ZMA supplements:

ZMA is a nutritional supplement that contains zinc monomethionine aspartate, magnesium aspartate, and vitamin B6. It’s typically taken to enhance athletic performance, improve sleep quality, or build muscle.

There is mixed evidence on ZMA’s effects on athletic performance. More human studies are needed in this area.

ZMA may improve your immunity, mood, sleep quality, and blood sugar control, especially if you’re deficient in any of the nutrients it contains.

Although its individual components are necessary for overall health, there is no evidence that ZMA can help you lose weight.

Supplement labels typically recommend three capsules or scoops of powder for men and two for women. Avoid consuming more ZMA than advised on the label.

ZMA is generally safe when taken at the recommended dosage, but taking too much may cause side effects.
