Algastin® is a supplement containing natural astaxanthin, arguably the most powerful antioxidant ever. Many scientific studies have shown positive effects not only on muscle mass growth, but also on the cardiovascular and immune systems, eyes, brain and skin. When it comes to natural sources of this underrated carotenoid, some of the most important include salmon, flamingo, lobster and other living organisms with typically pink to orange flesh.
Let's face it, there are a lot of similar supplements on the market that promise miracles. So let's take a look at what makes Algastin stand out above all others and how it affects our organism.
Natural astaxanthin reduces the risk of heart attack, cardiovascular diseases and keeps the heart system healthy. At the same time, there are also studies confirming its effect on lowering LDL cholesterol (the "bad" kind) and reducing oxidative stress markers.
The effect of astaxanthin on the immune system has also been the subject of several studies. These have found that regular use of this antioxidant increases the production of immunoglobulin, a deficiency of which could adversely affect the functioning of the immune system.
Although very surprising, the following study demonstrated the effect of astaxanthin on reducing complications related to eye strain by a full 46%.
There have even been observations made that have pointed to a positive effect of astaxanthin on brain functioning and also on slowing down the aging process. The results of the study also prove that this carotenoid can act as a preventative against dementia and even reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease.
Since astaxanthin has antioxidant properties, it can protect the skin from damage caused bydamage caused by UV rays while reducing the signs of aging. Thanks to this supplement, your skin will be soft, nourished, wrinkles will be reduced and the overall elasticity of your skin will also increase.
What most of you are probably most interested in comes last. This is because Astaxanthin can increase energy production in athletes or manual labourers, improving performance, stamina and strength.
Synthetic astaxanthin is artificially created in laboratories and the raw material is petrochemicals. The actual effects of this astaxanthin have never been tested on humans, nor has it been approved for human consumption. According to some scientists, natural astaxanthin is up to 50 times more potent than synthetic astaxanthin.
The recommended dosage of Algastin is to take one tablet per day. The ideal time to take it is in the morning with a meal. It is recommended to wash it down with a sufficient amount of water each time. The pack contains a total of 60 doses and therefore provides supplementation for 2 months.
