Natural Astaxanthin Powder 3% – Food Grade – High Purity Antioxidant Supplement

This is a high-quality, food grade natural astaxanthin powder derived from Haematococcus pluvialis microalgae. Astaxanthin is a powerful carotenoid antioxidant—often called the “king of antioxidants”—known for its benefits for skin health, eye health, joint support, and overall wellness. This 3% concentration powder is ideal for DIY capsule making, mixing into smoothies, or direct consumption.

Health Benefits

Astaxanthin is one of the most potent naturally occurring antioxidants, with research suggesting it may offer a wide range of health benefits:

Skin Health: Clinical studies show that astaxanthin (4-12 mg/day for 8-16 weeks) can reduce UV-induced skin damage, improve skin moisture, support elasticity, and help maintain skin barrier function. It works by suppressing UV-induced inflammatory responses and collagen degradation.

Eye Health: Astaxanthin supports visual health by reducing oxidative stress in ocular tissues. Studies demonstrate improvements in visual acuity, accommodative function, and eye fatigue relief, particularly in individuals with prolonged screen exposure.

Cardiovascular Support: Research indicates astaxanthin can improve heart function by supporting healthy lipid profiles, enhancing blood flow, and reducing oxidative stress markers. A clinical trial in heart failure patients showed significant improvements in antioxidant status and clinical symptoms.

Joint, Muscle, and Exercise Performance: Studies show astaxanthin may enhance endurance, improve muscle strength, and reduce exercise-induced muscle damage. Supplementation has been shown to reduce markers of muscle damage such as creatine kinase (CK) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) after exercise.

Neuroprotection: Astaxanthin can cross the blood-brain barrier, offering potential neuroprotective properties through its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory mechanisms.

Immune Support: Astaxanthin modulates immune function by regulating inflammatory pathways and reducing pro-inflammatory cytokine production.

Reproductive Health: Emerging research suggests astaxanthin may improve ovarian response and assisted reproductive outcomes in women with diminished ovarian reserve by alleviating oxidative stress and inflammation.

Metabolic Health: Astaxanthin supports metabolic function by enhancing lipid utilization, promoting mitochondrial biogenesis, and improving insulin sensitivity.

Suggested Dosage

For a 12 mg daily dose of pure astaxanthin, simply take 400 mg of this 3% powder daily (which is just under half a gram). For a general wellness dose of 4-6 mg, take approximately 133-200 mg. Best taken with a meal containing healthy fats for optimal absorption.
