ZMA-5 is the next generation in recovery and sleep aid supplementation. This innovative new formula combines ZMA with the amino acid 5-hydroxytryptophan (5-HTP) to support a synergistic combination of ingredients. The zinc, magnesium and vitamin B-6 contained in ZMA are all three co-factors in the conversion of 5-HTP to the hormone serotonin, a neurotransmitter that supports the regulation of mood and sleep.* A precise amount of folic acid has also been added to ZMA-5 to further promote the bioavailability and conversion of 5-HTP to serotonin.* The normalization of serotonin levels during sleep may help to support a positive mood upon waking from a deep and restful sleep.*
5-HTP has been suggested to increase REM (rapid eye movement) sleep while simultaneously promoting SWS or slow-wave sleep (deep sleep stages 3 and 4) and without increasing the duration of total sleep time.*
The benefits of REM sleep have been suggested to include cognitive function enhancements such as improved problem solving ability and memory. Adequate SWS and REM sleep are both essential to the various functions of the sleep process.
Magnesium has been suggested to support the depth and duration of slow-wave sleep and also without change to total sleep time.*
It is extremely important for athletes to get a deep and restful sleep because this is when recovery, muscle tissue repair, anabolic hormone production and muscle growth are maximized.*
This novel ZMA-5 formula promotes all of the proven benefits of the precise dosages and ratios of the ingredients contained in ZMA plus the added synergistic and powerful effects of 5-HTP to help support the next generation of recovery and sleep enhancement supplementation.*
