Brief Introduction

Astaxanthin is a natural nutritional component, it can be found as a food supplement. The supplement is intended for human, animal, and aquaculture consumption.

Astaxanthin is a carotenoid. It belongs to a larger class of phytochemicals known as terpenes, which are built from five carbon precursors; isopentenyl diphosphate and dimethylallyl diphosphate . Astaxanthin is classified as a xanthophyll (originally derived from a word meaning “yellow leaves” since yellow plant leaf pigments were the first recognized of the xanthophyll family of carotenoids), but currently employed to describe carotenoid compounds that have oxygen-containing moities, hydroxyl or ketone , such as zeaxanthin and canthaxanthin. Indeed, astaxanthin is a metabolite of zeaxanthin and/or canthaxanthin, containing both hydroxyl and ketone functional groups. Like many carotenoids, astaxanthin is a colorful, lipid-soluble pigment. This colour is due to the extended chain of conjugated (alternating double and single) double bonds at the centre of the compound. This chain of conjugated double bonds is also responsible for the antioxidant function of astaxanthin (as well as other carotenoids) as it results in a region of decentralized electrons that can be donated to reduce a reactive oxidizing molecule.

If someone says their bee pollen is freeze dried, they are most likely an advertising firm and know very little about bee pollen. Freeze dried does not apply to bee pollen, it applies to Royal Jelly. They are merely copying what they heard and they think sounds good. Example; The term Pasteurization is used with milk but does not apply to beef.

The technical term for freeze dried is lyophilization. When you see someone use the term freeze dried with bee pollen, what they are doing is simply dehydrating the pollen.

Since no one can get a patient on honey bee products, some companies are very resourceful in coming up with reasons why their bee pollen is the best. Bee Pollen is a very fine like powder which the honey bee packs into a nugget using an enzyme the honey bee makes so they can carry back to the hive. The important question you should ask, how fresh is the pollen.

It’s amazing how people copy information and use it and it’s bogus. Here’s an example. “BEE POLLEN: you could experience an allergic reaction, especially if you’re allergic to bees or anything else” First, get this clear. You can have an allergic reaction to bee pollen so read instructions and test your body by starting with a small amount and building up slowly. Now that we have that out of the way. You have seen on YouTube people incorrectly say, ” if you are allergic to (bees) bee stings, you can be allergic to bee pollen. That is a myth. The best way to explain is; Being allergic to bee stings has nothing to do with consuming bee products. The best example I can think of is, people who are lactose intolerant, can’t drink milk but they can eat beef. People who are allergic to eating eggs can eat chicken. I am not a doctor, not even close as we are beekeepers. be cautious and monitor your health.
