What effect does astaxanthin have

Mar 30, 2021

Astaxanthin is considered to be the strongest antioxidant at present. From the perspective of women, there are several aspects:

1. UV radiation and skin aging

Ultraviolet radiation is an important reason for skin photoaging and skin cancer. Astaxanthin has been used as a potential light protective agent because of its strong antioxidant property, effectively removing free radicals which cause skin aging, protecting cell membrane and mitochondrial membrane from oxidative damage and preventing skin photoaging.

2. Enhance immunity

Astaxanthin has a strong activity of inducing cell division and plays an important role in immunoregulation.

3. Anti inflammatory and anti infection characteristics

Joint pain and arthritis are usually caused by oxidative damage caused by free radicals. The antioxidant properties of astaxanthin are helpful to inhibit free radicals and reduce the oxidative damage to joints.

4. Relieve exercise fatigue and enhance energy metabolism

Astaxanthin can also strengthen aerobic metabolism, increase muscle strength and muscle tolerance, quickly alleviate exercise fatigue, and reduce the delayed muscle pain after severe exercise.

5. Protective effects on the eyes and central nervous system

Astaxanthin can effectively prevent the oxidation of retina and the damage of sensitive cells through blood brain barrier and cell membrane, especially the effect of macular degeneration is more significant than lutein.

6. Prevention of cardiovascular disease

Astaxanthin can reduce the oxidation of apolipoprotein, and can be used to prevent atherosclerosis, coronary heart disease and ischemic brain injury.

7. Inhibition of diabetic nephropathy

Astaxanthin can damage basement membrane by protecting glomerular basement membrane and preventing free radicals produced by hyperglycemia; In addition, it can also resist the free radicals of renal tubular epithelial cells, protect the normal transport of glucose and phosphorus in renal tubular cells, thus preserving ATP and natk ATPase, and ensuring that renal blood flow is not affected

Summary: These are the analysis from the perspective of astaxanthin, but as for the absorption of human body, it needs a relatively long-term process to supplement astaxanthin and see the effect. From a health perspective, we should not rely on or superstition on a substance or nutrient to maintain the health and beauty of women. Good work and rest habits, healthy eating style, comfortable mood and so on are the source of women's sustainable beauty and health.
