Using supplements to support sleep quality is another area worth exploring and one of the reasons Kinetica Sports Zinc Mag+ was created.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Article by Kinetica Sports &amp; Sean Prunty<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;#TeamKineticaSports&nbsp;are here&nbsp;to show&nbsp;you&nbsp;just how precious your zzzzzzz\u2019s are \u2013&nbsp;and how the right sleep supplements can help you get the rest you need to perform at your best.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Choosing the best zinc magnesium supplements<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As you\u2019ll see below, both zinc and magnesium have been shown to support sleep and exercise. Therefore, at a most basic level, the very best zinc magnesium supplements are expertly formulated to provide your body with a reliable source of these two minerals, to help improve your sleep and exercise performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kinetica Sports\u2019 Zinc Mag+ for instance,\u00a0is a scientifically designed blend of zinc and magnesium\u00a0\u2013 and a superb example of how you can\u00a0give your body\u00a0these valuable\u00a0nutrients before sleep.<br>Here are the top 3 benefits of our Zinc Mag+,\u00a0which we\u2019ll go into more detail below:\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Supports healthy sleep<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Supports recovery\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Supports immune function<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Supports Healthy Sleep<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>To start, did you know that your brain produces a natural hormone, in response to darkness, to make you sleepy? That hormone is called melatonin, which is secreted by the pineal gland in our brains. Studies have found that magnesium and zinc supplements can actually enhance melatonin secretion, which in turn, promotes sleepiness1.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a potent source of zinc and magnesium ,&nbsp;Kinetica\u2019s Zinc Mag+ can help you to relax and switch off and to get a good night\u2019s sleep.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Kinetica top tip<\/em><\/strong><em>:<\/em>\u00a0studies have shown that reducing your screen time before bed can also be beneficial to getting a good night\u2019s sleep. The blue light found in many electronic devices has been shown to greatly suppress melatonin production in the body for up to twice as long as green light (like that found in natural light) \u2013 and has even been seen to shift circadian rhythms by twice as much (for example, 3 hours vs 1.5 hours)2.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How does sleep affect athletic performance?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Good sleep and exercise are inherently linked.&nbsp;Whether you\u2019re an athlete, a weekend warrior, or just an occasional exerciser, you need&nbsp;the right amount of&nbsp;sleep to function and perform at your best. Less than 6 hours&nbsp;of&nbsp;sleep&nbsp;per&nbsp;night can have a profound impact on your sports performance and cognitive function.&nbsp;Studies have shown that sleep deprivation can negatively affect reaction time, accuracy, strength, endurance and impact cognitive function by reducing focus and decreasing alertness3.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, getting plenty of sleep provides your body with&nbsp;the energy, concentration, and physical ability to participate in exercise to the best of your ability. Using a supplement that can aid sleep&nbsp; like Kinetica\u2019s Zinc Mag+, can be a great way to support your overall health and athletic performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, aside from getting a good night\u2019s sleep, there are other ways to get a handy energy boost to support your exercise goals \u2013 like energy gels. Explore our guide to\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kineticasports.com\/blogs\/news\/what-are-energy-gels-and-how-can-they-help-you\">What Are Energy Gels and How Can They Help You?<\/a>\u00a0to learn more about these sports supplements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Helps to Maximise Recovery<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Getting enough rest after a workout or a competitive event is necessary to allow your body to recover and repair.&nbsp;Research suggests that extending sleep time has the potential to improve recovery of (or prevent) exercise-induced muscle injuries by helping to control the local inflammation response and stimulate the IGF-I response (which promotes muscle repair and growth)4.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, according to research,&nbsp;if you consistently get poor sleep, you are 1.7 times&nbsp;more&nbsp;likely to pick up an injury5. During periods of heavy training, sleep becomes even more important&nbsp;\u2013 so, making sure you are getting&nbsp;adequate sleep can lead to an increase in performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As mentioned, Kinetica Sports Zinc Mag+ may support sleep quality but&nbsp;there is also promising evidence to suggest that magnesium can have a positive impact on reducing or mitigating muscle damage during exercise6, helping your muscles recover after intense or strenuous exercise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Plus, whilst more research is required, there are also links between zinc supplementation and athletic performance. Studies suggest that a zinc deficiency could particularly affect athletes and their sport performance7, and that supplementing with zinc can help skeletal muscle regeneration and recovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Supports Immune Function<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As you probably already know, the immune system recognises and protects against elements that are foreign to the body \u2013 so it\u2019s important to support it as much as we can!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nutritional deficiencies can impair immune function,&nbsp;thus&nbsp;the key to maintaining an effective immune system is to avoid deficiencies of the nutrients that play an essential role in immune function. Both zinc and magnesium are known to exert modulatory effects on immune function8.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Kinetica Sports top tip<\/em><\/strong><em>:&nbsp;<\/em>athletes and those who work out regularly require these minerals more than sedentary individuals because of increased loss of fluids such as sweat during exercise.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Studies have also shown that a&nbsp;lack of sleep can lead to an increase in URTI&nbsp;(upper respiratory tract infection) in participants,&nbsp;which is considered to be&nbsp;due to a suppression of the immune system9.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, ensuring your sleep quality and quantity is supported has a wide range of benefits to support your health and improve your athletic performance&nbsp;\u2013&nbsp;and sleep supplements are one potential way to help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>When and how should you take Kinetica Zinc Mag+?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Kinetica Sports\u2019 Zinc Mag+ capsules were created to help provide the best nutrient support prior to sleep. #TeamKineticaSports recommends taking 3 capsules 30 to 60 minutes before bed for the best effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Zinc Mag - 90 Capsules - #kinetica-sports#\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0327\/1819\/2773\/files\/kinetica-sports-zinc-magnesium-shot-on-plinth-565719_480x480.png?v=1716300232\"><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Each capsule contains a scientifically designed blend of functional ingredients, vitamins and minerals to support&nbsp;healthy sleep and exercise recovery,&nbsp;including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Zinc, magnesium, Vit B6, C and E.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Added ornithine alpha ketoglutarate and n-acetyl l-cysteine.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Selenium, copper and manganese.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want to bring your sleep hygiene to the next level, check out Kinetica Zinc Mag+ today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Kinetica Sports top tip<\/em><\/strong>: Why not try&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.kineticasports.com\/collections\/whey-protein-powder\">Kinetica Sports Whey Protein<\/a>&nbsp;too?
