Astaxanthin Solution 1%

Astaxanthin Solution 1% is a water-soluble liquid preparation made of astaxanthin oil. Since astaxanthin is naturally oil-soluble, uses have been limited to soft capsules. By making a water-soluble preparation, astaxanthin may be included in drinks, jellies and other various food. This product is a dark red liquid containing 1% astaxanthin. Astaxanthin Solution 1% is heat and acid resistant.

Astaxanthin is a type of carotenoids, which are natural red colorants mainly included in seafood such as salmon, salmon roe, shrimp, crabs and in a type of algae called haematococcus. Astaxanthin reduces free radicals and active oxygen, such as singlet oxygen, which are harmful to the human body. Its antioxidative potency is said to be 10 times stronger than betacarotene, and 1000 times than vitamin E.
