Organic Astaxanthin Powder 5%
Astaxanthin is a naturally occurring carotenoid antioxidant produced by the freshwater microalga Haematococcus pluvialis. It is recognised for its high antioxidant capacity, helping protect cells from oxidative stress – a process that can affect tissues throughout the body. Our organic astaxanthin powder 5% is cultivated under certified organic conditions without pesticides, ensuring purity and sustainability.
Unlike synthetic astaxanthin (not approved for human consumption), our product contains only natural astaxanthin together with other harmless plant compounds from the algae biomass.
Key Support Areas
1. Antioxidant Defence – Astaxanthin has one of the highest known antioxidant capacities among carotenoids, helping to neutralise free radicals and reduce oxidative stress. This supports the protection of cell structures such as lipids, proteins, and DNA.
2. Eye Health – Because astaxanthin can cross the blood-retinal barrier, it accumulates in the retina where it helps protect eye cells from oxidative damage. This may support visual performance and comfort.
3. Skin Health – Astaxanthin’s antioxidant activity may help protect skin cells from oxidative stress caused by environmental factors such as UV exposure. Regular intake has been studied for its potential to support skin elasticity, smoothness, and overall appearance.
4. Balanced Inflammatory Response – Laboratory studies suggest that astaxanthin can help maintain inflammation within a healthy physiological range, supporting overall comfort and recovery.
5. Cardiovascular Function – Organic astaxanthin’s antioxidant properties may help maintain healthy blood vessel function and contribute to balanced lipid profiles as part of a healthy lifestyle.
6. Muscle Endurance & Recovery – Some studies have investigated the role of astaxanthin in supporting endurance and recovery following physical exertion, potentially helping to sustain performance over time.
7. Cognitive Support – Because astaxanthin can cross the blood-brain barrier, it may help protect nerve cells from oxidative stress, supporting brain health and normal cognitive performance during ageing.
8. Joint Comfort – The combined antioxidant and inflammation-modulating properties of astaxanthin may help maintain joint mobility and comfort.
9. Immune System Support – Research suggests astaxanthin may help support normal immune cell function, contributing to balanced immune defences.
