Zen Haus uses the best ingredients in terms of bio-availability and synergistic benefits. We have researched which nutrients are most needed and which forms those nutrients should be in for the most uptake in the body. Virtually all of the iodine we get from sea foods and sea vegetables are in the iodide form. This combination of minerals supports the thyroid and triggers detox processes. Each tablet contains 12.5 mg of elemental iodine. Iodine is an essential nutrient that is vital for proper thyroid, adrenal, breast, ovary and prostate function, which in turn is essential for health. It can lead to higher IQs especially for newborns of pregnant and lactating women taking iodine. Iodine deficiency can cause hypothyroidism which can manifest as low energy levels, dry skin, tingling and numbness in extremities, forgetfulness, mood swings, depression, and long and heavy periods in women. Selenium is a trace mineral that works in conjunction with iodine and is crucial for helping the body recycle iodine. It maximizes the iodine active thyroid hormone (T3) conversion. Selenium, which we provide in the Selenomethionine form, can help the body produce glutathione which prevents damage to important cellular components, builds the immune system and supports the heart. It can also be very helpful in removing mercury and other heavy metals from the body. Chromium, as Chromium Picolinate, is essential for the storage of fats, proteins and carbohydrates. L-Theanine promotes relaxation without drowsiness. L-Theanine could help decrease the incidence of upper respiratory tract infections. It seems to have neuro-protective and cognitive-enhancing abilities while protecting against cognitive decline. L-Theanine will help smooth out the stimulatory effects of iodine.
