During an investigation in the 19th century, French scientists discovered that there was a small red bug in Bras d'Or Lake in Canada. This kind of bug lived in the extinct Bras d'Or Lake. What magical power makes the small bugs survive under such harsh conditions has aroused great interest among scientists. They then conducted in-depth research on this small bug and found a natural antioxidant substance that the human body cannot synthesize by itself-astaxanthin. It is this magical astaxanthin substance that protects this little bug to survive under such harsh conditions. Scientists then conducted further research on marine life and found that astaxanthin exists on the body surface of shrimp, crab, salmon and other organisms. Their body surface will appear beautiful orange or red.
These substances are natural astaxanthin
1. Salmon faces the waves and needs to go upstream and swim to the source of the stream with an altitude difference of hundreds of meters to lay eggs. What kind of physical strength and endurance are needed? Among the fish in nature, there is no fish whose physical strength and endurance can compare with it. Studies have confirmed that salmon contains 5mg of astaxanthin per kilogram of muscle, which is the root of salmon not afraid of fatigue and daring to go upstream.
2. The small Husky sled dog has the same physical strength as a warhorse and can pull the Husky sled for hundreds of kilometers without feeling tired. The main reason is that the main diet of the sled dog is salmon, which is the only thing that eats fish and does not eat bones.
3. Why can crimson crayfish survive in the filthy silt, live healthily, and multiply? And the pale red prawns are not easy to survive even in clear water? The redder the color of the shrimp, the higher the astaxanthin content of the body, and the stronger its ability to resist the harsh external environment. Crayfish is not only delicious on people's tables, but also a food source for us to supplement astaxanthin.
4. Most Japanese people often have shrimps, crabs, various shellfish, salmon, etc. in their diets. They unconsciously supplement natural astaxanthin. With decades of continuous antioxidant action, Japanese people live a long and healthy life, So that Japan has become one of the longest-lived peoples in the world. In recent years, natural astaxanthin has been the most favored in the field of domestic health care in Japan.
Finally, scientists discovered that the best source of astaxanthin is Haematococcus pluvialis. Haematococcus pluvialis, known as "healthy soft gold", is an ancient microalga. The astaxanthin content of this haematococcus is 1.5%~5%, which is considered to be the highest natural source of astaxanthin.
As one of the most powerful antioxidants in the world, astaxanthin is widely used in medicines, health products, foods, and cosmetics. It has more than 30 patents worldwide for chronic diseases such as three highs, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular, bone joints, gastrointestinal, eye vision, prostate, endocrine, immunity and so on. It is also included in the National Pharmacopoeia by dozens of countries around the world.
The advent of natural astaxanthin also brings health and wellness into a new field!
