Product Details
- Provides antioxidant protection from digital device blue light for macular health
- Features complementary carotenoids astaxanthin and zeaxanthin
- Fights free radicals throughout the body
In Swanson Astaxanthin & Zeaxanthin, two premier antioxidant carotenoids team up for whole-body protection against the ravages of free radicals. Astaxanthin and zeaxanthin are antioxidants that provide valuable free radical protection for many vital organs and tissues.
Zeaxanthin is most concentrated in the macula of the eye, where it plays a crucial role in maintaining healthy central vision. Astaxanthin may promote healthy eye function and tear production, and has been studied for its potential to support visual acuity—the ability to see fine detail. Together these complementary carotenoids can help protect against digital device blue light and maintain vision health.
Astaxanthin is distributed in lipid molecules throughout the body, nourishing the brain, hydrating the skin and supporting the health of other organs with high fatty acid concentrations. The antioxidant properties of astaxanthin also benefit connective tissues throughout the body including joints and tendons.
