Carotenoid from Microalgae- Astaxanthin is an extremely powerful carotenoid from the microalgae haematococcus pluvialis, one of the richest sources of natural astaxanthin. It is reddish in pigment and is what gives crustaceans such as krill, lobster, and shrimp their vibrant pink color. * PowerfulAntioxidant - Astaxanthin has a unique structure which gives it its strong antioxidant (free radical-fighting) capabilities. Because of this structure, astaxanthin is considered to be substantially stronger than all other well-researched antioxidants, including vitamin C, vitamin E, CoQ10, lipoic acid, and beta carotene. Except for consuming salmon or shellfish, astaxanthin cannot be obtained from the diet. * Solvent Free Extraction Process - For optimal supplementation, astaxanthin needs to be carefully extracted and processed into a form which allows for optimal bioavailability and stability. The astaxanthin found in this product is extracted directly from microalgae using a solvent-free technology that ensures maximum control and purity. * Higher Standards.
