Astaxanthin might just be one of the most underrated performance-enhancing nootropics.

With a rich portfolio of impressive science behind it, astaxanthin's benefits extend beyond cognitive health. It has been found to enhance muscle performance, increase endurance, and aid in recovery. Astaxanthin can protect cells from oxidative stress, improve mitochondrial function, and support the immune system. It is also beneficial for eye health, particularly for gamers and individuals who spend long hours in front of screens.

To better understand the therapeutic scope of astaxanthin, I had the pleasure of speaking with Carlo Alberto Muratore, from industry-leading astaxanthin manufacturer, AstaReal®. Carlo expertly guides us through the specialised manufacturing techniques that yield the highest quality astaxanthin in the world, and the significant investments AstaReal® have made exploring astaxanthin’s true potential through research.
