NOW Foods Astaxanthin, 4 mg, 60 Veggie Softgels

I used to use another Astaxanthin 4 mg but they quit carrying it. I have used this one by NOW for a long time and find it a great replacement. I don't think I will change.

This is a valuable staple in my nutritional supplements.

nice product

I am thoroughly delighted with these gel caps. I bought Astaxanthin because I had read up on it being the "master antioxidant" but I did not expect it to make my sight better and it is. I also believe it has made some difference with my skin but can't say for sure. However the vision improvement rates way up there. I watch other people my age losing theirs and mine is getting better all the time.

I've been taking Astaxanthin shortly after learning of its benefits years ago. I have taken the Swanson brand but and tried a Bio Astin 's Hawaiian brand, although they latter two brands are good, I have returned to reorder the Now Foods brand again. I like the fact that they use a olive oil, a veggie softgel and that it's gluten free.

This product worked better than expected. I noticed an improvement in my skin within 3-4 days. This suggests to me that other health benefits are occurring internally when I can see an externally noticeable difference. I think it has helped with my immune system as well. I take it with a krill oil supplement and try to take it after eating food with healthy fats and oils to improve the solubility and availability. Great product!

I had been reading so much about the tremendous benefits of Astaxanthin that I decided to order some. I notced that Swanson's website showed that their product was unavailable from the manufacturer. So I called Swanson to see if their product would be available shortly. One of the very congenial and helpful Swanson operators stated that she didn't think so; then she recommended this one from NOW Foods. She mentioned that it was only $2 more. This is the preferred 4 mg. dosage that I had been reading about, so I ordered a bottle. I have since reordered, because it is giving me exactly what I wanted: a powerful carotenoid free-radical-fighter antioxidant that is also very good for my eyes. Vision is so valuable that I do everything I can for my eyes. I feel that Astaxanthin is keeping me --- and my eyes --- young. Personally, I take 1 or 2 of these very nice, very small soft-gel capsules every morning. I definitely plan to keep Astaxanthin as a permanent part of my nutritional supplement program. I gladly recommend it.

Astaxanthin is touted to be a strong antioxidant for the body--aside from the eye health benefits it bodes. This is a small dark brown easy to swallow softgel; easy to take daily. I have yet to be able to "see" any results as it is an antioxidant after all, but Swanson is known for their 7-leaf guarantee and tradition of great products!

Have used this product and am happy I tried it, and would recommend it [This review was collected as part of a promotion.]

The product Astaxanthin suppose to be very good for the eyes. And it may be, but it didn't do a thing for my eyes. As a matter of fact I think my eyes got worse. The product was delivered in a timely manner and the packaging that the product was in was good.
