Description:

Astaxanthin, a naturally occurring carotenoid pigment, is a powerful biological antioxidant. Astaxanthin exhibits strong free radical scavenging activity and protects against lipid peroxidation and oxidative damage of LDL-cholesterol, cell membranes, cells, and tissues. Astaxanthin has been the focus of a large and growing number of peer-reviewed scientific publications.

Astaxanthin plays many important biological functions in these species, including:
1.Improved protection against oxidation and photo-oxidation
2.Reproduction and development
3.Immune response
4.Resistance to disease
5.Reproductive behaviour
