5 out of 5 stars

After reading about Astaxanthin, I decided to try it. I am a 72 year old woman w/o much energy - asthma due to allergies, some osteoarthritis in my knees and other joints, but nothing much else. The only prescription medication I am on is montelukast. I take several herbal/vitamin supplements. About a month ago I started taking 2 12MG doses of Astaxanthin, one in the early morning and one at lunch. After about a month, I can tell a marked increase in my energy level. I have not noticed any interference with any other medication and no worsening of asthma symptoms or my chronic cough. I cannot tell that it has made a big difference in my arthritis but has given me energy to exercise more in the house and by taking walks in our winter weather. I will keep taking this at this dosage and am very pleased with it.

I experienced the same effect. I'm 77 yrs old and for me it worked overnight! I was quite amazed. I now take it daily and it really does still help with energy, not as much as it did in the beginning, but still it helps quite a bit. I'm glad you found it and wrote about it, so others in their 70's will know there is something that will help with energy, even at our advanced age.

It says to take 1 12mg capsule a day with meal with fat or Olive oil. It's a dark radish liquid inside. Are there any side effects? Is there any medications or Vitimins you should not take with astaxathin? I have AFib but I take Hawthorne. I also may have lung phlem and it has dropped off. I also have a form of skin cancer. Blessings to All:)

Hi Sue,

Its been years of taking astaxanthin and it is still working to help speed up my morning brisk walk, but I am using 24 mg/day of astaxanthin.

Since you have AFib and other health conditions it is best to get your doctor's approval and supervision to be as safe as possible.

If you are already on any type of blood thinner, you absolutely need to have your doctor involved as astaxanthin has anticlotting effects.
