"IMPROVE MUSCLE STRENGTH AND ANABOLIC HORMONE LEVELS"

ZMA is a scientifically designed mineral-support formula that can dramatically increase natural levels of anabolic hormones and improve athletic performance. In fact, if taken as recommended, ZMA can increase free testosterone by 30% while boosting IGF-1 levels significantly. Zinc and magnesium deficiencies are common in the general population and even more prevalent in athletes.

To illustrate the point, in 1998, the mineral status of over 250 NFL players was tested. Over 70% of the players were either depleted or deficient in both zinc and magnesium. It sounds almost unbelievable because of all the attention we give to good nutrition, but most athletes and active people and deficient in zinc and magnesium which results in decreased hormone levels and diminished strength and power.

The Causes of Zinc and Magnesium Deficiencies Why are we do deficient in zinc and magnesium? Probably the biggest reason is that vigorous exercise and stress results in significant mineral losses. And, to make matters worse, most ordinary types of zinc and magnesium are poorly absorbed - it's very difficult to recover proper amounts without specific supplementation.

The Solution ZMA is designed to combat these deficiencies. University studies have found that the zinc and magnesium contained in ZMA are absorbed far better than other forms. An independent ZMA study was recently conducted on competitive NCAA football players at Western Washington University. The results show that, in eight weeks, the ZMA group increased free and total testosterone levels by 30%, while the placebo group showed a decrease of 10%. The ZMA group also had a slight increase in IGF-1 levels compared to a 20% decrease in the placebo group. In addition to increasing anabolic-hormone levels, the ZMA group gained 2.5 times more strength and functional power over the placebo group. What to Expect. So, if you're an athlete, or you're under a lot of stress, you probably need extra zinc and magnesium to perform at your best.

And if you incorporate ZMA into your supplement program, odds are you'll attain the same kinds of increases in testosterone and GH production that many athletes have already experienced. Recommended Use Take three capsules a day for men, or two capsules a day for women, 30-60 minutes prior to bedtime. For best results, take on an empty stomach, or avoid taking with foods and supplements containing calcium.
