Great for: supporting antioxidant levels and protecting against free radicals
Pure & Essential Astaxanthin Complex is a natural extract from the microalgae Haematococcus Pluvialis (H. Pluvialis) – the same algae responsible for the pink-red pigmentation of wild salmon and crustaceans. Astaxanthin Complex contains the highest available concentration of astaxanthin, and a complex of other beneficial carotenoids including lutein and zeaxanthin, as well as amino acids and fatty acids, which together offer a broad range of health benefits, enhance its bioavailability and increase cell membrane stability.
Of all the carotenoids, astaxanthin is nature’s most potent, with the highest known ORAC value (oxygen radical absorbance capacity) – a measure of its ability to combat oxidative stress. Astaxanthin’s ability to quench free radicals is 6,000 times greater than vitamin C, 800 times that of coenzyme Q10 and 550 times that of vitamin E.
Astaxanthin can anchor itself in all cell membranes, meaning it has the potential to deliver broad-reaching health benefits throughout the body. Studies to date show that astaxanthin’s ability to reduce and terminate oxidative stress, protect against unwanted inflammation and protect cell structure and function, provide health-enhancing properties for the skin, cell cycle, immune health, cardiovascular health, brain function, joints and muscles, energy, gut and liver health.
