Description

Astaxanthin is one of nature’s strongest antioxidants and has been used to support many body systems such as the eyes, brain, nervous system, skin, muscles, and joints. Astaxanthin is in a class of its own when it comes to antioxidant coverage because it filters into every cell of the body. Astaxanthin is also used to enhance physical endurance and skin health, including protection from sun exposure. 

Unlike other antioxidants—such as beta carotene, zeaxanthin, vitamin E, C, D and selenium—Astaxanthin never becomes pro-oxidant in the body.

Astaxanthin is found in red algae and works its way up the food chain in marine life where it is seen in crustaceans, salmon, and even flamingos. Our Astaxanthin is red algae-derived by CO2 and cultivated in the USA. 

Key Health Benefits

• Studies show Astaxanthin's excellent results for helping with skin moisture levels, smoothness, elasticity, fine wrinkles, and spots or freckles.

• Indicated for recovery of muscles, better endurance, enhanced strength, and improved energy levels.

• Clinical trials have shown that Astaxanthin may help retinopathy, macular degeneration, eye strain and fatigue, and seeing in fine detail.

• A 2007 study analyzed several popular antioxidants, and found Astaxanthin was 6,000 times stronger than vitamin C, 800 times stronger than CoQ10, 550 times stronger than green tea catechins, and 75 times stronger than alpha lipoic acid!

• Astaxanthin may protect the lipid membranes of our cells from the formation of phospholipid hydroperoxides (PLOOHs). In brain cells, high levels of PLOOHs are linked to cognitive decline due to impaired blood flow and reduced oxygenation. The importance of fat soluble antioxidants like Astaxanthin cannot be overstated.

What makes our Astaxanthin better?

• Manufacturing process- Our small batch processing methods enable us to precisely blend this product at the correct temperatures with the purest equipment and hand bottle in Miron glass- the most protective glass in the world.

• Liquid form- We avoid encapsulation which impacts absorption and introduces unnecessary ingredients to the digestive system. Heat is also applied to the product during the encapsulation process which is oxidizing to the sensitive oils in this blend. Our liquid oil absorbs much better than the thick paste that is found inside capsules.

• USA-Produced Astaxanthin- Our source of Astaxanthin is the purest available. It's grown and extracted in the USA using CO2, no harsh solvents are used. 

• Sea Buckthorn- Sea Buckthorn Fruit Oil is added for its complementary carotenoids which are part of the same antioxidant family of astaxanthin. Sea Buckthorn is also a rich source of Omega 7 fatty acids which are vital to supporting the health mucous membranes and preventing dryness throughout the body. Omega 7 may also support cardiovascular health, blood sugar levels, and healthy skin and hair.

• Orange Oil- The main constituent of orange oil is D-limonene which has a multitude of documented health benefits but also helps the body assimilate astaxanthin. From immunity to inflammation support to cardiovascular health, we found that the orange oil is not just a functional ingredient, but adds a pleasant taste to the formula as well. 

Usage

Take 1-2 droppers directly in mouth for best absorption.
