We are pleased to announce that our popular Zen Haus ADK is back!

Thank you for your patience and understanding. The pandemic years, growing pains and new Amazon restrictions all made it harder for us to grow this product line. We kept adapting, and we are pleased to now have three products that complement each other: Iodine, ADK and Immune Support.

If you support our vision of quality nutrients and simple supplementation, please consider leaving a product review and spreading the word. That is what helps a small brand like ours the most when competing with large corporate brands. On the education front, there is an enormous amount of information, and misinformation, about nutrition. Thinking of food as the foundation of health, paying attention to how your body feels and taking sensible action is a powerful thing. Join the conversation, share posts and keep learning with us.

Look out for future posts about our brand philosophy, vision and story. We are also starting to offer affiliate opportunities, because a network of conscious, like-minded people sharing our products and ideas is one of the best ways for a small brand to be heard.

What's new?

ADK is not a multivitamin. It is a focused complex: vitamins A, D3 and K2 work together to support calcium use for strong bones and teeth, and vitamin E, alpha lipoic acid and CoQ10 add antioxidant support. With vitamin D3 at the heart of the formula, ADK also supports normal immune function. Many adults, especially as we get older, look for this kind of daily support.

We have refined the balance of nutrients, replaced some ingredients and added others. As a result, the capsules are slightly larger. Here is what is in each capsule now (one capsule is one serving, 100 capsules per bottle).

Unchanged

Vitamin A (as retinyl palmitate). 300 mcg RAE per capsule (about 1,000 IU). Vitamin A supports normal vision, skin and immune function.

Vitamin E (d-alpha and mixed tocopherols). 5 mg per capsule. Vitamin E is a fat-soluble antioxidant that helps protect cell membranes.

Rebalanced

Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol). 125 mcg (5,000 IU) per capsule. Vitamin D3 supports calcium absorption, bone health and normal immune function.

Vitamin K2 (MK-7, as all-trans K2VITAL). 50 mcg per capsule. K2 helps direct calcium to bones and teeth.

Alpha lipoic acid. 5 mg per capsule. Alpha lipoic acid is part of the antioxidant network. It helps recycle other antioxidants, including vitamins C and E, glutathione and CoQ10.

New ingredients

CoQ10. 3 mg per capsule. CoQ10 helps regenerate vitamin E and plays a role in cellular energy production. Together with vitamins D and K2, it supports healthy blood vessels and heart function.

Manganese (as manganese glycinate). 0.5 mg (500 mcg) per capsule. Manganese supports bone health and normal collagen formation, contributes to antioxidant defenses, and helps the body use vitamins C and E.

Boron (as boron glycinate). 100 mcg per capsule. Boron supports bone and joint health and helps the body absorb and use magnesium.

L-leucine. 75 mg per capsule. Leucine is an essential amino acid that supports muscle maintenance.

Removed

Astaxanthin. We think astaxanthin is a great complement, but we chose to make room for ingredients that fit the complex better while keeping the price down.

Vitamin C. We still recommend getting plenty of vitamin C. Since it is affordable and widely available, we did not see the value in adding it here. The alpha lipoic acid in ADK helps recycle vitamin C, both directly and by helping recycle glutathione, which in turn regenerates vitamin C.

How to take ADK

Take 1 capsule daily with food, ideally a meal that includes healthy fats or oils, since vitamins A, D, E and K2 are fat-soluble. Each bottle has 100 capsules. ADK is $30 at our Shopify store and on Amazon.

ADK is soy-free and non-GMO. If you are pregnant or nursing, under 18, have a medical condition or a blood-clotting disorder, or take blood-thinning medication, talk with your healthcare provider before using this product.

We are very excited about the new ADK formula. Thank you for your continued support and feedback. The world needs more leadership on the ground level. Let's be the change we want to see.
