Skin protection.
\n<\/span><\/strong>Astaxanthin can be found in a multitude of skincare products due to its ability to protect skin against oxidation, block harmful UV rays, combat free radicals, and regenerate skin cells. Topical users of astaxanthin report increased skin moisture, elasticity, smoothness, and a noticeable decrease in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Astaxanthin may also increase skin circulation and is known to have anti-inflammatory properties. Astaxanthin can be found in anti-aging facial moisturizers and serums alongside other skin firming ingredients such as collagen.<\/span><\/p>\n

Other evidence suggests when taken orally, astaxanthin can have anti-aging properties. Research suggests astaxanthin supplements may actually be able to reverse oxidative damage to the skin. Oxidative damage results from exposure to the elements (sun, wind, pollution) and exposure to internal free radicals.<\/span><\/p>\n

Oxidative damage thins naturally occurring collagen in the skin, therefore reducing elasticity and causing wrinkles. In 2006, a study was conducted in which 49 healthy women with an average age of 47 were given 4 mg of astaxanthin per day or placebo. At the end of six weeks, over 50% of the subjects taking astaxanthin self-reported improvements in their skin, as did the dermatologists who assessed them.<\/span><\/p>\n

Astaxanthin supplements can be helpful for men\u2019s skin, too. In a double-blind, placebo-controlled study conducted over a six-week period, 36 male subjects demonstrated how 6 mg of astaxanthin a day could reduce the appearance of crow\u2019s feet, increase elasticity, boost the water content of the skin, and increase sebum oil levels at the cheek zone.
\nMuscle recovery. Although debated by researchers, astaxanthin is said to be beneficial for active individuals who partake in regular, rigorous exercise. Its anti-inflammatory properties are said to expedite recovery from muscle soreness and fatigue .<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
