A carotenoid from algae

What is astaxanthin?

Astaxanthin is a carotenoid, a fat-soluble pigment like beta-carotene or lutein. It belongs to the xanthophyll subgroup and is responsible for the red colour of salmon, prawns and krill. These animals don’t make astaxanthin themselves; they take it in through algae and small crustaceans.

The richest natural source is the freshwater alga Haematococcus pluvialis. Under stress, astaxanthin turns it deep red. For food supplements the alga is cultivated and harvested, and the astaxanthin is then extracted. ASTAFIT® is an astaxanthin ingredient obtained from this alga.

Information about Astaxanthin Supplement 4 mg – Natural ASTAFIT® Capsules from Algae

About the product

Natural astaxanthin from microalgae

The freshwater alga Haematococcus pluvialis is the richest natural source of astaxanthin. When it comes under stress, for example from intense light, it stores the red pigment. Our ingredient ASTAFIT® is obtained from this alga.

From plankton to salmon

In nature, astaxanthin travels up the food chain. Small crustaceans such as krill eat the algae, and salmon eat the crustaceans. That’s why krill, prawns and wild salmon are pink to red. If you rarely eat them, you take in hardly any astaxanthin.

Daily serving: how to take astaxanthin capsules

Each capsule contains 4 mg astaxanthin, and the daily serving of two capsules 8 mg. As astaxanthin is fat-soluble, the capsules are best taken with a meal. This astaxanthin supplement is intended for adults. A jar of 60 capsules lasts 30 days.

Why we make no health claims

Astaxanthin is widely researched and even more widely praised. However, health claims for it are not authorised in the EU or Switzerland. So we stick to what we can verify: source, ingredient and content.
