I knew about krill supplements supposedly housing some of the most effective antioxidants, so found this stuff recently. I haven’t tested the sun protection out yet although I have noticed some dull pain I have vanish since taking.

I can’t believe how much my eyesight has improved!! Also my skin is much smoother and some of the pre-cancer lesions have disappeared . This also gives me more energy. I started with one 4 mg pill a day, and after I finished the bottle I went to two 4 mg pills a day which I am still on. I plan to eventually take the 12 mg pill a day to reap the best results.

My husband is a vegetarian and I have been researching compatible supplements for his joints, eyes and cardiovascular health. He is often a skeptic, which is great for testing products. After complaining of joint pain (Ongoing for last 10 years) I asked him to try this product. We have tried many different supplements, in the past. Beyond the three week mark, he was not certain whether the product was affecting change, as something definitely shifted, he noticed a remarkable difference in comfort level and joint fluidity. I believe it’s a combination of his stretching routine, careful eating and this product. The only recent difference in his life, that I noticed, was this product. He’s convinced he should continue taking.

I use these for joint support and to get glowing skin. I plan to start cardio workouts again and am hoping it helps with exercise recovery. This product came highly recommended by a family friend with zero joint pain and nice skin. I’ve ordered these before from Amazon. I received my second round today in the mail (5/28/20) and decided to share a review. As my pictures show, they arrive safe with a plastic seal. My shipment was late this time, but that didn’t happen before, so perhaps it’s due to Covid19 delays.
Pros
Small/ Easy to Swallow
Odorless
No strange aftertaste
Cons
Confusion about daily dosing
Takes time for results
There has definitely been an improvement in the tone of my skin. People close to me noticed a difference but it took 6-8 weeks for sure. Joint-wise I felt better after a while, but not what I’m hoping for. This time, I’m going to take 3 gel caps daily and see if there is a difference. I couldn’t rate it for sun protection because I’ve only taken them in the late winter/early spring.
Note:
Read the directions carefully. The gel caps are four mg each, allowing for a 4mg/8mg/or 12mg daily dosage. My first round I took one gel cap daily for at least 30 days: which is only 4mg. I did this to test my sensitivity and to “stretch it.” However, according to the supplemental facts, a serving size is (3) three gal caps. Directions suggest “one to three gel caps daily,” but anything less than the 3 gel caps won’t provide the maximum 12 mg of Astaxanthin you probably desire. There is an option to buy the 12 mg gel caps as wellZ Also, be sure to take with a meal that contains fat as directed.
Overall, it’s a great product that I feel is worth a try. My (non-medical) advice is to start with the max dose and give it 2-6 weeks to see/feel the results you desire.If it doesn’t work out, I don’t believe money is wasted because I do believe the benefits are real and this brand/seller are legit.

Protects from the sun. Do your own research. It is also helping with fading dark spots on my face.

I honestly missed the “sun protection”part in the description, but I have experienced it! We spent 7 hours at a lake. Everyone was burned pretty bad, even our Islander friends, and I walked away without incident.
I’m not as young as I once was and it had helped reduce a lot of pains so exercise feels good again.

Don’t take this too many days in a row. Take it once in a while for example when you need sunblock the next day. For sunblock it works wonders. But there are side effects. My arm grew this red dot and grew bigger and bigger for a month until I stopped taking bioastin. Then it disappeared. I also got bloody noses that could not stop bleeding. I usually never have a nosebleed before I took these. I also seem to have mind clarity problems while taking these but I’m not sure.

I’ve been taking BioAstin for about a month now. At the two week point I began to see a difference in my skin. That has only become better! I now receive many compliments on how good my facial skin looks…something that has never happened before. If the external improvement is so visible, I can only imagine the internal improvement. I’m looking forward to seeing the long-term benefits of BioAstin!
Life & DIY –
Whenever I take this supplement, I feel better overall. I have chronic fatigue issues and thyroid problems, as well as an autoimmune disorder. I only have one concern about this supplement, and I hope if anyone else has had this experience they will comment underneath mine to let me know. It could be a total coincidence, or could be due to a different health issue I am unaware of, but since starting this, I have lost a good deal of weight for my previous size. I haven’t lost a single pound since my thyroid problems began or got serious. Like I said, could be a coincidence but since I started on this, I lost over 10 lbs. I am getting concerned as I am small to begin with. As long as it isn’t due to a different health issue, a lot of people would find it as a major benefit. I looked it up briefly and online there have been studies involving mice who ate high fat foods and lost a lot of weight on this supplement. So, maybe that’s it. Anyone else have this experience?
