Free radicals are unstable, short-lived and highly reactive molecules that arise from either normal metabolic processes in the body or from exposure to environmental factors such as UV light, smoking, air pollution and industrial chemicals.
Free radicals are needed in the body for the immune system and the inflammation process to function, but too high levels of free radicals can lead to damage to cell membranes, proteins, fats and DNA. Dietary antioxidants can help neutralize free radicals.
Recommended daily intake: 1-2 capsules with a meal.
Astaxanthin is fat-soluble and should be taken with a meal for best absorption. Astaxanthin needs to be metabolized in the gut and absorbed together with fat-soluble vitamins. It is therefore important that the meal contains fat.
Astaxin® Vegan is an innovative vegan alternative to Astaxin® Original. The capsules consist of carrageenan (from red algae) and modified starch.
Perfect for those who want to eat plant-based or are vegan.

We also perform long-term stability tests on our finished formulations to ensure that the level of astaxanthin in the finished product is always consistent with the amount stated on the label. The high quality means that our food supplements contain the right amount of astaxanthin at least to best before the expiry date. You can trust that Astaxin® Original always contains 4 mg of astaxanthin per capsule.

AstaReals® Astaxanthin is backed by more than 35 years of research and over 70 human clinical studies in many different health areas. There are also toxicity studies and absorption studies that demonstrate that astaxanthin is safe and effective to use. Astaxanthin's functional and health-promoting properties have attracted the interest of many researchers and the subject has been studied in various types of studies since the early 1990s.
Haematococcus pluvialis is not a red alga despite the bright red color. It is a green algae that produces the red carotenoid astaxanthin under stressed conditions.
The individual microalgae cannot be seen with the naked eye, only under a microscope.
Astaxanthin is a red pigment that belongs to the carotenoid family. The substance is formed, among other things, by the microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis . In Swedish, the algae is called blood rain algae.
Astaxanthin is not a vitamin and belongs to the carotenoid family, which includes, for example, beta-carotene and zeaxanthin. This means that astaxanthin is not essential and we do not have to get it through the diet to survive. However, astaxanthin has a high antioxidant activity and can provide health benefits if included in the diet.
There are many microorganisms that produce astaxanthin, but the green freshwater alga Haematococcus pluvialis (Latin) is the main source of astaxanthin in nature. The microalgae are mostly found in small pools of water on rocks in the archipelago. Under severe conditions of drought or lack of nutrients, the green algae form spores and begin to produce the red pigment astaxanthin. The astaxanthin is a strong antioxidant that protects the cells' fats and membranes from damage and is crucial for cell survival. When conditions are more favorable again, the spores can be brought to life and the cells go back to the green phase where they can grow and thrive.
AstaReal AB grows the microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis indoors under controlled conditions to maximize harvest and avoid contamination. The algae are grown under favorable conditions and in the last step the algae are stressed with reduced nutrient availability and lots of light so that they start producing astaxanthin. The algae are harvested when the level of biomass and astaxanthin is optimal and then dried into an algae meal with a high content of astaxanthin. The algae meal can then be further processed into a number of innovative formulations that can be used in dietary supplements and skin care products.
