Micro Wholefoods
Pure Organic Astaxanthin - 100g
What is Micro Wholefoods Astaxanthin?
Experience the remarkable power of nature with Micro Wholefoods All Natural & Organic Astaxanthin Powder 100g. Derived from freshwater microalgae (Haematococcus pluvialis) and the yeast fungus Xanthophyllomyces dendrorhous, this blood-red pigment is a true gift from the earth.
Astaxanthin is a potent antioxidant with far-reaching health benefits. Unlike other antioxidants like beta-carotene, zeaxanthin, and vitamins E, C, D, and selenium, astaxanthin never turns into a pro-oxidant within the body. This means you can enjoy its powerful effects without any concerns.
Harnessing the power of astaxanthin, our product offers exceptional anti-inflammatory properties and provides effective pain relief. By reducing the inflammatory compounds that underlie various chronic diseases, astaxanthin stands out as a natural alternative to prescription analgesics. Unlike its pharmaceutical counterparts, astaxanthin carries no risk of addiction, GI bleeds, or heartburn. In fact, astaxanthin works synergistically with medications like Celebrex, commonly prescribed for osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, acute pain, and monthly dysmenorrhea. Combining astaxanthin with Celebrex can offer a comprehensive approach to pain management, subject to your doctor's approval.
Beyond its impact on the COX-2 pathway, natural astaxanthin also suppresses serum levels of nitric oxide, interleukin 1B, prostaglandin E2, C Reactive Protein (CRP), and TNF-alpha (tumour necrosis factor-alpha). Scientific studies have consistently demonstrated these effects. Notably, natural astaxanthin has been proven to reduce CRP by over 20% in just eight weeks—a feat unmatched by any prescription drug. This is particularly significant as the American Heart Association identifies CRP as a key indicator of heart disease.
Embrace the goodness of nature with Micro Wholefoods All Natural & Organic Astaxanthin Powder 100g, and unlock a world of vibrant health and well-being.

Benefits
Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant that belongs to the carotenoid family, known for its red pigment. While research on its benefits is ongoing, there is evidence to suggest that it may offer a variety of health benefits when taken as a supplement. However, it's important to note that individual responses can vary.
Here are some potential benefits of taking 1g of astaxanthin per day:
1. Antioxidant Protection: Astaxanthin is known for its potent antioxidant properties, which can help protect cells and tissues from oxidative stress caused by free radicals. This can contribute to overall cellular health and potentially reduce the risk of chronic diseases.
2. Inflammation Support: Astaxanthin has been studied for its anti-inflammatory effects. It may help modulate inflammation in the body, which could be beneficial for conditions related to chronic inflammation, such as arthritis and other inflammatory disorders.
3. Skin Health: Astaxanthin's antioxidant properties may contribute to skin health by protecting against UV damage and promoting a healthy complexion. Some studies suggest that astaxanthin might improve skin elasticity, moisture levels, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
4. Eye Health: Astaxanthin has shown potential in supporting eye health. It may help protect the eyes from oxidative stress, and some research suggests it could have a positive impact on conditions like age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and eye fatigue.
5. Heart Health: Some studies suggest that astaxanthin may have cardiovascular benefits. It may help improve blood lipid profiles by reducing LDL cholesterol levels and increasing HDL cholesterol levels. Additionally, its antioxidant properties may contribute to overall heart health.
6. Exercise Performance: Astaxanthin's potential anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects might contribute to improved exercise performance and reduced muscle fatigue. It may also help with muscle recovery after intense workouts.
7. Cognitive Health: Preliminary research suggests that astaxanthin may have neuroprotective properties and could potentially support cognitive function. It may help protect brain cells from oxidative damage and inflammation.
8. Diabetes Support: Some studies have indicated that astaxanthin may have a positive impact on blood sugar levels and insulin sensitivity. It could potentially contribute to better management of diabetes and metabolic health.
9. Joint Health: Astaxanthin's anti-inflammatory properties might be beneficial for individuals with joint conditions such as arthritis. It may help reduce pain and stiffness in the joints.
10. Pain Relief: Astaxanthin's potential to reduce inflammation may contribute to pain relief in various conditions, such as arthritis, muscle soreness, and general discomfort.
It's worth noting that while astaxanthin shows promise in these areas, more research is needed to fully understand its mechanisms of action and the extent of its benefits. Additionally, the recommended dosage can vary depending on factors such as an individual's health status and the specific condition being targeted.
