ASTAXANTHIN


Super antioxidant, scavenging free radicals.

 

PROD­UCT IN­TRO­DUC­TION


Astaxanthin is a red pigment that is an oxygen-containing derivative of carotenoids that occurs naturally in a variety of organisms, including microalgae, crustaceans, salmon, trout, and others. When subjected to environmental stress, the algae cells of Rhodococcus pluvialis will accumulate a large amount of astaxanthin to protect the body, and then change from green to red.

 

Astaxanthin is the strongest natural antioxidant found to date, its antioxidant efficacy is 20-90 times that of synthetic, natural astaxanthin has been extensively studied in terms of human safety, and has been in commercial use for more than 20 years.

Antioxidants. What are they fighting?

Simply put, the use of antioxidants in the product to remove free radicals, slow the pace of skin aging, is a major mainstream of modern skin care.​

 

Free Radicals are super active molecular genes that must either "steal" electrons from other molecules or give away electrons of their own in order to remain stable. When a molecule loses an electron, that molecule is oxidized and becomes a free radical itself. This new free radical in turn steals electrons from other molecules, creating a chain reaction. This process permanently alters the molecular structure, causing irreversible damage. In the long run, it will accelerate the aging process of the human body.

Natural astaxanthin can become the world's highest quality antioxidant, can not be separated from four significant factors:

1. Astaxanthin can cross the blood-brain and blood-retina barriers, giving us antioxidant and anti-inflammatory protection.
2. The long structure of astaxanthin molecules allows it to cross cell membranes and protect the water - and fat-soluble regions of our cells.
3. Astaxanthin never becomes a pro-oxidant.
4. Astaxanthin can bind to muscle tissue.

MAIN BENEFITS


1. antioxidant

There are many new causes of free radicals in modern life, including:

✓ Air and water pollution
✓ Chemicals in the consumer products we use every day
✓ Preservatives, pesticides and additives in the food supply
✓ Stress levels increase in modern life
✓ Increased UV exposure due to ozone reduction

 

➢ Human antioxidant mode, the human body is designed to adapt to normal free radical production in two different ways:

1. First, we naturally produce antioxidants in our bodies, such as superoxide dismutase. It's part of nature's balancing act; But at the same time, our bodies naturally produce antioxidants to eliminate free radicals before they can do any damage.

2. Second, the way our bodies fight oxidation is by absorbing antioxidants from our diet and dispersing them throughout our bodies. For example, when we eat oranges, we consume antioxidants like vitamin C and citrus bioflavonoids.

Astaxanthin is one of the main carotenoids in Marine animals, which has a strong scavenging effect on free radicals. The mechanism is that astaxanthin helps maintain mitochondrial integrity and thus effectively fights aging.

 

Studies have shown that astaxanthin can reduce oxidative stress and maintain mitochondrial integrity by protecting mitochondrial REDOX balance. Astaxanthin keeps mitochondria in a more reduced state, it also prevents the loss of MMP and increases mitochondrial oxygen consumption.

2. Brain health

Astaxanthin protects brain health by protecting DNA and mitochondria. According to research conducted by French and American universities, astaxanthin can cross the blood-brain barrier and blood-retina barrier, thus achieving anti-inflammatory effects, allowing our brain to maintain good function to resist inflammation and oxidative shock.

 

Astaxanthin has been shown to improve memory.

 

The BGG clinical study showed that after taking BGG astaxanthin products for 12 weeks, the changes in comprehensive memory (verbal memory + visual memory) were significantly greater than those in the control group.

In the questionnaire, "whether there was a situation of forgetting names or objects in the last week", the change of astaxanthin group was also significantly greater than that of the control group.

3. Cardiovascular, cardiac protection

Natural astaxanthin has the ability to improve the lipid profile by lowering LDL (low density lipoprotein or bad cholesterol) and triglycerides and increasing HDL (high density lipoprotein or good cholesterol), thus countering the cholesterol mechanism of action.

 

4. Eye health

Astaxanthin acts as a strong antioxidant and broad-spectrum anti-inflammatory that can cross the blood-brain barrier to enter the brain. Once in the brain, it must be able to cross the blood-retinal barrier, bringing antioxidant and anti-inflammatory protection to the eye. (Shimidzu et al., 1996; Nishida et al., 2007; Ohgami et al., 2003; Lee et al., 2003)

 

Numerous studies have shown that natural astaxanthin supplementation has a variety of potential benefits for the eye:

1. Improved vision (ability to see details)
2. Treat or prevent eye strain (eye strain)
3. Reduce blurred vision
4. Increase the amplitude of adjustment (the lens adjusts to make it focus)
5. Prevent eye strain
6. Relieve sore eyes
7. Prevent dry eyes
8. Improve depth perception
9. Prevent double vision (double vision)
10. Increase blood flow to the retina and retina of the eye's vascular layer
11. Increase the speed of blood flow to the eyes

5. Immune support

6. Joint health

7. Beauty care

 

✓ Take an internal beauty pill: Taking 4-6 mg of natural astaxanthin daily can improve the appearance and quality of skin for 4-6 weeks.

✓ Skin Health Guardian: Astaxanthin has been shown to improve not only the appearance and quality of skin, but also the health of the skin.

✓ UV protectors: The last category is actually closely related to the first two: astaxanthin, having had time to accumulate in the skin, has shown a protective effect against sustained damage from UV exposure.
