Laboratory analysis
The premier class of antioxidants: astaxanthin at a glance
What is astaxanthin?
Astaxanthin is a natural substance that belongs to the carotenoid category and, like all substances in this group, has a reddish colour. Carotenoids are secondary plant substances with antioxidant effects. Foods such as carrots, tomatoes, pumpkin, apricots, watermelon and oranges contain these carotenoids. The carotenoid astaxanthin is characterised by its unique ability to cross the blood-brain barrier.
Astaxanthin is extracted from the freshwater algae Haematococcus pluvialis. The red pigment is mainly found in green algae and plankton, but some bacteria, fungi and plant species also produce it. Animals that eat these carriers acquire their reddish colour as a result. Well-known examples of this are flamingos, salmon, crabs, lobsters and other crustaceans. Incidentally, after Haematococcus pluvialis algae, wild salmon have the highest astaxanthin concentration in the world.
Astaxanthin can slow down or prevent the oxidation of other substances. Antioxidants protect the body from so-called free radicals. These are caused by harmful external influences such as cigarette smoke, UV radiation, environmental toxins or the sun. The antioxidant effect of astaxanthin is remarkable. Its effectiveness is due to the shape and length of its molecule and its solubility in water and fats. Unlike many powerful antioxidants (vitamin E, β-carotene, zeaxanthin, etc.), which can become pro-oxidants under certain circumstances, astaxanthin does not turn into a pro-oxidant. Pro-oxidants even increase oxidative stress.
Astaxanthin can scavenge several - up to 19 - free radicals at once. Most other antioxidants can only scavenge 1 free radical. These properties distinguish astaxanthin from most antioxidants.
Astaxanthin: recommended intake, dosage and storage
For optimum absorption, natural astaxanthin is best taken together with fatty foods. It is usually recommended to take astaxanthin before or during a meal. As our astaxanthin is already dissolved in MCT oil, you do not need to make sure you eat a fatty meal when taking it.
We recommend taking 1x 11 drops (0.33 ml, 2 mg astaxanthin) of the astaxanthin product daily to ensure optimum effectiveness.
Doses of astaxanthin up to 0.2 mg/kg body weight are classified as safe by the EFSA (European Food and Safety Authority). A 60 kg person can therefore take up to 12 mg of astaxanthin per day.
Most dosages used in studies are between 2 and 8 mg of astaxanthin per day.
Once opened, the product should be stored in the refrigerator and consumed within about 6 months. You can take the astaxanthin at any time of day and either on an empty stomach or with a meal. This flexibility makes it easy to integrate the product into your daily diet or health routine.
Origin of astaxanthin: Sustainability of our astaxanthin drops
The main source of astaxanthin is the microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis, which can be cultivated in special facilities. Compared to traditional sources such as wild salmon or krill, cultivated algae is a more sustainable option. Algae production requires fewer resources and minimises environmental impact and other negative consequences such as overfishing.
The extraction of astaxanthin from the algae in our product is carried out without the use of chemicals. This ensures that our product is not only sustainable, but also that the algae is free from harmful substances and heavy metals.
Astaxanthin myths debunked: No lies, no cancer risk!
Astaxanthin is unfortunately confronted with unfounded accusations that are labelled "astaxanthin lies". In particular, the claims that astaxanthin could cause cancer have no scientific basis whatsoever. On the contrary, numerous research studies emphasise the many benefits of this natural antioxidant. In particular, there are no proven links whatsoever with regard to the cancer risk that is often brought into play. The safety of astaxanthin as a dietary supplement is supported by extensive scientific research.
Astaxanthin or OPC?
Astaxanthin and OPC are powerful antioxidants that protect against free radicals. Astaxanthin, on the other hand, can cross the blood-brain barrier and provides integral protection of the cell membrane against oxidation, and the combination of both active ingredients can offer synergistic benefits as they cover different areas and provide a broader spectrum of beneficial properties. Astaxanthin and OPC can be taken together or altern ately (OPC one day and astaxanthin the next) as they complement each other
