Microalgae-extracted carotenoid to promote antioxidant status*

Haematococcus pluvialis algae are one of the richest sources of natural astaxanthin. Astaxanthin is a reddish pigment that gives salmon and crustaceans such as krill, lobster, and shrimp their vibrant pink color. The unique structure of astaxanthin enables it to provide superior support for the cell membrane and lipids against the normal effects of oxidative stress.*
