AstaReal® Astaxanthin deposits in cell membranes and quenches reactive oxygen species both inside the membrane and on the membrane periphery. Natural astaxanthin from algae has a unique structure that spans the thickness of the membrane for better antioxidant coverage. Astaxanthin has 6000x the antioxidant capacity of vitamin C when tested against singlet oxygen.
