AstaPure™ Astaxanthin

AstaPure™ 2 percent Astaxanthin Beadlets from Algatech.

Dosage: 200 milligrams 2 times a day. Adding 12 grams to your order is a months supply.

1. The best method is to have us mix your AstaPure with one-half pound of Glyconutrients or Trehalose.
2. The 1/2 pound Glyconutrient mix with AstaPure would require 1 level teaspoon - twice a day to obtain a dose just under 400 mg.
3. The 1 pound of Trehalose mix would require 2 level teaspoons - twice a day to obtain about 400 mg.

Astaxanthin Beadlets are a microencapsulated natural astaxanthin complex extracted from Haematococcus pluvialis algal biomass by Supercritical CO2 extraction technology.

Astaxanthin - a superb natural antioxidant and a member of the carotenoid family, is a dark-red pigment which is the main carotenoid found in the marine world of algae and aquatic animals. Astaxanthin is present in many types of seafood, including salmon, trout, red sea bream, shrimp and lobster, as well as in birds such as flamingo and quail. This pigment is commercially produced from the microalga Haematococcus pluvialis, the richest known natural source for Astaxanthin.
