People who use it emphasize that it has helped them recover faster, reduce arthritic pains, increase energy levels, avoid getting the flu, less common colds, or avoid sunburn despite prolonged exposure to the sun.
As if that were not enough, astaxanthin does not cause any side effects, and works great for many different diseases. By taking this substance, we maintain the vitality and youthful appearance of the skin for longer.
Sources of astaxanthin. Where can you find it?
We find it primarily in algae, phytoplankton and some plants, bacteria and fungi. Due to the fact that they sometimes end up in the bodies of animals (due to their place in the food chain), natural astaxanthin is found in every reddish or pink marine animal – crab, salmon, lobster or shrimp.
The most concentrated form of this ingredient is found in salmon, which is why they are fish that can swim in very extreme conditions. Regular use of a daily dose (from 4 to 8 mg) of natural astaxanthin will increase human strength and immunity. It is most often sold in the form of tablets as a dietary supplement, although of course the consumption of red marine animals also provides us with it. The preparation is best taken orally.
