If you want to be filled in more about Astaxanthin you could check out my earlier blogs on it.. This a review on mostly Zeaxanthin. See thing is Astaxanthin is actually much stronger than zeaxanthin… but, zeaxanthin tends to have better absorbsion in the eyes, skin and optic / auditory nerves making it much more effective in those areas..
If your eyesight is one of your priorities then consider zeaxanthin.. Perhaps through the many foods such as spinach, kale, eggs, turnip greens, collard greens, romaine lettuce, broccoli, zucchini, corn, garden peas and Brussels sprouts.. Although the problem lies in moderation..Its hard to say you’d get what you need from the food alone unless you have a prepared diet and stuck with it..
That’s often where the supplements come in.. I’ve tried Noagin, and can say it works well. Its a mix between Zeaxanthin, Astaxanthin, and Lutein. A concentrated formula for maintaining a healthy body, wrinkles, eyesight,memory, prevention of cancer, aswell as others. I’ve gone more into depth on a previous blog. They really are super antioxidants.

Astaxanthin is a phytochemical. Now let’s get into why you “need” antioxidants.. Why most of health/aging/free radical problems are caused by lack of them. You have to go to a molecular level to know.. The process of aging/breaking down and repairing as you were a kid is because of Free Radicals.. There caused by really many things really.. Bad eating habits/smoking,enviroment. The body already scavenges for them but it’s really not enough.. See what a free radical is - Is an unstable atom.. Behaves differently.. Missing an electron. Now.. the atom is the foundation.. of dna meaning now it’s been corrupted of some sort.. Now that means the blueprints that tell your cells how to multiply/where to go - Is corrupted. You may ask well.. Whats that do? Mutation. If you have enough mutated cells in your body that are still being nourished because your dna can’t tell the difference.. Well then that’s what you call “cancer”.
It’s the same reason you age.. I’ll get to why now. Your body is unable to reproduce liek you were a kid because of free radicals.. But how do you get free radicals? Oxidation… Yes. Oxygen. The thing that gives of life vitality gives us cancer? Well actually there’s been studies to where athletes who consume even more oxygen have a higher chance of getting cancer. Well why?.. Well simple. Oxygens job is to combust.. Look at some metals.. Corosion/rust.. At an atomic level oxygen breaks down healthy atoms. Starting this process.
Now this is where antioxidants.. They let oxygen to oxiginate the cells but stops them from oxidizing the components of cells (Atoms). Food that are filled with the vitamins you need still don’t have enough for the job..This is why you have you super antioxidants.. Astaxanthin is 500x’s to 10,000x’s more effective at preventing oxidation at an atomic level - More then the most common vitamins..Lutein where you can find at the grocery store/pharmacy. If your interested in super antioxidants “noagin” produced from JBNI.. contains Astaxanthin/Zeaxanthin and is the most powerful formulation of super antioxidants available. Info from Wan(Herbholist)/JBNI./Herbholist.com Phytochemicals.. Micro Algae.
Now.. More on Astaxanthin/Phytochemicals.
Too much vitamin A is toxic for a human but astaxanthin is not. Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant and is more capable then other cartenoids. Currently, the primary untampered source for astaxanthin is haemtococcus pluvialis.
Supposedly accumulates the highest levels of astaxanthin in nature known. Astaxanthin can be found in krill/plankton/artic shrimp/Phaffia Yeast/ Also as said before Haemtococcus pluvialis. Research shows that due to astaxanthin’s potent antioxidant activity-it may be beneficial too cardiovascular, immune, inflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases. (Hmm). It also crosses the blood brain barrier/ which makes it available to the eye, brain and central nervous system to alleviate oxidative stress that contributes to ocular, neuro diseases such as - glaucoma and Alzheimer’s. Research also shows that it protects body tissues from oxidative damage as said above.
