What makes astaxanthin one of Mother Nature’s most powerful antioxidants?**

Among all of the naturally occurring antioxidants in the world, astaxanthin is completely unmatched in its antioxidant strength and potency. Due to its potent oxygen-quenching properties, astaxanthin helps protect the body from oxidative damage. Astaxanthin also possesses a unique molecular structure that allows it to move throughout your body more efficiently than other antioxidants. This makes astaxanthin one of the most powerful free-radical scavengers that can be absorbed by the human body. Compared to other antioxidants, astaxanthin is: 

• 6,000x more powerful as an antioxidant than vitamin C
• 800x better at singlet oxygen quenching than CoQ10
• 550x more powerful than green tea catechins and vitamin E
• 75x stronger than alpha-lipoic acid
• 54x more effective at scavenging free radicals than beta-carotene
• 10x more powerful than other antioxidant carotenoids, such as lutein, zeaxanthin and beta-carotene

Astaxanthin is simply more efficient at influencing some physiological processes than other antioxidants. Furthermore, astaxanthin does not become a pro-oxidant in the body, which sets it apart from other less-effective antioxidants.

NOTE: Since astaxanthin is fat-soluble, make sure to take it with some form of healthy fat in order to make the most out of this supplement.

Why choose Groovy Bee® Astaxanthin Softgels?** 

It is a safe, easy and cost-efficient way to get astaxanthin – Regularly consuming brightly colored seafoods, such as trout, shrimp, salmon and other sea creatures, can boost your intake of astaxanthin by a small amount. However, you can get a much more concentrated form of astaxanthin from supplements without the risk of mercury contamination -- a common problem with seafood. Each softgel of Groovy Bee® Astaxanthin contains exactly 12 mg of astaxanthin, making it easier for you to acquire your daily dose of this potent antioxidant affordably.
