Why is the softgel dark red?
That red is the astaxanthin itself. It is the pigment Haematococcus microalgae make, the same one that gives salmon its color. 12 mg of it in every softgel, and that is where the color comes from.
How do I take it, and when?
One softgel, once a day, with a meal. Astaxanthin dissolves in fat, so a breakfast with eggs, yogurt or buttered toast is the easy way. One bag is 30 days.
What is in each softgel?
12 mg of natural astaxanthin from Haematococcus pluvialis microalgae (Daily Value not established). One active ingredient. The full Supplement Facts panel is printed on the bag and shown in the photos here.
What does astaxanthin do?
It is an antioxidant that comes from food, mostly seafood, and from microalgae like this one. Taken every day it helps protect your cells from everyday oxidative stress and supports skin health and eye health.* Give it a couple of months of mornings, not one.
You know the feeling
“You look tired.” You hear it on days you slept just fine.
Hours on a screen, dry office air, not enough sleep, and the years doing what years do. Your skin and your eyes carry all of it. So you buy a better cream and better eye drops, and they do their job on the outside, where they can reach.
Underneath, where the day lands, you have not been doing anything. You know that, and you have been meaning to.
The morning with Better You
One red softgel with breakfast. Your skin and your eyes get looked after from the inside.*
Each softgel has 12 mg of natural astaxanthin, the red pigment that Haematococcus microalgae make, and the same one that gives salmon its color. It is an antioxidant. It helps protect your cells from everyday oxidative stress, and it supports skin health and eye health.* One ingredient, and the amount written on the front of the bag.
You take it with a meal, because astaxanthin dissolves in fat, and then you forget about it until tomorrow. Thirty softgels, thirty days, one bag.
What one softgel a day gives you
Four things people want from astaxanthin, and what this bag does about each one.
Supports eye health*
Your eyes do the screen, the car and the small print all day. Astaxanthin supports eye health as part of a daily routine, one softgel at breakfast.*
Antioxidant support for your cells*
Astaxanthin is an antioxidant: it helps protect your cells from the oxidative stress a normal day produces.* One job, done every day, with one softgel.
One ingredient, one number
12 mg of astaxanthin from Haematococcus microalgae, printed on the front of the bag and in the panel. What the bag says is what this page says, and it is the same in every bag.
What people say
Why they order a second bag
One softgel with my eggs and I am done
I spend ten hours a day on two screens and I had been meaning to do something for myself that was not another cream. This is one softgel with breakfast and I forget about it. No taste, nothing repeating on me. Second bag ordered.

Finally a bag that says the number
I compared four brands and most said 4 mg or hid it inside a blend. This one says 12 mg on the front and one a day. The softgel is dark red, which I did not expect, and it goes down with my coffee. Already reordered.
Mark D. · Boise, IDVerified buyer
Good, with one thing to know
The pouch is not my favorite, a bottle would stand up better in my cabinet, so I keep them in a jar now. Everything else is simple: one a day with breakfast, 12 mg on the front, no aftertaste. I take a couple of things, so I checked with a professional first. On bag two.
Megan C. · Sacramento, CAVerified buyer
My wife started it, I took one too
She bought it for her skin routine. I started taking one because it was a single softgel and no fuss, and now we each have a bag by the coffee maker. It goes down with the coffee and that is the end of it until tomorrow. We order two at a time now.

Two little capsules became one softgel
I was taking a 4 mg astaxanthin twice a day and still not getting to 12. One of these covers it and the number is right there on the label. I take it with my yogurt, which I was eating anyway. Reordered before the first bag ran out.
Rachel M. · Minneapolis, MNVerified buyer
Forty-six and finally consistent
I have quit every supplement I ever started, usually around week two. This one is a single red softgel with breakfast and a bag that lasts a month, so there is nothing to think about. Third bag, which is a record for me.

Before you buy
The questions people ask us
The ones we hear most, answered straight. The quick ones are up next to the price. Anything else, just reach out.
Do I have to take it with food? Does it matter what food?
With a meal, yes, and a little fat in the meal helps. Astaxanthin dissolves in fat, the way vitamins A, D and E do, so eggs, yogurt, avocado or buttered toast all work. Breakfast is the one most people pick, because it is the meal you sit down for anyway.
Where does the astaxanthin come from?
From Haematococcus pluvialis, a freshwater microalga that turns red when the water around it gets harsh. That red is astaxanthin. Ours is the natural kind from that microalga, 12 mg per softgel, as printed in the Supplement Facts panel.
Why is the softgel so dark red? Will it stain?
The color is the astaxanthin itself: 12 mg of a deep red pigment looks like that. Swallowed whole with your meal, it stains nothing. Chewing it is another story, so we would rather you did not.
I take medication. Can I take this?
If you take any medication, are pregnant or nursing, or have a medical condition, check with a professional first. Bring the Supplement Facts panel, it is printed on the bag and shown in the photos here.
How long does one bag last?
30 days. 30 softgels, one a day. The price per day is shown next to the price above.
Why 12 mg, when I see 4 mg everywhere?
Because one softgel with the whole amount is easier to keep up than three small ones, and because we want the number you take to be the number you read. 12 mg, one softgel, once a day, printed on the front.
Does it contain fish or shellfish? Is the softgel vegan?
The astaxanthin comes from a microalga, not from fish or krill. The softgel material, the other ingredients and any allergen are listed on the Supplement Facts panel on the bag, shown in the photos here. Read it before you order if any of that matters to you.
What if it is not for me?
