Astaxanthin: Natural vital substance
Astaxanthin is a carotenoid that occurs naturally in foods such as salmon or shrimp. Carotenoids are secondary plant compounds that give plants their typical colors. In addition to astaxanthin, this group of substances also includes lutein, zeaxanthin, β-carotene and lycopene.
For the Edubily product, astaxanthin is obtained from the microalga Haematococcus pluvialis – an alga known for its particularly high astaxanthin content. The powder contains 8 mg of astaxanthin per capsule, aligned with the maximum amount recommended in the EU.
Astaxanthin has been studied in science for many years and remains the subject of numerous research projects. Researchers are interested in the special chemical properties of this natural pigment as well as its role in biological systems. In research, astaxanthin is also described as a carotenoid characterized by a low tendency toward auto-oxidation, which is attributed to its special molecular structure.
Edubily Astaxanthin is produced in Iceland under sustainable conditions, using a high-quality branded raw material from Algalif. The capsules are vegan, contain no unnecessary additives and are dissolved in olive oil to make them easy to take.

Astaxanthin in nature and in your diet
The algal species Haematococcus pluvialis is the richest natural source of astaxanthin and produces it as its own protective substance against stressful conditions such as intense sunlight. In addition to this alga, astaxanthin is also biosynthesized by other microalgae, phytoplankton, yeasts and bacteria and accumulates through the food chain in zooplankton, crustaceans and ultimately in various marine animals. This is how lobsters, salmon, shrimp, flamingos and other animals higher up the food chain get their characteristic pink to reddish coloration.Sustainable origin from Iceland
Here, astaxanthin is obtained using the Icelandic branded raw material Algalif®. The unique, closed photobioreactor technology in Iceland provides optimal growth conditions for the algal cells, which are then stimulated to form astaxanthin through a multi-stage process (green phase, starvation phase, red phase).Edubily's Astaxanthin capsules
Edubily uses 8 mg of astaxanthin per capsule – in line with the EU guideline for food supplements. The raw material is regularly tested for heavy metals. The astaxanthin is dissolved in olive oil, contained in a vegan HPMC capsule shell and contains no additional fillers.References:
