ZMA

Zinc is an essential mineral your body does not make on its own, therefore must be consumed via foods. Milk products and wholegrain foods are good sources of zinc. Studies show zinc helps with immune system and metabolism function and can help with wound healing. Zinc’s role in reducing the frequency of illness is well documented in research, along with its ability to support optimal levels of testosterone (a bonus feature).

Magnesium is a nutrient that regulates and facilitates many of the body’s physical functions, including over 300 enzyme reactions in the human body. It is one of the seven essential macrominerals of which we require large amounts. It produces energy, transports micronutrients throughout the body, regulates blood pressure, cholesterol and blood glucose, and acts as an electrolyte.

Vitamin B6 is one of six B vitamins. B vitamins are essential for breaking down the nutrients within food and ensuring your body utilising the energy effectively. Studies show that vitamin B6 in particular can improve mood, promote brain health and function and result in a stronger immune system.

Insomnia is a symptom commonly linked with magnesium deficiency. ZMA is rich in magnesium which contributes to a reduction of tiredness and fatigue, ideal for allowing the body to rest and therefore, recover from tough training sessions. More stable levels of magnesium have been shown to support a more restful, restorative sleep.

B6 vitamins support brain function with Serotonergic Neurotransmission and Dopaminergic Neurotransmission being shown to be supported by B6 vitmains. Magnesium is critical to preserving neuronal function during periods of downtime, when the neurons are not firing. A deficiency of Magnesium in the brain (which tends to only occur during chronic deprivation of dietary magnesium) makes cells have more activation during periods where they are not intentionally activated. In effect, the Magnesium assists reducing brain activity that is unwarranted nor required. True's zinc and magnesium supplement is a great addition to your stack for recovery and overall health & wellbeing.
