6,000x stronger than Vitamin C. Clinically dosed 12mg natural astaxanthin from Haematococcus pluvialis microalgae.
120 softgels per pouch.
I've been golfing for 40 years. After 6 weeks, I played 36 holes on Saturday and woke up Sunday ready to go again. This gave me my game back.
Within a month, I was on the floor building Legos with my grandkids. This is the only supplement that's ever actually worked for me.
I'm recovering overnight again, hitting PRs I haven't touched in 5 years, and I'm off all the NSAIDs that were destroying my stomach.
Natural astaxanthin is one of nature's most powerful antioxidants.

Unlike synthetic versions derived from petrochemicals, our natural astaxanthin from Haematococcus microalgae is 20-50x more bioavailable.
Find answers to common questions about astaxanthin.
Unlike many brands that use cheap synthetic astaxanthin derived from petrochemicals, we use natural astaxanthin from Haematococcus pluvialis microalgae - the same source wild salmon get theirs from. We deliver 12mg in sunflower seed oil for maximum absorption, and verify quality through rigorous third-party testing. No synthetic chemicals, no fillers, no fluff - just pharmaceutical-grade cellular protection.
Yes. Astaxanthin has been shown in clinical studies to significantly reduce joint pain, morning stiffness, and inflammatory markers. A randomized controlled trial in rheumatoid arthritis patients showed significant improvements in disease activity scores after 8 weeks. Many people experience relief similar to NSAIDs - without the harsh side effects on your stomach, liver, and kidneys.
Synthetic astaxanthin has a different molecular structure (wrong stereochemistry) that doesn't integrate into cell membranes properly. Research shows natural astaxanthin is 20-50x more bioavailable than synthetic versions. It's like trying to fit the wrong key in a lock - synthetic astaxanthin just doesn't work the same way in your body.
Most users report noticeable improvements within 2 to 4 weeks of daily use - especially in joint pain, morning stiffness, and recovery after physical activity. Some feel relief sooner (eyes feeling less fatigued, subtle energy improvements), but the deepest cellular benefits build over 8-12 weeks. Consistent use is essential.
Take 1 softgel daily (12mg). For best results, take with food - ideally something with healthy fat like eggs, avocado, nuts, or fish - to improve absorption since astaxanthin is fat-soluble. Our softgels already contain sunflower seed oil, but pairing with a meal increases bioavailability by 2-4x.
Astaxanthin is safe for most people with an excellent safety record. A few may experience a harmless orange tint to stool at high doses (your body's natural response to the pink-red carotenoid). Unlike NSAIDs which damage your stomach and liver, astaxanthin is gentle and protective. Always follow directions.
If you're on blood thinners (warfarin, Plavix), diabetes medication, or have health concerns, speak with your doctor before using astaxanthin. It may have mild blood-thinning effects and could theoretically enhance certain medications. Professional guidance is always recommended.
