I don’t tend to recommend many supplements for guys over 40, especially if their lifestyle habits aren’t fixed yet.

But I do always recommend ZMA for most guys over 40 for:

  • natural testosterone production and
  • better quality sleep (and therefore stress control).

But here’s the thing I discovered about the standard forms of Zinc, Magnesium, and Vitamin B6 used in most Z MA products:

they are pretty cr*p.

So as a 49-year-old man (and health coach) wanting to stay fit and healthy, I donned my Mad Professor Hat and decided to build my own better ‘Frankenstein’ version of ZMA.

Let me explain why I felt that standard ZMA could be improved upon, and how you can copy me for better results.

How We Waste Our Money On Cr*ppy Supplements

After 30 years of working out and buying ultimately useless supplements I’ve learned the hard (expensive!) way that the forms of nutrients matter just as much as the nutrients themselves.
