Astaxanthin, 60 capsules

The astaxanthin capsules contain a natural astaxanthin extract from the algae Haematococcus pluvialis. Dissolved in high-quality sunflower lecithin and sunflower oil for better absorption.

What is astaxanthin?

Astaxanthin is a natural red pigment that belongs to the class of carotenoids.

Do you know why crustaceans and salmon are red? The answer is astaxanthin! It's mainly produced by green algae. These algae serve as food for crustaceans and salmon. This is how they absorb the red pigment. Salmon also use it to obtain energy for their often long journeys to their spawning grounds.

Under difficult living conditions, such as sudden cold or drought, algae produce more natural astaxanthin to protect themselves.

What is special about Astaxanthin from Quintessence?

Quintessence Astaxanthin capsules are made with a natural astaxanthin extract from the algae Haematococcus pluvialis.

Many astaxanthin supplements on the market contain ground algae. This is inexpensive, but not very gentle on the raw material. Firstly, this can generate heat, which can cause damage. Secondly, the mechanical grinding also destroys important structures. This processing makes the raw material highly susceptible to oxidation.

In contrast, Quintessence's astaxanthin capsules contain only astaxanthin extracted using natural carbon dioxide (CO2 extraction). The use of solvents is deliberately avoided. This method of production is very gentle, but also costly and time-consuming. However, the astaxanthin is optimally protected.

The production of capsules with natural astaxanthin

The algae are cultivated in a fully enclosed, laboratory-quality production system, thus eliminating the risk of microbial contamination of the astaxanthin.

The water for cultivation comes from the company's own groundwater source. Production takes place exclusively with green energy. Continuous monitoring of all phases of astaxanthin production ensures a 100% pure, natural product of the highest possible quality. Naturally, the use of genetic engineering is avoided.

Taking Astaxanthin Capsules

The recommended intake is one capsule per day. Astaxanthin is better absorbed with oil. The capsules themselves contain sunflower lecithin to improve the absorption of astaxanthin into the body. Astaxanthin is particularly popular among athletes. Many people also like to take it before or after sunbathing.
