Antioxidants are naturally found in healthy, nutritious foods, especially orange-colored sea animals like salmon, crab, and lobster. But sometimes our diet doesn’t supply enough antioxidants to help support the body’s natural antioxidant defenses against everyday oxidative stress.*

Astaxanthin supplements, an antioxidant related to beta-carotene and lutein, can fill in the gaps and help maintain your body’s antioxidant activity.* Dr. Joseph Mercola chose to formulate an antioxidant supplement with organic astaxanthin for two very important reasons:

1. Astaxanthin can easily cross the blood-brain barrier and the blood-retinal barrier.*


2. Astaxanthin acts as an antioxidant and helps neutralize free radicals*

Your brain and eyes require extra nutrients but are easily affected by toxins and oxidative stress. Few nutrients are able to pass through these barriers, which makes astaxanthin stand out.*

And it’s not just limited to one area — it provides broad antioxidant support throughout the body.* Some antioxidants are better suited for certain areas of the body. For example, beta-carotene is often used for eye health, while CoQ10 is commonly associated with heart and brain health.

 One of the most popular supplements for immune support is vitamin C. Astaxanthin is also recognized as a potent antioxidant that helps support the body’s defense against oxidative stress.* Check out these highlights:

• provides potent antioxidant support*


• offers strong antioxidant activity compared with many common antioxidants*


• helps support antioxidant protection*


• provides antioxidant support alongside other carotenoids*


• offers antioxidant support for overall wellness*

Traditional astaxanthin supplements on the market are often synthetic. The natural astaxanthin in Dr. Mercola Organic Astaxanthin is taken from a microalgae grown in sterilized test tubes. To ensure its pure quality, it is not extracted from ponds or open sources of water. It is combined with organic olive oil for better absorption and to help promote your body’s antioxidant capacity.*
