Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant carotenoid.
Astaxanthin is the red pigment responsible for the colour of shellfish, salmon, and pink flamingos. It is an exceptionally powerful antioxidant carotenoid, now available to buy in supplement form at Supersmart.
Astaxanthin has immuno-modulating, anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, cardio-protective, and photo-protective properties.
Recent studies show that astaxanthin is much more effective than beta-carotene against the singlet oxygen free radical. It also fights several other harmful free radicals.
It is particularly effective at protecting fragile cell and mitochondrial membranes ("Astaxanthin is much more effective than vitamin E, beta-carotene, and lutein in inhibiting peroxidation process by harmful free radicals," Miki W. et al, 1991.).
A number of in vitro and in vivo studies – animal and human – have demonstrated the antioxidant efficacy of astaxanthin and its benefits in the prevention and/or treatment of oxidative stress-related neurodegenerative diseases and cardiovascular diseases.
It also protects the skin and eyes from UV-induced damage.
