Astaxanthin is a naturally occurring carotenoid pigment which lends its vibrant red-orange colour to foods like krill, algae, salmon and lobster. Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant that neutralises free radicals, helping protect our bodies against oxidative stress.
Astaxanthin has been shown to promote healthy skin by assisting collagen formation and protecting skin elastin from breakdown, thus Astaxanthin may improve skin firmness and elasticity and also maintain the skin’s integrity.

Premium Ingredients
Name: Astaxanthin
Description: Astaxanthin is one of nature's most powerful antioxidants. It protects our bodies against oxidative stress and helps minimise the potential damage of free radicals in the body. The structure of Astaxanthin is both water and fat soluble which allows it to fit precisely into the span of the cell membrane, making it's effects superior to other antioxidants. Oxidative stress occurs when there is an imbalance between the production of free radicals and the ability of the body to neutralise their effects. Because of this, Hawaiian Astaxanthin confers a wide range of health benefits to many body systems.
