ZMA is a vitamin and mineral compound that composes of zinc,magnesium, and vitamin B6. It is said that it increases your natural level of testosterone, the most important anabolic hormone in the body. Since most athletes and bodybuilders are defiecient in magnesium and zinc that supplementing in these two minerals would help. The down side is that taken together minerals compete for absorbtion. So taking a very potent multivitamin/mineral tablet may not correct this deficiency. Typically ZMA is taken in a ratio of zinc (30mg), magnesium (450mg), and vitiman B6 (11mg). The best time to take it is 30-60 minutes before bedtime on an empty stomach.

Just brought some ZMA from optimum nutrition.
It says;
SUGGESTED USE
As a dietary supplement, Men take 3
capsules (women take 2) daily on an
empty stomach, 30-60 minutes prior to
bedtime.

So does that mean 1 capsual 3 times a day or all 3 30-60 mins before bed?

Hey guys I just started taking ZMA a couple days ago and it appears as though it makes me restless and unable to fall asleep. Any opinions as to why this would be? I've only been taking it for a couple days and I take it 30-60 minutes before bed. Thanks for your input.
