What is Astaxanthin? Where does it come from?

Astaxanthin is a carotenoid pigment that occurs in salmon, microalgae, yeast and shrimp, among other marine organisms. This substance is most commonly found in Pacific salmon and gives the fish a pinkish color. The antioxidant astaxanthin provides many health benefits.
Astaxanthin is an antioxidant that can protect cells from damage, as well as improve how the immune system works. Specifically, it helps make skin healthier, increases endurance, cardiovascular health, reduces joint pain and can even treat cancer in the future.
Oral astaxanthin supplements are used to treat Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, stroke, high cholesterol, liver disease, age-related macular degeneration (age-related vision loss), and cancer prevention. In addition, the drug is used for metabolic syndrome – which includes conditions that increase the risk of heart disease, stroke and diabetes. Taking astaxanthin also helps improve exercise performance, reduce muscle damage and muscle soreness after exercise, prevent sunburn, improve sleep, treat carpal tunnel syndrome, indigestion, and infertility. male fertility, menopausal symptoms and rheumatoid arthritis.
In addition, astaxanthin cream applied directly to the skin helps with sun protection, reduces wrinkles and some other cosmetic benefits.
In foods, the antioxidant astaxanthin is used as a coloring agent for salmon, crab, shrimp, chicken and eggs. In agriculture, astaxanthin is used as a supplementary food for egg-laying chickens.

Health benefits

1. Antioxidants
   Antioxidants in general are very good for health. Specifically, the antioxidant astaxanthin has properties that improve blood flow and reduce oxidative stress in smokers and overweight individuals, particularly supporting cancer treatment. According to a study comparing carotenoids, astaxanthin has the highest antioxidant activity, effectively combating free radicals.
2. Cancer
   Due to its antioxidant properties, there has been a lot of research on how astaxanthin can be used to treat various cancers. One study has found short- and long-term benefits in breast cancer treatment, including inhibiting breast cancer cell growth. However, the high cost of pure astaxanthin is a limitation in cancer research and treatment.
3. Skin
   Astaxanthin can be used as a topical cream to promote healthy skin. A 2012 study found that a combination of topical and oral astaxanthin can smooth wrinkles, shrink age spots, and help maintain skin moisture. There have been positive results in both men and women, but more research is needed to confirm these findings.
4. Exercise enhancement
   There have been many studies on the effects of astaxanthin on endurance, as well as the level of fatigue after exercise. Studies on mice show that the antioxidant astaxanthin has the ability to promote the body’s use of fatty acids, helping to increase endurance and prevent muscle and bone damage. However, to date there is still a lack of evidence on the effects of astaxanthin on human exercise performance. One human study did not find astaxanthin supplements effective in reducing muscle injuries.
5. Cardiovascular health
   Researchers are also looking into astaxanthin’s claims that it benefits heart health. A 2006 study examined the effects of astaxanthin on rats with hypertension. The results indicate that this substance can help improve elastin levels and arterial wall thickness. However, there is still not enough evidence to prove that astaxanthin is effective in preventing heart disease and helping reduce cholesterol.
6. Joint Health
   Astaxanthin also shows promise for treating joint conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis and carpal tunnel syndrome. However, to date, the results obtained are still contradictory. Some studies show that astaxanthin may reduce symptoms of inflammation and pain associated with arthritis. However, another study found no relationship between carpal tunnel syndrome and astaxanthin. Despite this, astaxanthin remains promising for treating rheumatoid arthritis.
7. Male Fertility
   In a 2005 study, astaxanthin showed positive results for male fertility. Over the course of three months, researchers tested 30 different men with a history of infertility and found improvements in fertility and sperm parameters (sperm count and motility). infection) in the group receiving high doses of astaxanthin. But because this was a relatively small study, more evidence is needed to support this claim.

Nano Astaxanthin is produced using modern Nano technology

Nanotechnology has overcome the weakness of astaxanthin’s poor absorption by reducing astaxanthin to a microscopic form with a size of 20-30 nm without altering its original chemical structure and biological nature. This results in products with high safety, outstanding efficiency, and rapid action. This ultra-small size and new-generation targeted packaging enable Nano Astaxanthin to be completely soluble in water, increasing bioavailability hundreds of times compared to its normal molecular size.

The process of formulating the Nano Astaxanthin microemulsion system by OIC NEW

The process of formulating the Nano Astaxanthin microemulsion by OIC NEW has been granted Utility Solution Patent No. 2897 by the Intellectual Property Office.

Nano Astaxanthin liquid material is superior thanks to:

• The raw material Astaxanthin from salmon skin has a purity of 98% and is imported from the US and EU, meeting international pharmacopoeia standards.
• The size of medicinal medicinal particles is extremely small, only 20-30 nm.
• Astaxanthin Nano particles are spherical, stable, and not destroyed by stomach acid.
• Microemulsion form completely dissolves in water, absorbing 99.9% into blood and cells.
• Exclusive PEG and PLA encapsulating membranes target the exact location of the injury.
• Nano Astaxanthin is hundreds of times more effective than regular Astaxanthin.
