Astaxanthin

Astaxanthin Is a powerhouse of an antioxidant with numerous benefits. It may improve skin elasticity, reduce wrinkles, and protect against sun damage.It may improve blood flow to the eyes, potentially enhancing vision and protecting against age-related macular degeneration.Astaxanthin supports the brain, heart, and immune system and may reduce bone loss and improve bone mineral density.As a senior over 65, all of these potential benefits are very important. I’ve taken Astaxanthin off and on for many years and I do believe it makes a difference.This brand checks all the boxes- it’s made in the USA in a GMP facility and batch tested for quality, purity and potency.

This supplement contains astaxanthin in a dosage of 6mg. I have taken anywhere from 4-8mg in the past and find this an average dose of this potent antioxidant. From my research, astaxanthin has potential benefits for brain, skin, and eye health. If it can improve my wrinkles and eyesight or at least preserve it, I will be happy to take astaxanthin.I appreciate that this brand uses whole algae rather than an extract. I also like that this brand has been around a long time. This product is made in the USA in a GMP certified FDA approved facility. The bottle doesn’t have a childproof lid but does come well sealed with a freshness date of 2/27. So far, it works well for me at one capsule a day, although directions state it can be taken up to 3 times a day. Recommended.

Excellent quality astaxanthin. I am finally half-way through the bottle, and I can say that I have noticed a better sense of well-being and extra energy. No side-effects! This product lives up to its name of AstaPure because, in addition to the main ingredient, there are only 3 other components: cellulose, magnesium stearate, and the capsule body itself, made of cellulose.The small number of ingredients is what probably accounts for the small size of the capsules. This also makes them easy to swallow (see photo).

I have heard that astaxanthin has many health benefits. When I read in the description that it was beneficial for eye and skin health, as well as brain and cardiovascular fitness, I definitely wanted to try it. This product is made from “full-spectrum microalgae”, according to the label, and the capsules are a dark red color. The dosage is only one capsule per day, so the bottle will last 90 days. It is made in the USA in an FDA registered facility. The price seems reasonable for this type of product.

I think it’s helping or working, maybe I need to take it twice a day.

I also just started taking the Collagen, somehow it doesn’t mix well with juice! It clumps up or form clumps.

Helps in gut digestion.

I use this every day. It is a great antioxidant and it keeps my skin clear and is anti-aging. It’s also great for your heart.

First, I am a big fan of this company and their quality. This is a great product for skin, eyes and general antioxidants. I find this brand to be higher quality than others I have tried. You get a decent amount in the bottle too.

I'm definitely a fan of Wellness Resources, as I've used supplements from them in the past and present and been very pleased with them, everything I've used has seemed to be very high quality. I am likewise very happy with this astaxanthin supplement, and while it's not something that I'm feeling any immediate change in my day to day from, I do like to think that its antioxidant properties are working behind the scenes to improve my overall health and wellness. The capsules are a deep red which I expect from this ingredient, and they're of a size that's very easy for me to swallow, I notice no taste or smell.

I’ve been looking for a good antioxidant supplement to add to my routine, and Wellness Resources Astaxanthin caught my eye because it’s sourced from wholefood microalgae, which feels more natural than synthetic versions. After taking it daily for a couple weeks, I feel like my skin looks a bit brighter and my energy is steadier, especially on days I’m outdoors or exposed to the sun. I haven’t had any side effects, and the capsules are easy to swallow without any aftertaste. It seems to be a premium quality product and the price is fair too.It’s hard to say how much is placebo and how much is real, but knowing it’s a high potency, whole algae source gives me peace of mind that I’m getting quality ingredients. If you’re after antioxidant support and want something that’s more natural, this supplement is worth a look.

I’ve just started using this astaxanthin supplement, so I haven’t noticed any effects yet, but I’m impressed with the quality. The capsules are easy to swallow, and I love that it’s made from wholefood microalgae (Haematococcus pluvialis) with a high-potency Astapure formula. The 90-capsule supply is very convenient, and I feel good about using a clean, whole-algae product. Excited to see the benefits over time!

This is a straightforward astaxanthin supplement. It’s a single supplement with no additional vitamins or herbals, and that is exactly what I prefer. The dark red capsules are easily swallowed. My tummy tolerates astaxanthin without issues, and I don’t experience any adverse side effects. I’m unaware of a recommended daily allowance for astaxanthin, so I can’t comment about the dosage. I also don’t know of any proof that astaxanthin is beneficial for eyesight. But it is chemically related to zeaxanthin, which is included in supplements for individuals with macular degeneration. I’m not expecting this to improve my vision. The long term goal is to hopefully prevent declining vision from retinal disease. I received the product in early August 2025. The date on the label, which I assume is the expiration or “best by” date, is Feb 2027. Although I don’t see it on the label, this Amazon page tells us that the product is manufactured in the USA.

Wellness Resources is a brand that I have come to trust, after using both their D-Limonene (it's a lifesaver if you deal with indigestion) and their Quercetin/Luteolin complex. Both seemed high quality and included dosages backed up by research studies.This Astaxanthin is no different - based on my research, 4-8mg per day is the dosage range with the most recommendations for daily consumption, and this supplement is right in that sweet spot at 6mg per capsule. The price point (currently $29.99 for a 90-day supply, with a 25% off coupon possible as well) is also competitive for Astaxanthin from a reputable company.As most of the benefits of supplementing Astaxanthin are long-term - things like skin and bone health - it's too soon for me to say whether I will see any results. But the research is certainly intriguing, and I'm happy to have a good source to give it a try.

This seems to be a good quality Astaxanthin so far.- Capsules are easy to swallow- No odd aftertaste or ill effects- Price/Value is good- Label has GMP stamp and claims 3rd party lab tested (however I haven't seen the COA yet)I haven't had any problem taking these, but I'm only giving 4 stars for now until I have a chance to view a COA from the company for this product. If/when I receive that, I'll revise my review accordingly.

I use supplements to help close the gap between modern nutrition levels in our food and the levels that were there when I was young. But, in my opinion, the supplement industry has both some of the highest integrity companies, and some of the lowest. So I try and give a detailed enough review to help you know the company and product better so you can determine for yourself whether or not you want to try this one out.This bottle comes about 2/3 full.Unfortunately, Amazon put their sticker right on the bottle's label so I can't read all the information there.If used as directed it will last 1-3 months (one capsule 1-3 times per day).The expiration date on mine (THANK YOU for not printing it on the bottom of the bottle!) is Feb 2027.There is a light scent and taste to the capsules, and they are easy to swallow with water.I like my supplements to say organic, non-GMO, GMP-certified, 3rd-party tested, and made in the USA. This says none of those.I look into the supplement companies I use because I've come across so many questionable ones. The bottle has their phone number, and the product page says family-owned since 1985. Their wellnessresources site is functional and informative. I like when a company doesn't just put generic statements about quality and health, but (like this one) includes specific details about who they are and what practices they follow.I seem to take longer than most to see results when starting a new supplement, but I like the main ingredient - just not the magnesium stearate that many companies say they need to use, while the manufacturers of the highest quality supplements that I am aware of refuse to.Thank you for reading, I hope it was helpful.

I've been taking Wellness Resources Astaxanthin 6mg for three weeks, one capsule daily with breakfast. As someone who regularly exercises outdoors and is concerned about oxidative stress, I appreciate the whole algae formula versus extracts. The capsules are easy to swallow and don't cause any digestive issues. I've noticed improved muscle recovery after intense workouts and less eye strain during long computer sessions. The clean ingredient profile without fillers is impressive - just pure AstaPure astaxanthin from Haematococcus pluvialis. While it's too early for dramatic skin benefits, the energy and recovery improvements make this a worthwhile addition to my supplement routine.

Great stuff! Looking forward to seeing how this can help make my skin a little smoother and fresher. Since 1985? That tells me a lot and I feel safe taking these. I have always been a huge fan of algae supplements, for their unique qualities. Definitely more energy, and I would say these are a good price based on the history of the company. Very impressed!

I have been taking this daily since it arrived. Honestly, I can't say whether I feel any better than I did before starting it. I definitely have not had any negative side effects, and the supplement is not advertised as havng dramatic physical effects. It is supposed to have anti-oxidant properties which are more of a long-term health maintenance benefit. It is also known for its anti-inflammatory action. I do have a damaged joint in my right foot, and it has been slow to heal. I am taking this extract in hopes of speeding recovery. Since I am not able to conduct a scientific study of the benefits of Astaxanthin, I can only state my individual experience, which has been that it may be helping, doesn't seem to be hurting, and it may be something that can help you. It has no unpleasant odor or taste, which is a nice quality in any supplement.

Great supplement with noticeable benefits. I like that it's a whole algae powder rather than an extract (more peripheral nutrients). Meaningful dosage for a supplement this potent. I recommend this both for cardiovascular function and overall wellbeing.

The Wellness Resources Astaxanthin capsules are compact and convenient, each containing 6 mg of pure astaxanthin derived from whole‑cell algae. The capsule itself is made of cellulose, with only a minimal excipient—magnesium stearate—to aid flow during manufacturing. The bottle is a standard 90‑cap jar, sealed with a clear label that lists the source algae, the exact dosage, and a manufacturing date. The label also notes that the product is produced in a GMP‑certified, FDA‑approved U.S. facility, giving the formulation an assurance of quality and consistency.In routine use, the capsules are very easy to swallow; their small size requires only a single gulp of water, and they do not leave any aftertaste or odor. The daily intake fits neatly into a morning or evening routine without causing any digestive discomfort. Over several weeks of regular consumption, there is a noticeable steadiness in energy levels—particularly during extended periods of outdoor activity or screen exposure—suggesting that the antioxidant support may help mitigate fatigue. Additionally, the skin’s appearance appears slightly brighter and more hydrated, and any mild eye strain after prolonged computer use seems less pronounced, although these changes are subtle and gradual.Overall, the product delivers on its promise of high‑purity astaxanthin with a clean ingredient profile. The 6‑mg dose aligns with common scientific recommendations for antioxidant efficacy, and the price point of roughly $30 for a 90‑day supply is competitive for a premium, whole‑algae supplement. While the benefits manifest slowly and are primarily long‑term—supporting cellular health, skin resilience, and joint comfort—the combination of quality manufacturing, minimal additives, and user‑friendly packaging makes this astaxanthin capsule a solid addition to a daily wellness regimen.
