SSA ZMA - Product Review

SSA Supplements brings you their version of supplement that has been around in the supplement market for quite a number of years. ZMA supplements have purported to have quite a number of extraordinary benefits that assist greatly in muscle building endeavours.

About the products:

ZMA is just a shortened abbreviation for the individual ingredients contained within the supplement itself. In this case, those ingredients are the following:

  • Zinc
  • Magnesium
  • Vitamin B6

The typical make up of each ingredient per serving is as follows:

  • Zinc = 30mg
  • Magnesium = 450mg
  • Vitamin B6 = 10-11mg

SSA Supplements’ version of this is no different, so you can trust that you are getting the tried and tested make up of a well-beloved product.

Usability:

There are many claims behind the use of ZMA’s and the jury is slightly out on how useful they actually are. Studies conducted on this product are inconclusive with some showing great results and others either showing placebo effects or very little practical effects.

In cases where people find that they have a deficiency in either zinc or magnesium (or both), their bodies may have a reduction in natural production of testosterone. We all know that testosterone is absolutely vital in the pursuit of building muscle and plays a pivotal role in IGF-1 production and growth and recovery.

In today’s day and age where a lot of food is quickly processed and fast packaged, getting an adequate amount of zinc and magnesium may be difficult. Getting in a solid dose of ZMA’s daily may help quickly remedy this shortfall, boost your natural testosterone production, and have the cascade of aftereffects follow, such as growth in muscle mass and boosts in muscular and athletic performance.

On top of these uses, ZMA’s may also provide benefits in helping your body optimize its immunity health, as well as improve the quality of your sleep. Both are necessary to ensure that you are always performing at your best so that you can work hard enough in the gym, stimulate new muscle growth, and recover well enough to see that muscular development.

Dosages:

The cool thing about this product this - experts recommend that you take up to 30mg of zinc and 400mg of magnesium a day to reap the full benefits of these ingredients. SSA Supplements ZMA provides you with exactly that, making sure you get what you need on a daily basis. The serving size is 3 tablets, and you get everything you need in that single serving. Additionally, the bottle contains 90 capsules so this product will last you for about a month.

Rating:

This SSA Supplements ZMA scores a solid 3.5 out of 5 for me. Despite the claimed use of ZMA’s, this product provides you with the right amount of each individual ingredient and I am a very strong proponent of taking zinc, magnesium and vitamin B6 daily for their individual benefits alone. SSA Supplements ZMA is also great value for money so it definitely will find its place in the everyday gym goers’ household.
