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.

I wanted to quickly review the top 10 most protein dense plant based foods. This data is obtained from the USDA database. These are listed in grams of protein per 100g of food product.

Soy protein isolate: 80.69
Dried seaweed: 57.57
Tofu, dried frozen: 47.94
Soybeans, dry roasted: 39.58
Lupins beans, raw: 36.17
Pumpkin seeds, dried: 30.23
Winged beans, raw: 29.65
Seeds, watermelon: 28.33
Peanuts, salted and roasted: 28.03
Fava beans: 26.12

Protein is very important, it is composed of basic building blocks called amino acids
Hypertrophy is an increase in size of skeletal muscle cells and this growth is dependent on the availability of excess protein and amino acids
It is very difficult to consume toxic levels of protein, so don’t worry too much about it
If you decrease your total calories or carbohydrates, your body will be forced to maintain a blood glucose through other means, including breaking down skeletal muscle.
You can minimize this breakdown by increasing your total protein intake.

Protein metabolism is complicated but important! Proteins contain amino acids and may be referred to as amino acid chain, branched chain amino acids, peptide, and polypeptides. Sources of protein include whey protein, brown rice, eggs and egg white, protein bars, protein shakes, milk, and many more. You may also hear of c reactive protein, creatine, casein and those are discussed elsewhere. You should understand protein synthesis, protein break down, proteolysis, catabolism versus anabolism, protein building, fasting, fed, starvation, building muscle, skeletal muscle, macronutrients or macromolecules, overall nutrition, and metabolism.

You should know maximize your knowledge about these amazing fruits, vegetables, high fiber foods, super foods, whole grains, legumes, nuts and seeds, spices and herbs so you can eat and live healthier. These are generally the healthiest sources of calories, carbs, fats and cholesterol, carbs, protein and amino acids. One should also consider other benefits to beauty and health and to other chronic conditions they may help treat, care or cure. These foods are natural minerals and vitamins that are good for your health, whether a woman or a man. Eat these foods and add them to your own home remedies and stick around the channel for other health and fitness tips.
