Astaxanthin

A red carotenoid 6,000x stronger than vitamin C as an antioxidant. Crosses the blood-retinal barrier. Clinical studies show improved visual acuity, accommodation, and reduced eye fatigue.
✅ Key Benefits
📋 How to Use Astaxanthin
Take 6-12mg astaxanthin daily with a fatty meal. Natural (from algae) only — not synthetic.
⚠️ Safety & Precautions
Use natural algae-derived only (not synthetic). May cause orange tint to skin at high doses.
☠️ Overdose & Toxicity Risks
⚠️ What happens if taken in excess:
Very safe. May cause reddish-orange skin tint at very high doses (>40mg/day) — harmless and reversible. Synthetic astaxanthin may not have the same safety profile as natural (algae-derived) form. Very rarely causes GI upset. No significant organ toxicity has been documented.
