Description:

Antioxidant for the skin, macula, joints, immune system and
cardiovascular function*

*Derived from Haematococcus pluvialis microalgae cultivated under pristine
conditions, esterified astaxanthin is a stable, fat-soluble antioxidant from the
carotenoid family. Astaxanthin protects the phospholipid membranes of cells
from oxidative damage. In a recent U.S. study, it demonstrated the ability to
cross the blood brain barrier and protect the retina in animals, suggesting
its potential for supporting the brain and nervous system from free radical
damage. Initial trials with astaxanthin suggest that it may support the skin€™s
natural antioxidant defenses against free radicals induced by sun exposure. In
a human clinical evaluation, supplementation with astaxanthin for two weeks
provided enhanced antioxidant protection for the skin. As one double-blind,
placebo-controlled trial suggests, astaxanthin may also provide statistically
significant joint comfort in human volunteers. The results of another clinical
trial suggest that astaxanthin supported knee comfort and joint function after
strenuous leg exercises. Subjects in a third study using astaxanthin reported
enhanced wrist nerve comfort. Additional studies suggest astaxanthin€™s
immune, cellular and cardiovascular support potential.*

Astaxanthin provides superior antioxidant power, supporting the
natural antioxidant defenses of the skin as well as macular, immune,
cellular, joint and heart health.
