I have a great interest in supplementation that has partly developed from my middle-age status (46) and partly from my weight lifting lifestyle. I have cabinets full of supplements. I research them well and I’m careful about what I put in my body. I am also a skeptic. After reading about astaxanthin I decided to give it a try due to its supposed muscle recovery and joint-protecting benefits. Eye protection and the overall antioxidant benefits were secondary, but couldn’t hurt, so why not? I incorporated one softgel every morning into my supplement routine and expected nothing.
Three weeks later I noticed that I suddenly was able to lift about 30% more than I was ever able to lift before in the gym. I can’t speak to the skin, eye, or vision benefits yet, but the benefit to my muscles is enough for me! Ordering again right now.

I’m your everyday kinda person in my late 30’s. I’ve been taking this for over an month now, it has helped so much with the pain I get in my neck. My eyes are the same though, I have notice it does change the color of your poop, lol! So heads up. I will be uses this as long as it’s works and the price is low.

I’ve had OA for years. Have tryed numerous joint supplements with not much relief from the pain. I didn’t like taking NAIDS every day either. So thought my next step would be injections. A friend who has suffered with RA for years, told me about this product and how well it works for her. So I thought I’d give it a try. Before I finished the first bottle I noticed a significant difference from my pain and inflammation. Amazon has the best price too!

This product is amazing! We use the 12mg option over the 4mg (less pills to take and better price point). We live in Arizona and have taken two trips to Mexico this year and have barely used sunscreen at all. There is a great little book by the physician who discovered this. Basically, before they get ready to swim upstream in rough conditions for 10 days, all the wild salmon stuff their bodies with a pink seaweed that’s chock full of astaxanthin. Even after this 10 day trek their bodies are still strong, muscular, and healthy. It what makes the fresh caught salmon in your grocer bright pink but the grown version look dull. So they made this astaxanthin available in a pill. It really works.

INCREDIBLE!!! FOR OVER 20 YEARS I HAVEN’T BEEN ABLE TO GO OUT IN THE SUN OR I’D GET AN AWFUL ITCHY RASH, BUT THANKS TO THIS PRODUCT I CAN GO INTO THE SUN NOW!!! I have no skin related rash ANYMORE!!
I’d read the views that said people could suntan or not sunburn as easily, but I didn’t think it applied to me.
I would get a terrible rash if my skin was exposed to sunlight; couldn’t drive my car without gloves on or my hands would start itching almost immediately.
WELL….I forgot my gloves one day and thought I’m just gonna hold my hands in the sun here and see if Astaxanthin does anything for me… I’ll just see how long it takes for that itch to start… well it never started!!!!!
This product is worth its weight in gold to me!!
I used to have to cover up in horribly hot weather whenever I went outside I don’t have to do that anymore!
I’ve been taking it for a while and I honestly can’t say when I noticed this benefit because I just got so used to covering up whenever I go outside. I actually went outside in short sleeves yesterday and my arms didn’t break out and start itching!! Oh my gosh, what a blessing this is to me!

Wow. This stuff is good. I find Astaxanthin very helpful for information in my shoulder and it has helped to my rotator cuff rehabilitation quite a bit. It also really does help prevent nasty sunburn if you are fair skinned like me. I am currently taking the vegan formula and actually like the smell and slight taste the veggie capsules give when they hit your tongue(dont chew rhem though unless you want a red colored mouth). Give it a shot and you won’t be disappointed!

I started taking this as an internal spf and boy does it ever work! I have been taking for 2 months at this point and over the weekend, I went to an outdoor event having forgotten sunscreen. I am VERY fair and normally burn very very easily but I spent 4 HOURS outside in direct sunlight, shoulders, face, and toes exposed and NO SUNBURN! Not even a little. Also, I am Minnesotan, so this was my first exposure since our very long winter ended. Color me impressed (and not pink!). ???

Astaxanthin is a potent antioxidant and free-radical scavenger. Today I learnt (the hard way) that it also strongly reduces insulin resistance in Type-2 diabetics, so that less insulin is required to maintain glycemic control. I took my regular dose of insulin, and one 12 mg pill at night and went to sleep; a few hours later I was hypoglycemic and needed to take glucose to recover. On an average, I now require about 30% less insulin, and I have only been taking Astaxanthin for a few days now.
Diabetics beware – this product can cause severe hypoglycemia! Carefully monitor your sugar levels while supplementing with Astaxanthin. On the bright side, this product appears to be pure and potent (as evidenced by the effects on glycemic control). It did not have any other adverse (or beneficial) effect on me – but it may be too early to tell. I have only taken a few doses so far.
I am removing one star from a 5-star review because this major effect of Astaxanthin on glycemic control is not mentioned as a warning on the product itself. I still highly recommend it.

I’ve been in excruciating pain for 19 years. Yes you read that right. I’ve had 2 knee replacements and multiple surgeries and nothing and I mean nothing has eased any of my pain. I don’t even know how I stumbled on this. I guess it’s a God wink. I take 1 a day with lunch. It took a good 2 weeks to kick in. I can say I have NO PAIN anywhere in my body. I went to my doctor on June 18,2019 and was taken off of 4 medications. I am also doing no carb no sugar diet to lower A1C and I feel like I’m 20 years younger. Everyone I see say that I’m glowing I wire my pain on my face. No hiding it. I’m 69 and I’ll never be without Bio Astin. Never!!!!! I also take 1 dropper of CBD OIL. I guess the combo may be the answer. I don’t know but I’m telling you to buy this and never stop taking it. Everyone has a different way something kicks in, if ever. Don’t give up. Thank You Lord Jesus. I’m not getting paid or received anything for this review. This is my own words.

I ordered these for my mother because a family member had recommended them to her for the arthritis in her knees. She was having to walk with a cane or walker around her house and she was icing her knees every day. Also, she walked with bent knees and she was a little hunched over. After taking the pills, her knees aren’t in pain and she no longer uses her cane to walk around her house and she is walking more in an up right position. These pills have made such a positive difference in her life!

I am a 64 year old bodybuilder. I love to work out, but had been finding some nagging aches and pains were starting to rear their ugly head. Most notable, my wrists were starting to hurt…with slight swelling. I was wearing wristbands, etc., to try to make up for it. I was also not getting a real good muscle pump….
About 3 weeks after beginning with one of these a day…..I feel MUCH better!!! Bear in mind, I have tried large amounts of fish oil, glucosamine chondroitin, msm, etc….nothing helped. I can only assume this stuff is doing the job!!!
Well worth giving it a try!!!

I have been taking BHA for 2 years. My ophthalmologist was shocked that my right eye lens corrective number went from 2.50 to 1.00 & my left eye went from 2.75 to 0.75. She said “no one 78 ever has their eyesight improve”. If it can improve my eyesight at my age, I can only hope it is doing as well with the rest of my body.

I cannot say enough how great this product is. I am thankful every day as I take this supplement. My skin is so youthful, I can see people being amazed how great my complexion looks. I used to have problems with inflammation all over my body, finally I am able to control it. Achy joints, dry red eyes, night sweats, more and more problems I had and I can say that definitely that for being able to control all these issues Astaxanthin has been crucial.
And not to mention how much my cognitive functions have improved, my pitch while singing is so precise now.

My sister-in-law is a personal trainer and sports health advocate and recommended Astaxanthin for workout recovery. I don’t have inflammation issues due to juicing and fasting and vegetarian diet but this is a great addition to my supplements. My sister is 62, tried it finally and exclaimed that after three days, “I woke up without stiff fingers.” She’s also very active in tennis and yoga.
