Astaxanthin
2 mg, 120 tablets
Item Catalog Number: 26521

Astaxanthin, a member of the carotenoid family, is a powerful antioxidant. In vitro research demonstrates that astaxanthin is ten times stronger in scavenging free radicals than other carotenoids such as lutein, zeaxanthin and beta-carotene, and one-hundred times stronger than alpha-tocopherol.

Astaxanthin has also been shown to prevent low-density lipoprotein oxidation in human blood to enhance the immune system in animal studies.*
