A bright-red antioxidant carotenoid, astaxanthin improves the condition of the skin, enhances recovery from exercise, relieves occasional indigestion, supports gastric health, helps maintain cholesterol levels already within a healthy range, enhances immune response, promotes healthy vision, and supports the male reproductive system.*

However, astaxanthin is virtually insoluble in gastric and intestinal fluids, giving it poor bioavailability. Even in solubilized formulas, it quickly precipitates out once saturation is reached, making it hard for the body to absorb and utilize. MicroActive Astaxanthin was developed to address this issue through a micronized, sustained-release technology that allows for better absorption and retention.

A pilot human study comparing MicroActive Astaxanthin to another astaxanthin preparation (10% astaxanthin in oil) showed it has:

• Uniformly enhanced absorption in all users 
• Higher continued absorption over time
• 3.6x higher uptake than regular astaxanthin (10% astaxanthin in oil)

• 24 hour sustained release
• Convenient one-a-day dosing while achieving maximum benefit
