Whole-Body Benefits of Astaxanthin

Astaxanthin has been studied in numerous human clinical trials and is known for supporting a wide range of health functions throughout the body. As one of nature’s most powerful antioxidants, astaxanthin helps protect cells from oxidative stress while supporting a healthy inflammatory response and overall cellular balance.†

Because astaxanthin can travel throughout the body and integrate into cell membranes, it provides antioxidant protection across multiple organ systems. Its ability to reach tissues such as the brain, eyes, muscles, and skin allows it to support many aspects of overall health and performance.†

Astaxanthin may help support:

• Immune system health†
• Brain health and cognitive function†
• Cardiovascular health†
• A healthy inflammatory response†
• Joint and tendon health†
• Skin hydration, elasticity, and healthy aging†
• Eye health and visual function†
• Protection from oxidative stress caused by UV and environmental exposure†
• Cellular health and membrane protection†
• Supports healthy cellular energy production†
• Healthy recovery following exercise†
• Athletic endurance and performance†

By supporting cellular integrity and helping protect mitochondria from oxidative stress, astaxanthin helps support healthy cellular energy production and overall vitality.†

Astaxanthin – The King of the Carotenoids

Often referred to as “the king of the carotenoids,” astaxanthin is recognized as one of the most powerful natural antioxidants discovered to date. Research suggests that astaxanthin provides significantly greater antioxidant activity than many well-known antioxidants.

Studies indicate that astaxanthin may be:

• 100× stronger than Vitamin E
• 10–20× stronger than beta-carotene
• 800× stronger than CoQ10
• Up to 6,000× stronger than Vitamin C

Unlike some antioxidants, astaxanthin does not become pro-oxidant in the body. This means it continues to provide antioxidant protection without reversing its role under certain conditions, making it especially valuable for supporting long-term cellular health and healthy aging.†

One of astaxanthin’s most unique characteristics is its molecular structure, which allows it to span the entire cell membrane. Because it contains both water-soluble and fat-soluble ends, astaxanthin can protect the full thickness of the cell membrane—something most antioxidants cannot do.†

Astaxanthin is also able to cross important biological barriers such as the blood-brain barrier and the blood-retinal barrier, allowing antioxidant protection to reach sensitive tissues including the brain, nervous system, and eyes.†

In addition, astaxanthin can reach the mitochondria—the energy-producing centers of the cell—helping protect them from oxidative stress and supporting healthy cellular energy production.†

More About Astaxanthin

Astaxanthin is a naturally occurring carotenoid pigment responsible for the red coloration seen in salmon, shrimp, crab, lobster, and the pink color of flamingos. In nature, this powerful antioxidant originates from the microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis.

This microalgae produces astaxanthin as a protective compound to defend itself from harsh environmental conditions such as intense sunlight and oxidative stress.

Astaxanthin can be obtained in small amounts from certain foods such as salmon, but the concentration in most foods is relatively low. In fact, a person would need to consume several pounds of salmon each day to obtain the same amount of astaxanthin found in a single 12 mg serving.

Because astaxanthin used in these products is derived from microalgae rather than seafood, it contains no fish or shellfish byproducts, making it suitable for vegetarian and vegan formulations.

Why Hawaiian Astaxanthin Is Unique

Hawaiian Astaxanthin is derived from the microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis, cultivated on the Kona Coast of Hawaii. Nutrex Hawaii produces the only farm-grown astaxanthin in the United States, grown under carefully controlled conditions that help ensure purity, potency, and sustainability.

The Kona Coast provides ideal growing conditions for microalgae, including abundant year-round sunlight, a stable tropical climate, and access to pure freshwater drawn from deep Hawaiian aquifers. These natural advantages allow Nutrex Hawaii to cultivate high-quality natural astaxanthin using environmentally responsible farming practices.

The Nutrex Hawaii microalgae farm is considered a BioSecure Zone, meaning it is free from harmful pesticides, herbicides, and genetically modified organisms. Their cultivation process is designed to protect both the environment and product quality while minimizing land impact and water waste.

Fresh water used in the cultivation process is naturally filtered through volcanic lava rock and drawn from pristine Hawaiian aquifers. Much of the water is recycled and returned to the growing ponds to conserve resources and support sustainable production.

These unique environmental conditions and cultivation practices help produce one of the purest and most carefully cultivated sources of natural astaxanthin available.

Natural vs Synthetic Astaxanthin

Astaxanthin exists in both natural and synthetic forms. Natural astaxanthin is produced by the microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis, while synthetic astaxanthin is typically manufactured through chemical processes and is commonly used in aquaculture to color farmed salmon and other seafood.

Natural astaxanthin contains a complex mixture of stereoisomers and esterified forms similar to the astaxanthin found in nature. These naturally occurring forms help contribute to the stability and biological activity of natural astaxanthin when consumed as a dietary supplement.

In contrast, synthetic astaxanthin has a different stereoisomer profile and is primarily produced for use in animal feed rather than human dietary supplements. For this reason, natural astaxanthin derived from microalgae is generally preferred for nutritional supplementation.

Astaxanthin used in BioAstin® Hawaiian Astaxanthin® is sourced from microalgae cultivated on the Kona Coast of Hawaii. This natural source provides astaxanthin in a form that closely resembles the astaxanthin found in nature while supporting purity, quality, and sustainability.

Safety & Side Effects of Astaxanthin

Astaxanthin has been widely studied and is generally considered safe when taken at recommended doses. Reported side effects are typically mild and uncommon.

Possible mild effects may include:

• Slight change in skin pigmentation (a light orange tint)
• Orange-red coloration of stool at very high doses

Studies have reported no toxic side effects even at high intake levels.†

Less common reported effects may include:

• Hair growth changes
• Changes in hormone levels
• Allergic reactions
• Decreased calcium levels
• Low blood pressure

As with any dietary supplement, individuals taking prescription medications—especially medications used to treat blood pressure, allergies, or asthma—should consult a healthcare professional before use.

About Nutrex Hawaii

Nutrex Hawaii was founded in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii in 1990 by Dr. Gerald Cysewski, a world-renowned expert in microalgae and carotenoids. The company was established with a mission to harness the benefits of microalgae to support human health and improve lives worldwide.

Their microalgae farm is located on land carved from an ancient lava flow along the pristine Kona Coast of Hawaii’s Big Island. By combining scientific expertise with Hawaii’s unique natural environment, Nutrex Hawaii has become a global leader in the cultivation of natural astaxanthin.

BioAstin® Hawaiian Astaxanthin® has been available in the United States since 1999, when it completed FDA review and was allowed to be sold as a dietary supplement. Since then, a growing body of scientific research has continued to explore the many health-supporting benefits of astaxanthin.

Today, BioAstin Hawaiian Astaxanthin remains one of the most widely recognized natural astaxanthin supplements available.

Environmental Responsibility & Sustainability

Nutrex Hawaii operates with a strong commitment to environmental stewardship and sustainability. Their philosophy is to leave the land and surrounding environment in better condition than when they began operations.

The cultivation process is designed to minimize environmental impact, conserve water, and protect the natural resources of the Kona Coast. Their microalgae farm uses carefully managed freshwater resources, recycles water when possible, and avoids the use of harmful agricultural chemicals.

Products produced by Nutrex Hawaii are Non-GMO, BSE-free, and manufactured using environmentally responsible cultivation practices, giving consumers confidence in both product quality and environmental responsibility.
