How should I take astaxanthin?
The recommended daily dose is 2 capsules (= 8 mg astaxanthin). Take them with a meal that contains some fat so the fat-soluble carotenoid is absorbed optimally. You can swallow both capsules together in the morning, or split them between two meals if you have a sensitive stomach.
An amber glass bottle contains 80 capsules; at the stated dosage this lasts 40 days. To build up antioxidant protection, we recommend a course of at least 4 – 6 weeks; many users take astaxanthin long term.
Store the bottle in a cool, dry place away from light. Supplements do not replace a balanced diet; if you are pregnant, nursing, or have chronic conditions, consult a healthcare professional in advance.
