Astaxanthin - The Aquatic Carotenoid for Cellular Health and Inner Beauty*

Eating Beyond The Rainbow

Nutritionists use the food color wheel to encourage consumption of a diverse set of plant-based nutrients, including carotenoids. We get 90% of all carotenoids in our diet from fruits and vegetables, but astaxanthin is missing from this phytonutrient rainbow because it is primarily found in red-colored seafoods.

The best natural source of astaxanthin in our diet is wild salmon, and you would have to consume a fillet of wild sockeye salmon daily to get the clinically-validated benefits of this powerful free radical scavenger.*

For those of us that don't have salmon on the menu daily, or who are adhering to a vegetarian/vegan diet, AstaReal^® harvests natural astaxanthin from a plant-based green microalga called Haematococcus pluvialis.

The Power Of AstaReal^® Astaxanthin

AstaReal^® Astaxanthin is a carotenoid that loves cell membranes. It preferentially deposits in membranes that make up the powerhouses of the cell, the mitochondria. This means that natural astaxanthin is strategically poised in prime cellular real estate, where it is able to quench free radical byproducts made by mitochondria.* The harder mitochondria work to meet our energy demands, the more free radical byproducts they produce.

AstaReal^® Astaxanthin is one of nature's most effective free radical scavengers, having 6000x the singlet oxygen quenching capacity of vitamin C.* AstaReal^® Astaxanthin is the most studied brand of natural astaxanthin from algae and is backed by 70 human clinical studies demonstrating free radical neutralizing activity, benefits for immune function, combating mental and physical fatigue, promoting eye health, and beauty from within.* At the heart of its industrious nature, is natural astaxanthin's ability to take action in the mitochondria that power and nourish all the cells in our body.*
