Astaxanthin supplement:  The  most important thing to know about astaxanthin is; it is a carotenoid. Carontenoid has a nutritional role for its production of Vitamin A.  Vitamin A is found in fruits and vegetables.  Astaxanthin's function with the human body is to play a protective role, protecting the cells from free radicals.  Another source of carotenoid is Alpha-carotene, which is in red and yellow colored foods, like tomatoes, apples, carrots and wild salmon.

Unlike certains foods we just mentioned ( and many more), astaxanthin will not convert to Vitamin A, (and too much Vitamin A can be harmful to the human body), but astaxanthin is not harmful as it takes its' role as a powerful antioxidant.

Astaxanthin can be used in it's natural form  ( which is chemically produced), or you can buy it as a supplement. Its red pigment is taken from red colored shell fish like shrimp.

BioAstin (astaxanthin), taken everyday will give you the fullest benefits for anti-inflamatory properties and antioxidants.  This product is held  in the top three in those categories.

Astaxanthin is another nutrient that's superb for eye protection from the suns radiation. It also works as a sunscreen  for the insides of our bodies by promoting tolerance to the same radiation on our skin.
