Review: Amazing, powerful Anti-oxidant that actually works - I have degenerative joint disease, something I was born with but didn't know I had until a few years ago when my orthopedic surgeon told me so. After looking at the x-ray for my hips, he said I can't believe you walked into my office. Anyway, years later after surgery on one hip (the other one still needs replacing), I can tell you for a fact that this four-milligram astaxanthin product actually WORKS! (emphasis added). I was so upset after wasting hundreds of dollars on ineffective products. After about 30 of these pills, along with 1,000 milligrams of the NOW brand Krill oil, I could actually FEEL the difference. None of the so-called "joint supplements" worked: Osteo-Bi-Flex, Flex-a-Min, Glucosamine, Chondroitin and MSM supplements were all just wasted money. What turned me on to astaxanthin is that it is 800 times more powerful, and about 1/10 the cost of, very expensive CO-Q10, and thousands of times more effective (6,000 times) than Vitamin C in its anti-oxidant properties--so much so, that I only need to take Celebrex once or twice a week instead of once or twice a day due to the debilitating pain I felt. It's good to know there is a truly effective product like NOW brand astaxanthin that is really doing its work against the damaging, and very painful, effects of free radicals. All of the other supplements simply do not compare to the effectiveness of this product, including a myriad of herbal supplements that really didn't do anything. Absolutely recommended if you have arthritis or some other form of inflammatory disease, provided your doctor agrees. On top of everything else, if the anti-inflammatory benefits were not enough, this product is many times stronger and more effective than a 20-mg supplement (which I still use) of Lutein, meaning, I have the added benefit of actually reversing my macular degeneration. I am literally seeing things ten times farther away than I was five years ago, before I knew about astaxanthin and Lutein, and things are crystal clear now instead of blurry. I am actually enjoying a hobby that I used to do when I was about 12, that is, painting. Now I can actually see the fine details that I paint, instead of a blurry canvas with no details. That's nothing short of a miracle for me. This product, Lutein (any 20-mg, but I like Jarrow and Nature's Bounty), Krill Oil (NOW 1,000 mg), Turmeric (NOW 500-mg), Sea Cucumber powder (Swanson's 500-mg) and a good daily vitamin (Centrum Silver) are among the products in my cabinet that I will never run out of. When I'm over 100, I'll testify to that effect. Of course, that won't be until 2061, but I will get back to you.
Review: Exelente - I’m very happy with this 4 mg astaxanthin supplement. The capsules are easy to swallow, and the quality is excellent. I appreciate the clean ingredients and the consistent freshness of the product. It has become a great addition to my daily wellness routine. I will definitely buy it again. Highly recommend!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I love this stuff...
*by R***R on August 12, 2017*

This stuff is awesome if you suffer from any sort of inflammation. It's also really good for your skin and eyes. I used to get inflammatory acne but taking this and Spectrum Essentials Fish Oil with Vitamin D, 1000 mg, 250 Softgels keeps it from flaring up. Whenever i quit taking them it inevitably flairs up. I don't know if it works for my joints due to the fact that i take other supplements but it stands to reason it would... There are other supplements that work for inflammation (turmeric is a good one--especially to eat!) but this one suits my needs and I like the fact that Astaxanathin is so cheap and easy to find (even the Walmart brand works fine though it only comes in a 30 day supply). Be forewarned though, this can affect your hormones if you're prone to hormonal imbalance. I am but have never noticed any effect except for less acne (this is why it suits my needs cause there are other supplements that can help like Prim Rose that DO affect my hormones).
