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.

Function:

1.Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant and may protect against oxidative damage to body tissues.

2.Astaxanthin can improve the immune response by increasing the number of antibody producing cells.

3.Astaxanthin is a potential candidate to treat neurodegenerative disease such as Alzhimer and Parkinson diease.

4.Astaxanthin dan reduce UVA-light damage to skin such as sunburn, inflammation, ageing and skin cancer.

Application

1.When applied in pharmaceutical field, astaxanthin powder has the good function of antineoplastic;

2.When applied in health food field, astaxanthin powder is used as food additives for pigment and health care;

3.When applied in cosmetic field, astaxanthin powder has the good function of antioxidant and anti-aging;

4.When applied in animal feeds field, astaxanthin powder is used as animal feed additive to impart coloration, including farm-raised salmon and egg yolks.

DESCRIPTION: An independent review of the effects of açaí berries was recently published, including studies on immune function, arthritis, and metabolic parameters. Here are the older açaí videos I referenced: Antioxidant Content of 300 Foods (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/antioxidant-content-of-300-foods-2/) and Superfood Bargains (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/superfood-bargains-2/). Indian gooseberries may also help control blood sugars (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/amla-versus-diabetes/) and rose hips may also help with arthritis (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/dietary-osteoarthritis-treatment/). Plant-based diets in general may help arthritis (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/diet-rheumatoid-arthritis/) and metabolic parameters (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/metabolic-syndrome-and-plant-based-diets/). I also have another video on pomegranate juice: https://nutritionfacts.org/video/is-pomegranate-juice-that-wonderful/ And what’s true of pomegranate juice is true of other juices (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/best-fruit-juice/) with one exception (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/the-fruit-whose-juice-is-healthier/).

Even if supplements contain what they, say they may not be useful (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/dietary-supplement-snake-oil/) and sometimes it’s what’s added rather than what’s missing that is the problem (https://nutritionfacts.org/video/some-ayurvedic-medicine-worse-than-lead-paint-exposure/).

Have a question for Dr. Greger about this video? Leave it in the comment section at https://nutritionfacts.org/video/clinical-studies-on-acai-berries/ and he’ll try to answer it!
