Description A full 4mg dose of natural astaxanthin, suspended in palm-free MCT oil (which increases the Astaxantin bioavaility), with added vitamin E to support antioxidant activity.It's one of nature’s most powerful antioxidants - but let’s be honest, not everyone loves the taste. So we did the sensible thing. These Astaxanthin Soft Capsules are a clean, convenient way to keep astaxanthin in your daily routine. No bitterness. No aftertaste. Astaxanthin is the red pigment found in salmon, shrimp and flamingos, and it’s been studied extensively for its role in cellular protection, skin health, eye health, cardiovascular support and exercise recovery. Unlike many antioxidants, astaxanthin is uniquely structured to work across both fat- and water-based environments in the body. Paired with vitamin E - which contributes to the protection of cells from oxidative stress - this formula is designed to support your body’s natural defence systems, without the need for powders, mixing, or flavour compromises. If you’ve been missing the benefits of astaxanthin since we removed it from Electrolytes+, this is the simplest way to bring it back. 60 Capsules Benefits Astaxanthin is often referred to as “The King of the Carotenoids” - and for good reason. It’s one of the most researched carotenoids, with over a thousand clinical and pre-clinical studies exploring its potential roles across multiple body systems. Unlike some antioxidants, astaxanthin does not become pro-oxidant, even at higher levels of oxidative stress. Its unique molecular structure allows it to span cell membranes, helping protect cells from oxidative damage both inside and out. Vitamin E complements astaxanthin by contributing to the protection of cells from oxidative stress, helping to reinforce the body’s antioxidant defences. Together, they offer broad-spectrum antioxidant support, particularly suited to active lifestyles, sun exposure, and general cellular resilience. And because it’s delivered in a soft capsule with MCT oil, absorption is simple - no powders, no taste, no effort. The Science Astaxanthin is structurally unique among carotenoids. It is both lipophilic and hydrophilic, allowing it to integrate across the phospholipid bilayer of cell membranes, forming a stabilising antioxidant “bridge” that helps protect mitochondria, ribosomes and DNA from oxidative stress. Research has shown that natural astaxanthin: Can cross the blood-brain barrier and blood-retinal barrier Absorbs UV light, supporting skin exposed to sunlight Supports a healthy inflammatory response via modulation of COX-2 pathways and inflammatory markers Has been studied extensively in relation to eye health, cardiovascular function, exercise recovery and skin ageing Comparative antioxidant activity (in vitro data): 800x stronger than CoQ10 65x stronger than vitamin C 550x stronger than vitamin E 54x stronger than beta carotene 21x stronger than synthetic astaxanthin (These comparisons reflect antioxidant capacity in laboratory settings, not direct effects in the human body.)
