Organic Astaxanthin Extract90 Capsules

5.0 / 51 review

Many antioxidants, even the most potent ones, cannot penetrate the blood-brain and blood-retinal barriers to reach the brain, nervous system, and eyes. Astaxanthin is different. Besides its rare ability to cross these protective barriers, it also helps protect the brain, eye tissue, and nearly every cell from free radicals (up to 19 at once) and other substances that can cause oxidative damage and cellular ageing. Astaxanthin has up to 6,000 times the quenching ability of other known antioxidants, offering remarkable potential for many functions, including cellular energy production, cognitive and psychomotor functions, eye and skin health, immune functions, normal inflammatory response, and cardiovascular health.*

Our organic astaxanthin (12 mg) differs from other products in three key ways:

  • We exclusively use organic astaxanthin extract from Haematococcus pluvialis microalgae, the preferred source.

  • Our astaxanthin is cultivated in pristine glass tubes, not in contaminated open ponds like other products, and is untouched by chemical solvents, preservatives, plasticisers, and residues.

  • Contains 12 mg of astaxanthin per serving for those who want the higher amounts used in many studies without taking multiple capsules.

  • Gain the antioxidant power you seek with organic astaxanthin (12 mg) and order your supply today.

Organic Astaxanthin - Dr. Mercola

Carotenoids are well-documented and researched today. Here are the most common references in studies focusing on the effects of astaxanthin. It is mostly a monthly daily application of 5 - 12 mg of astaxanthin.

Why consider supplementing with Organic Astaxanthin

  • Stress - emphasizes the use of marine carotenoids (including astaxanthin from marine algae). Describes the effect on eliminating singlet oxygen and reducing the oxidative effect of stress. (source: https://www.mdpi.com/ Marine Drugs).

  • Eyes - protective effect on the retina, eye accommodation in older people, support for eye fatigue (a Japanese study showed up to 54% improvement with monthly astaxanthin administration) (Sawaki et al., 2002; Nagaki et al., 2002; Nakamura et al., 2004).

  • Skin - promising data in supporting skin homeostasis (renewal and support in skin diseases), also demonstrated in mice the influence on the speed of wound healing with astaxanthin application (source: Dove Medical Press).

Detail

Why does Astaxanthin work so well?

The antioxidant effects of astaxanthin are remarkable. Its efficacy is due to the shape and length of the molecule, which is soluble in both water and fats. The molecule penetrates well into the cell walls of the eyes, also the blood-brain barrier of the brain.

Astaxanthin also does not turn into a pro-oxidant. It is worth mentioning that astaxanthin can process several (up to 19) free radicals at once (most other antioxidants only 1). These properties distinguish astaxanthin from most antioxidants.

Thanks to its unique molecular structure, astaxanthin is even stronger and more versatile in its action.

8 reasons why Astaxanthin is the king of antioxidants

  • It has many more electrons to donate to neutralize free radicals than most other antioxidants, allowing it to remain active longer.

  • It can eliminate more free radicals at once.

  • Its solubility in both water and fats gives it versatility, including mitochondrial protection.

  • It does not turn into a pro-oxidant like glutathione.

  • It can absorb UVB rays.

  • It generally supports a healthy inflammatory response in your body, just like adequate intake of omega-3 fatty acids (one study showed a reduction in CRP).

  • Because it is fat-soluble and larger and longer than other carotenoids, it can become part of the cell membrane and span its entire thickness to help stabilize and protect both the inner and outer cell membranes from oxidative damage.

  • It also protects your mitochondria from free radical damage.

  • Astaxanthin has been shown to be more effective than other antioxidant nutrients in suppressing singlet oxygen:

6,000 times greater than vitamin C
800 times stronger than CoQ10
500 times stronger than vitamin E
10 times stronger than beta-carotene
4 times more effective than lutein

  • Beru extrakt už od loňského jara a musím říct, že mi moc pomohl. Moje alergie na slunce a pobyt na něm (fototyp 1) se díky němu o hodně zlepšil.
