Zma
Hey guys,
who here is using or has used zma?
could someone tell me if they noticed any difference (i know what its meant to do, but just wondered how well it works)
as theres so many supplements claiming to do more than they really can
thanks

I am using and have used ZMA many times in the past. Personally I find that it helps me sleep better at night. Honeslty I notice a major difference in the quality of sleep which leaves me well rested and rejuvinated in the morning.
At the same time after I am done my existing bottle I am going to see if there is a price difference in buying the minerals separately.

As i was bored i did some math it comes out cheaper to buy the minerals by them selves
http://www.vitaminshoppe.com/browse/...e=SearchResult
B6 = 315 Mg
Magnesium = 13,500 Mg
Zinc = 900 Mg
30 Days = $13.77
http://www.vitaminshoppe.com/browse/...e=SearchResult
and
http://www.vitaminshoppe.com/browse/...e=SearchResult
B6 = 825 Mg
Magnesium = 13,200 Mg
33 Days = $4.46
Zinc = 5,000 Mg
100 Days = $4.17
so it comes out to about $8.63 for a 33 day supply of ZMA and with 67 days left over of zinc.. i've been having sleep problems im going to Vitamin shoppe and cop it tommorow..

I take ZMA for the sleep benefits alone. It does very little to nothing in regards to strength increases for me.

First, EAS is a nutrition company "Engineered and Applied Science" I believe...it's Bill Phillips's company - they make Myoplex shakes and all sorts of other supps.
Secondly, ZMA is just minerals - minerals that are necessary in your diet anyway - you're just taking a certain amount at a certain time (right before bed)...hard to believe it would actually cause cancer.

I forgot to add...I've used ZMA previously, and I just ordered some more...i definitely sleep better while on it...and for some reason, i seem to have more vivid dreams...i don't know how it's related...but, who knows...i like it though.

i like ZMA for sleep. I have never had a sleep problem but ZMA makes me feel very rejuvinated in the morning, like I slept 8 hours after only realy sleeping 5 hours.
