What each one is for
- Magnesium (glycinate) — relaxation and muscle function; gentle on the stomach.
- ZMA — zinc, magnesium and vitamin B6 taken before bed.
- Melatonin — helps you fall asleep, useful for jet lag or shifted schedules; use the lowest effective dose.
- Ashwagandha — may help with stress and sleep quality.
Habits first
Stop caffeine 8 hours before bed (evening trainers: choose a stim-free pre-workout), keep the room cool and dark, and aim for 7–8 hours. Ask your doctor before melatonin if you take other medication.
Frequently asked questions
What is ZMA good for?
ZMA (zinc, magnesium, B6) is taken before bed to support sleep quality and help correct low zinc or magnesium, which is common in people who sweat a lot.
Is melatonin safe to take every night?
It is widely used short-term at low doses, but check with your doctor for long-term use or if you take other medication.
