Astaxanthin is known as nature's most powerful antioxidant; backed by over 200 scientific studies. This new formula derived directly from algae and phytoplankton is ideal for athletes, individuals with certain health conditions, or those who absorb carotenoids poorly.
As nature's most powerful antioxidant, BioAstin 12mg Hawaiian Astaxanthin is a supplement that has been documented to show a wide range of benefits in human clinical studies on several serious health concerns. Due to its molecular structure, Astaxanthin is one of the few antioxidants that can move throughout the entire body and provide protection to all of our cells.
Astaxanthin is a red carotenoid and a potent antioxidant that is over 500 times more powerful than Vitamin E and 10 – 20 times stronger than other carotenoids such as zeaxanthin, lutein, lycopene and beta-carotene. While found in both plants and animals, it is most prevalent in the marine environment and in algae and phytoplankton. This Hawaiian Astaxanthin supplement contains Astaxanthin that is sourced directly from micro-algae.
