Nature's most powerful antioxidant—6,000x stronger than Vitamin C at cellular protection
Each softgel delivers AstaPure® Astaxanthin 4mg in cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil for enhanced absorption. This unique carotenoid from Haematococcus microalgae spans both lipid and aqueous cell compartments simultaneously, protecting membranes, mitochondria, and proteins from oxidative damage in ways conventional antioxidants cannot.
Why This Formula
✔ 4mg AstaPure® per softgel—the clinically studied dose for measurable antioxidant benefit
✔ Bioavailability optimized via extra virgin olive oil suspension for enhanced absorption
✔ Never becomes pro-oxidant in the body (unique among powerful antioxidants)
✔ Crosses blood-brain and blood-retinal barriers—reaching eyes and brain directly
✔ Produced via closed-loop aquaculture and supercritical CO2 extraction—no chemical residuesWho It's For
Ideal for athletes and those seeking recovery support from exercise-induced oxidative stress. Anyone concerned with skin health, longevity, eye protection, or brain function will benefit. Particularly valuable for those exposed to environmental stress or UV damage.

Cautions
If on medication or under medical supervision always consult your GP before taking health supplements.
If pregnant or nursing consult your GP before taking health supplements.
You should not take supplements as a substitute for a varied balanced diet.Anti-oxidants are important as they prevent harmful molecules (called free radicals) from causing damage to our brain function, DNA and cells. The free radical molecules can cause medical conditions including heart disease, dementia, inflammation and even cancer. They also can take their toll on the physical state by causing poor vision, signs of premature aging (such as wrinkles) and extreme fatigue. Astaxanthin can also help support a healthy immune system as well as cardiovascular and neurological systems.
There are currently over 1000 studies of astaxanthin, supporting the wide-ranging health support benefits including:
- Promotes healthy inflammatory response to support your body's natural defences against inflammation.
- Supports against fatigue, including supporting your body's natural recovery from exercise.
- Supports eye health - there are well-designed positive human clinical trials supporting eye health with Astaxanthin being shown to have a unique ability to cross through a barrier and reach your retina.
- Body Cell Cleansing - unique molecular lipophilic and hydrophilic properties allow Astaxanthin to span the entire cell, putting it in a league of its own.
- Skin health support - clear and consistent studies show excellent results for Astaxanthin helping with skin moisture levels, smoothness, elasticity, fine wrinkles, and spots or freckles. Also supports skin health during normal Sun exposure.
- Astaxanthin crosses the blood-brain barrier AND the blood-retinal barrier (beta carotene and lycopene do not), which brings antioxidant and anti-inflammatory protection to your eyes, brain and central nervous system.
