Astaxanthin
Powerful antioxidant formula
Derived from Haematococcus pluvialis microalgae cultivated under pristine conditions, esterified astaxanthin is a stable, powerful, fat-soluble antioxidant from the carotenoid family. Research has found that Haematococcus algae produce astaxanthin to shield themselves against ultraviolet-induced free radical damage. Astaxanthin is different from beta-carotene in that it has two additional oxygenated groups on each of its ring structures, enhancing its ability to neutralize free radicals. Astaxanthin has been shown to be several hundred times more potent than vitamin E in neutralizing singlet oxygen molecules and exhibits greater antioxidant activity than both zeaxanthin and lutein. Astaxanthin safeguards the phospholipid membranes of cells from oxidative damage. In a human clinical evaluation, supplementation with astaxanthin for two weeks provided significant antioxidant benefits for the skin.
