How VitaRx works
You’ll receive 30 customized daily vitamin packs containing a combination of vitamins you choose. There are 3 ways to create your packs:
What is astaxanthin?
Astaxanthin is a natural antioxidant and carotenoid found in marine organisms such as microalgae, salmon, and shrimp. Known for its vibrant red pigment, Astaxanthin is commonly associated with potential benefits such as eye health, and skin health, exercise support [1].
Why are anioxidants inportant?
Antioxidants are vital as they protect cells from damage by neutralizing free radicals, unstable molecules produced during normal cell activities, and exposure to environmental toxins. These radicals can harm proteins, cell membranes, and DNA, contributing to aging and diseases.
Can astaxanthin help protect your skin form harmful UV rays?
Yes, incorporating astaxanthin through supplements or diet can help shield your skin from ultraviolet (UV) damage. Astaxanthin tends to accumulate in the skin's epidermis and dermis layers, where it acts to block UV rays and mitigate existing skin damage.
Can you take astaxanthin every day?
Yes, it’s generally safe to take astaxanthin daily as part of a regular supplement routine. Astaxanthin is considered safe with research showing its potential benefits.
Benefits of daily use
Astaxanthin offers a variety of health benefits that are essential for your overall well-being.
Supports skin health
Astaxanthin has been linked to promoting skin health, potentially reducing the appearance of wrinkles and age spots when used topically and orally. The antioxidant properties contribute to maintaining skin moisture and overall well-being.
Boosts endurance and exercise
Some studies suggest astaxanthin may enhance endurance by reducing oxidative stress, potentially aiding in exercise performance.
Contributes to heart health
Research shows potential cardiovascular benefits of astaxanthin, including its effects on improved contractility and ventricle function.
Supports joint health
Astaxanthin may help alleviating joint pain and inflammation, particularly in conditions like arthritis. While results are mixed, some studies suggest potential benefits in reducing arthritis-related symptoms.
Focused on the science
We choose to provide products that are supported by a growing collection of credible research. From the vast number of studies about astaxanthin detailed below; here are a few we found most relevant:

All your astaxanthin questions answered
Our library of expert-authored articles covers just about every question you might have about vitamins, minerals and supplements — along with some you might not have known you had.
Store your astaxanthin supplements away from sunlight and humidity to keep them effective. When you order from VitaRx, you will receive your Astaxanthin in a dispenser box full of daily packs with all the other vitamins you need for the day. Keep it somewhere easily accessible so you remember to take them!
While there's no direct evidence suggesting that astaxanthin directly influences sleep, it has antioxidants that might reduce stress and inflammation in your body, which could lead to better sleep. It could also help with exercise endurance and reduce fatigue, indirectly helping with a regular sleep schedule.
Yes, astaxanthin can generally be taken on an empty stomach without causing serious issues. Its fat-soluble nature lets you absorb it with or without food. However, some people may experience mild digestive discomfort like diarrhea, especially when taking high doses, so it's better to start with lower doses if taking it on an empty stomach.
Yes, astaxanthin is safe for vegetarians. Most astaxanthin supplements come from microalgae, which is a plant-based source. This means it's good for people who follow plant-based diets. These supplements let vegetarians get the possible health benefits of astaxanthin without going against their diet. When picking a supplement, consider looking at the label to make sure it’s from a vegetarian source.
While astaxanthin isn’t a direct weight loss supplement, some studies suggest it may have potential benefits related to exercise performance and using fat as energy. However, there isn’t enough proof from studies on people yet, so more research is needed. To take care of your weight, eating well, exercising regularly, and talking to healthcare experts for personalized advice are important.
Deciding when to take astaxanthin depends on what works for you. Some like it in the morning for energy, while others prefer it at night with other supplements. There's no strict rule, so try both and see what suits you. Always follow the recommended dosage on the label or ask a healthcare professional for advice.

Do not buy from this company it wraps you into a monthly subscription without asking or asking for an email so it is impossible to log on and cancel your account while your card continues to be charged.
