Brief Introduction

Astaxanthin is a natural nutritional component, it can be found as a food supplement. The supplement is intended for human, animal, and aquaculture consumption.

Astaxanthin is a carotenoid. It belongs to a larger class of phytochemicals known as terpenes, which are built from five carbon precursors; isopentenyl diphosphate and dimethylallyl diphosphate . Astaxanthin is classified as a xanthophyll (originally derived from a word meaning “yellow leaves” since yellow plant leaf pigments were the first recognized of the xanthophyll family of carotenoids), but currently employed to describe carotenoid compounds that have oxygen-containing moities, hydroxyl or ketone , such as zeaxanthin and canthaxanthin. Indeed, astaxanthin is a metabolite of zeaxanthin and/or canthaxanthin, containing both hydroxyl and ketone functional groups. Like many carotenoids, astaxanthin is a colorful, lipid-soluble pigment. This colour is due to the extended chain of conjugated (alternating double and single) double bonds at the centre of the compound. This chain of conjugated double bonds is also responsible for the antioxidant function of astaxanthin (as well as other carotenoids) as it results in a region of decentralized electrons that can be donated to reduce a reactive oxidizing molecule.

Function:

1.Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant and may protect against oxidative damage to body tissues.

2.Astaxanthin can improve the immune response by increasing the number of antibody producing cells.

3.Astaxanthin is a potential candidate to treat neurodegenerative disease such as Alzhimer and Parkinson diease.

4.Astaxanthin dan reduce UVA-light damage to skin such as sunburn, inflammation, ageing and skin cancer.

Application

1.When applied in pharmaceutical field, astaxanthin powder has the good function of antineoplastic;

2.When applied in health food field, astaxanthin powder is used as food additives for pigment and health care;

3.When applied in cosmetic field, astaxanthin powder has the good function of antioxidant and anti-aging;

4.When applied in animal feeds field, astaxanthin powder is used as animal feed additive to impart coloration, including farm-raised salmon and egg yolks.

Azantis Premium Krill Oil Reviews – Does Azantis Premium Krill Oil Work?

Azantis Premium Krill Oil Blend is a natural extract from Antarctic krill Euphausia superba, combined with high quality fish oils. This premium blend was created at the request of several customers with a desire to replace the lower quality krill oil triglycerides with high quality fish omega-3 concentrates

It contains 420 mg Omega-3 phospholipids per serving. 1.5 mg Astaxanthin per serving. It is seven times more Astaxanthin than pure Antarctic Krill Oil, while at the same time ensuring that all phospholipids, the key ingredient in krill oil, remain 100% derived from Euphausia superba.

Krill phospholipids have a higher absorption rate then fish triglycerides. By blending the two, we increase the quantity of Omega-3 bonded to the Krill phospholipids, resulting in a higher Omega-3 absorption than pure krill oil. The combination of additional Omega-3 bonded to phospholipids and boosted Astaxanthin levels make this a premium and superior product.
