Love how I feel, my eyesight has been improved, and my skin is glowing since I've been taking it!

Great quality. Works great highly recommend

We've only just begun using this product, so cannot write confidently about the effects on our health. However, I've used eye glasses since high school, and long hours working with sensitive equipment in a lab and pouring over journals' fine print on tablets and in our library daily over many years have taken their toll on my sight. Over the past five years my vision had gotten increasingly blurry, with minute but definite eye strain related pain enduring for longer and longer stretches every day, especially after waking up. My physician and my optometrist both tell me my eye health if fine, but the waning performance of my sight "should be expected" due to genetic, environmental (work), and age-related factors. Expecting another 30-40 years of work with progressively debilitating eye sight presented me a horrify prospect. Then I read a few peer reviewed papers on astaxanthin's potential efficacy in mitigating some sight related disorders, and though I loathe spending money on supplements (because there are so many that are nonetheless poorly tested, if at all; and because there is very little regulation of the industry or protection of consumers), I decided to give astaxanthin a shot, desperate for anything that would alleviate the mounting pain just behind my eyes. It was important to our family to choose a product that was, at least on face value (from what we could read about product contents), consistent with dosage and chemical identity with what published studies had researched. We were surprised to find most astaxanthin marketers apparently don't feel similarly about the products they offer. It was no less important to our family to support a business that does not package their supplements in gelatin, or use any other animal byproducts in their products. And, of course, we wanted a product that provided value for our investment dollar. We've been very happy that Sports Research has satisfied all these criteria. From what I've read, it should take three months of consistent use for our family to be able to detect significant effects from this product. Though this may be too early to report, after about a week of using this product I already feel significantly diminished pain in my eyes. Nothing else in my diet or daily regimen has changed, other than my also relying much less on Ibuprofen for pain relief. Whereas previously I woke with blurred vision and persistent percussion behind my eyes, now I wake without pain or distortion. And this has been consistent over the past three days. I'd be satisfied if this were the only effect of taking this astaxanthin supplement (at a single 12 mg capsule once per day). I'll update this review if any major changes arise going forward, but so far I'm very happy with the product. It's exceedingly rare, for me at least, that a supplement produces any discernible effects. Special thanks to Sports Research for its ethical, humane product encapsulation. Had they chosen gelatin or any other animal-derived component to accompany their astaxanthin, our family would have had to purchase another brand's product, and possibly miss out on the benefits already mentioned. Lastly, in the spirit of transparency, I disclose that Sports Research offered our family a small product incentive to write a review on Amazon, but they did not stipulate the review had to be positive. Also, our family has been approached before by companies offering us products in exchange for reviews, but we've never before felt comfortable writing a review for any incentive, as we heavily rely on honest, unbiased Amazon reviews to help us decide whether to invest in products we buy on Amazon and even elsewhere. I chose to write this review because I'm frankly very impressed so far with this product's price, ethical composition, and apparent effectiveness at significantly diminishing my eye strain--which is the reason I sought out astaxanthin in the first place.

There are so many potential benefits from Astaxanthin that you absolutely must read up on this supplement. My wife started taking this after being diagnosed with breast cancer. Astaxanthin is supposed to help slow the growth of breast and skin cancer cells. It also helps with heart disease, macular degeneration, and healthy skin. Astaxanthin is also beneficial in protecting your kidneys from the damage caused by diabetes. There are so many other up-sides to this supplement that I simply can’t name them all here. Sports Research brand of Astaxanthin is made from the real stuff – microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis. Each veggie softgel contains 12mg of Astaxanthin! Compare this to the other brands and you’ll find that the quality, quantity, and price are well represented in this product. My wife has been taking this supplement for about 3 months now and she’s saying that she’s starting to feel better. What that means, when I ask her, she can’t quite put her finger on – yet. She says she’s sleeping better and she thinks her skin and eyes are better than before. This may not be too scientific, but the best endorsement is always from a person who has nothing to gain from promoting a product or service. So far so good. A great product at a good price with top quality astaxanthin – 12mg of it per single veggie softgel dose! Photo: Sports Research Krill (L) & Sports Research Astaxanthin (R)

This stuff is really good! I was pleasantly surprised! I knew it would be good for my skin, and to my surprise, after a month of using it, the floaters in my eyes are almost gone!? It has also helped the eyes with dryness. It really is worth it. Easy to take as well.. teeny tiny pill. I’m hoping it helps with all the other age related stuff that gets us. I feel that this company makes a quality product. I am more apt to look at their brand now before others because it was such a surprise.

I’m almost through my first bottle. The first thing I noticed was my skin was clearer and brighter looking but I wouldn’t say tanner or glowy. I’ve started experiencing joint pains from my perimenopause. Hip pain and pain in the joints in my hands. I was checked for RA and luckily that’s not my issue. As of the past few days, I have started noticing a relief in my joints. I’m just gonna keep going and hope it continues to improve. I would recommend this brand and just have people give it a shot. As anything you have to be consistent. I think this does wonders for inflammation.

nice product

I bought a bottle about a month ago and have been taking it everyday and am almost out. Although it did make my face appear slightly tan, I didn't see much improvement in my facial wrinkles. I don't plan to buy it again.

I got excellent results. My weird afternoon slump disappeared in just 1day. I had tried many lifestyle changes and supplements. Continuing to use it.

2回目のリピートです。肌がより健康に感じます。ソフトジェルで飲みやすい

Excellent Results

飲んでますが、効いてるのかなぁ～。 こういうのは信じるしかないですねｗ

Really worked. You will feel more energetic and also boost in testosterone level. Definately going to buy it again.
