2132 Astaxanthan 4mg - 07/24

Astaxanthin is one of nature’s most powerful antioxidants. It neutralizes free radicals much more effectively than common antioxidant nutrients such as Vitamins C, E, and beta carotene, and significantly outperforms many botanically-sourced antioxidants such as resveratrol, curcumin, quercetin, alpha lipoic acid, and other carotenoids (such as lutein, lycopene, and fucoxanthin). It’s a pink-colored carotenoid abundantly present in pink salmon, lobsters, crabs, shrimp, krill, micro algae, and many other marine animals, where its antioxidant properties help the organisms battle the daily effects of normal metabolism and environmental stresses. When taken as a supplement, Astaxanthin helps to protect virtually every part of the human body from oxidative damage.†

Benefits

6,000 times more effective at neutralizing singlet oxygen free radical than Vitamin C.†

Helps inhibit the formation of lipid peroxide free radicals. Lipid peroxides damage arterial walls, and play a role in the onset and progression of cardiovascular disease.†

Helps to isolate lipid peroxides within the phospholipid membrane of cells, which preserves their structure and function.†

Supports the immune system by significantly improving the phagocytic and fungicidal capacities of certain immune cells (neutrophils). This enables them to combat bacterial and fungal infections more effectively, and to clear the blood of debris such as foreign particles and dead and dying cells.†

Helps prevent oxidative damage to the eyes, central nervous system, skin, cardiovascular system, and many other tissues.†

Supports skin health by helping to prevent UV oxidative damage to skin cells.†

Helps prevent oxidative damage to osteoblasts, cells that build the mineral matrix structure of bones.†

Helps increase cholesterol and lipid metabolism in liver cells.†

Helps reduce Early Brain Injury (EBI) during an aneurysmal hemorrhage (aneurysm) by reducing oxidative stress, edema and brain cell death.†

A patent (#5,527,533) has been granted for the use of astaxanthin in mitigating certain degenerative diseases of the eyes and central nervous system, such as macular degeneration and ischemia.†
