Astaxanthin Why you should be taking this powerful antioxidant

,






We like Astaxanthin, a member of the carotenoid family, a dark red
pigment and the main carotenoid found in algae and aquatic animals. It
is responsible for the red/pink coloration of crustaceans, shellfish,
and the flesh of salmonoids.



Astaxanthin however, is more than just a
red pigment, it is primarily an extremely powerful antioxidant. It has
the unique capacity to quench free radicals and reactive species of
oxygen and to inhibit lipid peroxidation.


 Studies have shown astaxanthin
to be over 500 times stronger than vitamin E and much more potent than
other carotenoids such as lutein, lycopene and ?-carotene.
Astaxanthin
was found to have beneficial effects in many health conditions related
to the Central Nervous System (CNS) disorders, skin health, joint
health, muscle endurance, as well as to the cardiovascular, immune, eye
and other systems.




 All the best from Croatia, CCRES ALGAE TEAM.?
