wet dreams from ZMA...

[Singleton]

It has been said that other forms of Zinc can be substituted for a fraction of the cost. Personally, I haven't tried those other forms of zinc, but I do like ZMA.

I bought Optimum ZMA 180 caps Never splooged my sheets in my sleep(ever), but I've woken up too horny to go back to sleep.

I usually wake up with big hardons. Sometimes I have those flying dreams and sometimes I have dreams where everything is crazy and I'm laughing. I love those!

I may notice more of a difference on/off than others because I don't have much zinc in my diet. Results may vary.

How old are you? I haven't had a wet dream since I was 13. I mean I've woken up many a night with a raging hardon from a dream, but never actually had an orgasm as a result. I've worken up and that way and either came within 15 seconds after waking up the girl next to me to fuck, because I was so turned on, but never while sleeping. LoL Anyone else?

I took this for awhile and the morning wood was there standing proud makes it a bitch to take a piss in the morning.

I sleep better when I take ZMA before sleep, no problem waking up.

i agree....i only take it when i am not on the juice.....

Can anyone explain why you sleep better on ZMA? or is it just a palcibo(spelling) effect? yhanx for your time

I sleep like a corpse with ZMA. Also it gives me very vivid and crazy dreams. I wake up with a rock hard dick that could like hold 4 45lbs plates on it.

It does also give me crazy wet dreams, and I am older than most of the people on this board. This sup gets props from me, and i've continue using it.

isn't it too high to dose? i saw it recommends 3 pills before bed time isn't zinc like iron when you take too much is bad for you like poison?

hmm, FDA is 15mg, so if you take ZMA every night(~30mg), plus a multivitamin (another ~10-20mg), plus eat food in the day (lets say 5-15mg) you are going to be getting a pretty fucking large amount of zinc in your diet. Apparantly thats not too good for copper absorbtion + your immune system.

FDA for magnesium is 400mg, so 300 from ZMA probably wont hurt, especially given that there really aren't any reported side effects of "overconsumption" of magnesium.

FDA for b-6 is 2mg, but you arent really going to cause any problems unless you start getting into triple digits, so that should be fine

i didn't know that about zinc. i always thought that about 50mg daily of zinc was beneficial for the immune system and recovery. even though the RDA for zinc is 15mg daily, i'm sure it's much higher for intense weight training individuals. by the way, i am 26 years old and have very seldomly had wet dreams in my life. this is why i posted this, it's damn freaky! it definitely has to do with the "vivid" dreams everyone experiences with this supplement and maybe some "vivid video" too!

whats a good dose for sleep purposes...and does it have to be taken on an empty stomach? I eat 30 minutes prior to bed.

ZMA gives me wild dreams, no wet dreams but very vivid. I read somewhere the Magnesium is what causes the relaxing effect and wild dreams. There is a ton of information on the supplement board.

Ideally you want to take it on an empty stomach and stay away from calcium products because they can affect absorption. So if you plan on making your own with Zinc/Multivitamin you need to make sure your multivitamin doesn't contain calcium. Also you can get your zinc from diet, but depending on what you eat your body may not be able to fully absorb it. Also intensive training requires more for recovery.

People talk about it being cheaper to make your own, but I figure it is too much hassle at the end of the night to worry about dosages so I just stick with premade ZMA.
