ZMA 400 Capsules

ZMA isn't a sleep aid in the melatonin sense - it's a mineral restore. If you train hard, sweat regularly, and eat mostly modern food, you're almost certainly running low on at least one of zinc, magnesium, or B6. You might sleep "fine" and still wake up stiff, foggy, or under-recovered. ZMA is the floor - not a stimulant, not a knockout. Most lifters notice it in week two, not night one.

A standalone magnesium tablet covers one of the three minerals. ZMA covers the full original stack: 30mg zinc, 450mg magnesium, 10.5mg B6 - the dose ratio Victor Conte published the original ZMA research on. B6 isn't filler - it helps both zinc and magnesium do their job. If you're already taking magnesium and want to add a separate zinc, you can - but you'll spend more, take more pills, and end up at the same place.

Three capsules per serve deliver 30mg zinc (monomethionine/aspartate), 450mg elemental magnesium (aspartate), and 10.5mg vitamin B6 (pyridoxine HCL). No melatonin. No proprietary blend. No fillers worth flagging. The full ingredient list and per-cap breakdown is on the label.

Yes. All three actives are non-animal. Capsule shell is vegetarian-grade. Check the label for the most recent confirmation if you're strict.

One hour before bed, on an empty stomach. The pre-bed timing is important - that's when your body is moving into its biggest repair window. Empty stomach is important because calcium (in dairy especially) competes with zinc for absorption and can cut it in half. So no protein shake, no glass of milk, no calcium-fortified anything with this dose.

No. ZMA isn't a sedative. You won't feel a "weight come down" the way melatonin or a sleeping pill works. What most users describe is falling asleep slightly faster within the first week, and waking up clearer - not heavy, not foggy. If you're sensitive, take it 90 minutes before bed instead of 60. If you're after a sedative, this isn't the product.

Calcium blocks zinc uptake - they compete for the same absorption pathway in the gut. Dairy is the biggest source, but any calcium-fortified food or supplement is enough to drop your zinc uptake significantly. Empty stomach an hour before bed is also when magnesium is best absorbed without competing iron or zinc from a meal. Two minerals, one timing rule, one big improvement in what actually gets to your bloodstream.

Stack creatine and protein freely during the day - they don't interact with ZMA. The one rule: don't take your ZMA with a protein shake, milk, or any calcium-containing food. Take ZMA on its own at the pre-bed window. Pre-workout is fine - different time of day entirely.

You can, but it's not really necessary. ZMA supports your body's own melatonin pathway - taking exogenous melatonin on top is doubling up on the same outcome with a clumsier tool. If you've been on melatonin for months and want to come off without losing sleep quality, ZMA is a reasonable bridge. Test it for a week solo before you decide.

No. These are minerals your body needs every day regardless. There's no down-regulation the way there is with stimulants or pro-hormones. Plenty of customers take it year-round. The only time to pause is if your bloodwork shows your zinc levels are running high - in which case talk to a GP, drop the dose, or take a break.

60-day money-back guarantee. Run it for two months - that's well inside the window where mineral status improves and sleep + recovery changes show up.
