Astaxanthin belongs to the group of carotenoids. These natural plant pigments are responsible for the colors in vegetables and fruits. Specifically, it belongs to the subclass of xanthophylls and is considered one of the most powerful antioxidants.
Natural astaxanthin is produced in a specific biochemical process by photosynthetic algae, bacteria and yeasts. The astaxanthin used in the product is extracted from the natural green algae Haematococcus pluvialis. Compared to other raw materials such as yeast, green algae has by far the highest concentration of astaxanthin. In addition, the chemical structure of the active ingredient from the microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis differs significantly from the yeast variant. The astaxanthin from the microalgae is directly linked to fatty acids and is present as monoesters and diesters.
Molecularly, the "algal astaxanthin" has 40 carbon atoms and many conjugated double bonds.
The result of this different chemical structure is a significantly higher bioavailability and a significantly better antioxidant potential in favor of the green algae form.
The product has been manufactured using the patented AstaFit® process, which has been specifically developed for use in dietary supplements.
AstaFit® vegan astaxanthin capsules are 100% vegan and consist of an oleoresin from the astaxanthin-rich microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis, vitamin E and vitamin D. The microalgae production takes place under controlled conditions in closed indoor systems.
