Product Information
This amazing carotenoid is closely related to zeaxanthin and lutein, nutrients known for supporting eye health. Astaxanthin is also one of nature’s most potent antioxidants, which helps support the body’s cells/collagen from free radical damage/oxidative stress, linked to the ageing process. Each capsule delivers 4mg of natural, active astaxanthin; a level comparable with published studies.
Synthetic versus natural form
We use a raw material derived from the freshwater green algae, Haematococcus pluvialis, a natural rather than synthetic form.
The algae are cultivated in a climate-controlled environment, in the Arava desert. The 3-month cultivation process, mimics astaxanthin accumulation in nature and produces an exceptionally pure and high-quality microalgae, compared to the astaxanthin grown in outdoor ponds.
The supercritical CO2 extraction technology avoids excess heat and is more environmentally friendly being solar panel driven. The result- a solvent-free product.
Buyer Beware!
Brands described as Astaxanthin 12mg may appear more potent however this is often per serving not per capsule. Or, the active astaxanthin level is only 5%, which equates to just 0.6 mg astaxanthin per capsule!

"A useful addition"

A good initiative to include one or the strongest antioxidants although the strength at 4mg is possibly on the low end of the scale. 7mg would have been more useful

"not really knowable how good this is"

I started to take this as I have some hair loss, and I have been reading that astaxanthin can reduce levels of DHT in the follicles. I started on 4mg, but am now taking 2 tablets a day to make 8mg, as 4mg is a bit low. I dont think I can know how effective it is for hair loss, as even if my lost hair doesn''t grow back, this product may be slowing down further hair loss. however even if it is doing nothing for my hair, it will be benefitting me in other ways, as it is an anti oxidant.
have given it an average of 3 stars, as I dont know how much it is doing for me.

This product is part of my protocol for clearing psoriasis which had flared up. It saves having to eat so much salmon that feed on the same algae. One supplement that can actually be seen working, and it is certainly helping to clear the psoriasis quite quickly.
