Astaxanthin 4 mg - 60 capsules

Astaxanthin is a natural pigment (carotenoid) that is synthesized by many bacteria, microalgae and yeast and has powerful antioxidant properties that can be used to maintain skin and heart health, increase endurance, treat joints and restore male fertility. The active ingredient in Mattisson's product - astaxanthin nataxtin™ is completely natural. Its source is the single-celled algae Haematococcus pluvialis. This algae thrives in lakes, rock pools and Arctic marine areas and is not accidentally called "red gold". Astaxanthin is vital for many aquatic animals. Crabs, lobsters, krill, salmon, trout, shrimp feed on it, which carry this pigment higher up the food chain. The ketocarotenoid astaxanthin accumulates in the meat and shells of crustaceans, as well as in the meat of salmon and trout, which gives them their corresponding red color. The natural pigment has some chemical similarities to the carotenes lycopene and beta-carotene, which are also plant pigments. However, it is more closely related to oxygenated xanthophylls, including lutein and zeaxanthin, which may improve eye health.

Beneficial effects of taking Astaxanthin

• Astaxanthin is the richest source of antioxidants and is hundreds of times more effective in this regard than vitamin E. From a biological point of view, antioxidants are mobile molecules that can repair damage caused at the cellular level by aggressive molecules - free radicals;

• It has a positive effect on the functions of the immune system, which helps the body fight infectious diseases and other health disorders more effectively. This effect is due to the pigment's ability to activate leukocytes (T-cells), which attack aggressive viruses and bacteria using antigenic markers;

• It exhibits anti-inflammatory properties, making it very useful in the prevention and treatment of diseases associated with chronic inflammation, including celiac disease, rheumatoid arthritis, heart disease and diabetes;

• Increases overall mitochondrial energy production, which improves all bodily functions. Mitochondria are the microscopic power plants in every cell. They synthesize energy in the form of ATP, and cells use it to carry out all life processes;

• The astaxanthin molecule is small in size and successfully crosses the blood-brain barrier, providing brain protection and reducing the risk of neurodegenerative diseases;

• Can accumulate in the eyes and protect them from UV damage, which is a prevention of many ophthalmic diseases. Improves visual accommodation and reduces the manifestations of eye fatigue, glare and blurring, which helps balance the contrast of vision. May be useful in the treatment of macular degeneration;

• The antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of astaxanthin bring enormous benefits to cardiovascular health. Studies have shown that this carotenoid helps reduce levels of low-density lipoprotein (LDL or "bad" cholesterol), associated with a high risk of developing atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease and heart attacks;

• Improves the body's response to insulin, correcting insulin resistance and reducing the risk of developing type 2 diabetes;

• Provides significant benefits for skin health, both internally and topically, such as protection against age-related changes.Accelerates wound healing and relieves inflammation and cell damage due to exposure to ultraviolet rays;

• Protects the intestinal mucosa, reduces the risk of Helicobacter pylori reproduction and promotes the treatment of stomach ulcers.
