength in training , without the undesirable side-effects or prohormones. Cortisol, the catabolic "stress" hormone, is involved in the breakdown of muscle tissue. ZMA increases physical endurance, a decrease in muscle cramps and strains, faster healing from injuries, improved mental concentration and alertness, decreased water retention, and deeper more restful sleep. Ultimate Nutrition ZMA contains a unique combination of Zinc and Magnesium ingredients plus Vitamin B6, which was specifically designed to improve Zinc and Magnesium status in training athletes and to enhance muscle strength, endurance, healing, recovery and growth. Zinc deficiency has been linked to increased estrogen levels, and may elder sex hormone receptors. Zinc with Vitamin B6 inhibits the production of DHT (Dehydrotestosteron). Magnesium, a major mineral is essential for the production of energy by both aerobic and anaerobic metabolism. A deficiency in magnesium can cause muscle weakness and cramps. Magnesium supplementation has also been shown to increase muscle strength. Zinc absorption is increased by amino acids and when taken on an empty stomach, and decreased by calcium, iron, manganese, selenium and copper. Magnesium absorption is increased by Vitamin D and decreased by calcium and sodium. That is one reason why Ultimate Nutrition ZMA is recommended to be taken 30-60 minutes before bedtime on an empty stomach. Another reason for taking Ultimate Nutrition ZMA before bedtime is that the body's anabolic muscle-building processes take place at night when the body is at rest. Within 90 minutes of taking Ultimate Nutrition ZMA , circulating levels of Zinc and Magnesium reach their peak, providing the essential minerals necessary to support muscle growth and repair. Another favorable side effect reported by those taking Ultimate Nutrition ZMA is that the product promotes sleep, which is vital for recovery and regeneration following physical stress.
Recommended intake: As a dietary supplement, take 3 capsules 30 to 60 minutes prior to bedtime. For best results, avoid taking with calcium containing foods or supplements.
Caution: ZMA is not recommended for females. Oral intake of ZMA may support free and total testosterone levels in most individuals for a transitory period lasting two to three hours. ZMA is an non-steroidal alternative to prohormone products.
