A natural antioxidant
The highest concentration of astaxanthin in nature is found in the microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis. This green alga is capable of producing a red pigment: astaxanthin. This occurs under stressful conditions such as high salinity, nitrogen deficiency, high temperatures and light.
Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant capable of trapping free radicals and protecting cells from oxidative stress. Unlike other antioxidants, astaxanthin has the ability to penetrate all parts of the body, including the eyes and brain.
It has the particularity of not becoming pro-oxidant, unlike many antioxidants which can become pro-oxidant under certain circumstances (vitamin E, β-carotene, zeaxanthin…).
