What is Astaxanthin
Astaxanthin is a lipid-soluble pigment, made from natrual Haematococcus Pluvialis. Astaxanthin powder has excellent antioxidant and healthcare benefits, and it is helpful to improve immunity and scavenge free radicals.
Astaxanthin powder is used in food and dietary supplements as coloring agent, preserving agent and nutritional ingredient; it can be used in feed as additives; it can also be used in cosmetics for skin care; besides, it can be used in healthcare products.
Astaxanthin also known as astaxanthin and astaxanthin. In 1933, a purple-red crystal was extracted from shrimp, crab and other aquatic products. It was later determined to be a carotenoid closely related to astaxanthin, so it was named astaxanthin. It is widely found in shrimps, crabs, fish, birds, certain algae and fungi. As a non-provitamin A carotenoid, astaxanthin cannot be converted into vitamin A in the animal body, but it has the same antioxidant effect as carotenoids. Its ability to quench singlet oxygen and capture free radicals is better than β -Carotene is more than 10 times higher and more than 100 times stronger than vitamin E. People also call it "super vitamin E". Astaxanthin has been widely recognized for its antioxidant properties, coloring properties, and immune-enhancing properties. The United States and other countries have allowed it to be used in production as a food additive. As a natural food additive, it has broad development prospects.

Benefits
1.Anti-oxidation,The important property of astaxanthin lies in its antioxidant properties. It is an excellent antioxidant. Astaxanthin’s powerful antioxidant activity is due to its ability to stabilize the membrane structure, reduce membrane permeability, and restrict peroxide promoters from entering cells. Protects important intracellular molecules from oxidative damage. At the same time, astaxanthin may have the potential to become a pro-oxidant and induce oxidative stress. The conjugated double bonds, hydroxyl group and unsaturated ketone group at the end of the conjugated double bond chain in the astaxanthin molecule. The hydroxyl group and ketone group constitute α-hydroxyketone. These structures have relatively active electronic effects and can Provide electrons to free radicals or attract unpaired electrons of free radicals, effectively quenching highly oxidizing singlet reactive oxygen species and other free radicals in the environment.
In addition, experiments show that astaxanthin can increase antioxidant enzyme activity and protein expression. Different doses of astaxanthin significantly increase the protein expression of catalase and superoxide dismutase in animal cells, and its biological activity also increases. Significantly improved, and these substances all play a good antioxidant role in the body.
2.Enhance immunity,Astaxanthin can significantly enhance the body's local and systemic immunity. This immunomodulatory property combined with antioxidant properties plays an important role in preventing the occurrence and spread of diseases. Experiments have shown that carotenoids can slow down the decline in immunity caused by aging, improve the function of the body's immune organs, and enhance resistance to harsh environments. More importantly, astaxanthin can enhance the function of T cells in the body, increase the number of neutrophils and natural killer cells, and participate in the body's cellular immunity.
3.Coloration,Carotenoids are the main pigment substances in aquatic animals, and astaxanthin accounts for the majority of carotenoids in aquatic animals. Therefore, it can be said that astaxanthin is the main pigment substance in aquatic animals. Astaxanthin is the end point of carotenoid synthesis. After it enters the animal body, it can be stored directly in the tissue without modification or biochemical transformation. It has strong pigment deposition ability, making the skin and muscles of some aquatic animals appear healthy and bright. The color makes the eggs and feathers, skin, feet and neck of the birds appear healthy golden yellow or red. Experiments have shown that adding astaxanthin to the feed not only turns the fish's epidermis yellow, but also increases the astaxanthin content in the muscles.
