Basic Info
Astaxanthin, a carotenoid or ketone with a pinkish color, is fat-soluble, water-insoluble and soluble in organic liquids. It’s widely found in nature, particularly in feathers from aquatic animals like shrimp, crabs and fish. Astaxanthin, a carotenoid derived from non-vitamin A that is not converted to vitamin A by animals’ bodies, is widely present in the biological world.
Astaxanthin, a pigment that is both lipid-soluble and water soluble, can be found in marine organisms like shrimp, crabs and salmon. Astaxanthin cannot be synthesized by the human body. It is nature’s strongest antioxidant. Its antioxidant activity exceeds that of vitamin E by 550 times and beta-carotene by 10 times. This is why it is called the “king” of antioxidants!
Functions and effects of physiology
Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant that can remove NO2, disulfides and sulfides. It can reduce lipid oxidation, and inhibit lipid oxidation by free radicals.
Astaxanthin is also reported to be able to prevent and treat diabetes-related eye diseases, and it has a wide range of applications in the health care industry, including medicine, cosmetics and food additives.

Astaxanthin: Basic functions
1. Antioxidant function
Astaxanthin protects the skin, eyes and cardiovascular system, prevents aging and radiation and helps to fight Alzheimer’s and cancer. Free radicals are a major cause of oxidation, which is what causes the aging process in humans. Astaxanthin directly clears oxygen-free radicals from human cells. It also improves cell regeneration and maintains normal bodily functions.
2. Anti cancer function
Astaxanthin inhibits the carcinogenesis caused by chemicals, the proliferation of epithelial cell exposed to carcinogens, and the immune system. It can also inhibit oral cancers, bladder cancers, colon cancers, breast cancers, and gastric cancers. Astaxanthin also has the ability to weaken aflatoxin’s carcinogenicity and inhibit liver tumor cells induced by aflatoxin.
3. Protection against ultraviolet radiation
The ultraviolet radiation that is emitted by the sun can cause skin cancer and photoaging. Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant that can be used as a photoprotective agent. It helps to clear free radicals, which cause skin aging.
4. Prevention of cardiovascular disease
Astaxanthin, according to research, has a significant impact on increasing HDL in the body and reducing LDL. HDL increased from 49.7mg/dL -3.6mg/dL up to 66.5mg/dL -5.1mg/dL. Astaxanthin is thought to reduce the oxidation apolipoproteins and be useful in preventing coronary heart disease.
5. Immunity enhancement
Astaxanthin has a significant impact on the immune system of animals. It can increase the ability of the spleen to produce antibodies in the presence of antigens. It can also enhance the function T cells and stimulate immunoglobulin production. Astaxanthin is a powerful inducer of cell division, and it plays a key role in immune regulation.
6. Reduce fatigue and boost body metabolism
Astaxanthin is an antioxidant that can protect the body from oxidative damage. Oral astaxanthin also improves aerobic metabolism, increases muscle strength, tolerance and endurance, relieves fatigue quickly and reduces delayed muscle pain following intense exercise.
