ZMA
The proportion of ingredients generally used in products is 20-30 mg Zinc and 400-500 mg Magnesium. This supplement should never be taking with calcium, as calcium blocks the absorption of Zinc, and any ZMA that has calcium in it should be avoided. ZMA should also be taken before bed on an empty stomach (2 hours after eating your last meal and at least 30 minutes prior to any other supplements).
Cite sources? Yes I am aware that calcium does cut off zinc but only at a certain extent (in excess of 2.5grams) otherwise very little difference.
Confused
Is this article trying to induce a sales pitch? --Raddicks 19:45, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
Edit
It has been proven that ZMA works on people, your body needs zinc, magnesium and b2,b6 and b12 to produce testosterone and insulin growth hormone.
please read study's before making such comment, every story has 2 sides.

agree
While the lead paragraph with Balco and Conte does seem a bit commercial, it is historically accurate. I don't see a sales pitch in any of the other information provided.
Also agree, has worked well in practice for me for 5 years now, can tell a difference in at least the lucidity of dreams in periods when I take it and when I don't.
