Swanson – Astaxanthin – Maximum Strength 12mg 30SG
When it comes to antioxidant protection, each of us must have enough to meet the challenges of our free-radical workload, which can depend on variables like mental and physical stress, air and water pollution, physical activity levels, concentrations of chemicals in foods and other factors. In addition, the dietary antioxidants we depend on to defend against free radicals tend to concentrate in certain organs or tissues, adding another consideration to the equation. This is why Swanson has developed their Maximum Strength Astaxanthin with 12 mg per softgel to help tailor your antioxidant intake to meet your specific needs.
As a fat-soluble antioxidant, astaxanthin is particularly beneficial for the brain, skin and other organs with high concentrations of fatty acids. In the skin, astaxanthin is especially valuable for protecting against free radicals generated by the activity of the sun’s ultraviolet radiation. The antioxidant properties of astaxanthin also help protect the heart and blood vessels against oxidative stress and promote healthy eye function. Emerging research indicates that astaxanthin may also offer benefits for exercise performance and recovery.
It occurs in many foods, including salmon, crab and lobster (to which it provides their rich red color), but the best source by far is the microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis, which can yield 8,000 times the astaxanthin concentration found in salmon. For optimal effectiveness, Swanson softgels are delivered in a base of safflower and olive oils to enhance the bioavailability of this fat-soluble nutrient.
