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.

Why it Works for
F21 is an All Natural Sugar Blocker that helps limit your blood sugar absorption. It consists of different compounds found to have various health benefits, such as L-Arabinose, Coriolus Versicolor Polysacchride, Konjac-Mannan, Magnesium Stearate, Mint flavor: Menthol and Natural Colors. F21 not only does it help promote weight loss, (PSK) boosts your immune system response. In fact, for every gram of F21, you can block up to 20 grams of sugar (sucrose). The formula not only helps promote weight loss, it benefits the digestive system by allowing the blocked sucrose to support beneficial probiotic bacteria while the polysaccharide (PSK) boosts your immune system response.
But how does this formula break down the sugar in our bodies? There are basically three steps:
STEP 1
Sugar (sucrose) enters the body as a whole molecule.
STEP 2
The enzyme “sucrose” separates the sucrose molecule into two individual sugar molecules, Glucose and Fructose, which then enter the blood stream to be used. F21 inhibits sucrose from separating the sucrose molecule.
STEP 3
Instead of the sugars entering the blood stream, the whole sucrose molecule and F21 remain in the digestive tract and become prebiotics.
The main ingredient in F21 is L-Arabinose, which helps prevent sugar (sucrose) from being metabolized in the body. It also helps to satisfy any cravings for sugar. Another ingredient, Polysaccharide (PSK), is an extremely powerful antioxidant and immune-regulatory defender. It’s well researched anti-tumor, anti-infection and anti-inflammation effects help repair damaged cells and support the immune system.
Konjac-Mannan is a natural appetite suppressant. It acts as a trigger signaling your stomach to feel a little more satisfied and can help to reduce hunger cravings.
Prebiotics are indigestible fibers that are food for the probiotics. Both F21 and the whole sucrose molecule remain in the large intestine and become food for probiotics.
Menthol is an organic compound made synthetically or obtained from cornmint, peppermint or other mint oils. Menthol has local anesthetic and counterirritant qualities, and it is widely used to relieve minor throat irritation. It is known to be a powerfully medicinal compound linked to several potential health benefits. Peppermint oil, a natural source of menthol, has been investigated as a treatment for several diseases and conditions.
Magnesium stearate, also called octadecanoic acid, is manufactured from both animal and vegetable oils and this is the reason why some nutritional supplements specify that the magnesium stearate used is sourced from vegetables.
