yesterday was mt first day on ZMA. i woke up this morning with energy and all. what experiences have u guys had and what should i expect from ZMA alone
 
my friend always uses ZMA, says he gets better sleep, wakes up more refreshed, and his energy in the gym is good
 
Hey ju1ced you take that too?! What do you take?! it seems to be working for you! Come on... share the wealth (through word of mouth)! ...PLEASE! lol

And what form of zma do you take by what company and isnt zmk supposed to be better due to the ingredients put in from the manus?!
 
ZMA has a wierd affect on me. If I don't take Melatonin with it, it will actually keep me awake. I didn't notice any other benefits from taking it. From the good comments I've seen in forums, it may have just been the brand I was taking. I have a bottle of Optimum Nut ZMA I plan to start later this week.

As mentioned in your thread in the Female Fitness subforum, ZMA is safe for females to use; Zinc, Magenesium, and Vitamin B6 (which is what ZMA is) are all fine to use and many people supplement with these or use some sort of product that includes only these three vitamins and minerals. However, as mentioned, you should find out and fix the cause of your girlfriend's sleep disturbances instead of immediately looking for a supplement to do it.

i take glutatime, b12, fish oil, and milk thistle. plus i take serious mass which has alot of vitamins and minerals in it
 
Does this effect sleep like other sleep aids such as nyquil do? Like do i have to make sure i leave myself x amount of hours to sleep and become stable before opertaing machinery/driving/etc.?! I heard zmk is a better formula of zma. True or false?! if so, than why still make zma?!

Unfortunately, I have the same issue with ZMA with ANY brand that I've ever tried. Can't sleep and when I do, dreams are vivid enough that they wake me up.

I've dosed ZMA thoughout the day between meals. It didn't have the negative effect on my sleep with that dosing strategy.

Regardless of dosing, I've never experienced any benefit whatsoever with dosing ZMA.

For me, no not all. It does not help me fall asleep. It does not help me stay asleep. It does not help sleep quality for me.

The supplement that has helped with ALL of those issues for me is tryptophan. I've used NP's bulk caps and a few other off brand tabs, all of which worked very well.
