Well made, easy to take small softgel Everything is clearly labeled and described. Definitely a high quality source and minimal other ingredients to make this convenient to use and to protect the super nutrient content. I am a user of this natural ingredient already and this quality matches what I am accustomed to even when I swapped to this brand to try. Size of gel capsule is not as small as tiny vit A or small D type ones but still smaller and glides well to swallow. The astaxanthin is well protected as the layer seems thick, but otherwise the shell of the gel cap is similar to many supplements (a standard type). For me astaxanthin is a wonderful supplement overall as I heavily monitor my health with devices and find once I take astaxanthin consistently over a few weeks, my general health "markers" I look watch generally shifts a little into the range I am trying to hit (per recommendations from my medical practitioners). I swapped this brand for about 1 week and it was as effective as another organic item and a back up natural item I have been taking at the same doses.I have seen this brand's products before and notice the higher quality ingredients on label. So the price may be slightly higher but it seems very fair and reflective of what they strive to guarantee.

Very potent effects. Injury recovery verses erection quality. This is one of the most potent and powerful supplements I have ever encountered. I took this supplement for approximately 2 months. During that time I noticed several positive and negative effects;To begin I am a 28 year old man. In my experience this supplement will alter skin complexion and tone to be warmer and also reduce wrinkles somewhat. The main reason I began exploring Astaxanithin was to reduce inflammation and pain in my back that resulted from a torn rhomboid muscle and degradation of the underlying bursa beneath the shoulder blade. Astaxanthin is incredibly effective with soft tissue recovery and injury. During the course of use I rapidly felt my pain and weakness go into remission, further I began to gain muscle volume and size across my body. Overtime i felt myself becoming very aggressive socially - not in a completely negative way. A final positive; my hair began growing more thickly.Unfortunately I began to develop difficulty attaining and sustaining an erection and also began feeling tenderness in my pectoral muscles and nipples. these two things were enough to make me discontinue use. It has been over a year since I used the product and I feel I have completely recovered from the negative effects of the Astaxanthin. Further I feel that I have retained some degree of resistance to inflammation. My original injury is vastly more manageable. I feel this is a quality supplement but it is essential to understand it is not to be used trivially. It is absolutely effective and potent but like many substances it is a double edged sword. Sports Research has yet to lead me astray. Please be careful - particularly if you are a young man like myself. Young women may have more flexibility to the hormonal effects but that is just speculation on my part im not a doctor.

Astaxanthin... Where Have You Been All My Life? My mom, husband, and I have been taking this for 3 weeks now. We all felt noticeable difference after just one week of use. Eye strain decreased. Dry eyes significantly decreased.My husband had lasik a couple of years ago that left him with severely dry eyes. Since then, he has to constantly put in lubricating drops, and routinely get his eye drains plugged, and his tear ducts expressed. The doctor told him to increase his Omega-3 intake. He does all this consistently without much relief. And all this is exacerbated by his desk job where he is in front of multiple computer screens all day long.My mom just happened to hear about Astaxanthin on a TV show and thought of us because both my husband and I had lasik (though I don't have dry eye problems but I also work in front of a computer). She told us to try it. We were skeptical but after just one week, my husband came to me and said "Did you notice that I barely have to use eye drops now?" I said "Wow. My eyes don't feel as tired after a full day's work!" We asked my mom and she says her eyes feel better too! She wears glasses all day and just felt her eyes were feeling old, tired, and heavy. But not any more.I've never really felt such noticeable and immediate change/improvement after taking a dietary supplement. I usually take my vitamins with a leap of faith. But not this. We are sold. We quickly ordered another 2 bottles and put this product on Subscribe N Save so that we will never run out.The Sport Research brand seems to be good and clean. I take several of their other products (turmeric curcumin and grass-fed collagen peptides) and like them as well. I would recommend both Astaxanthin and the Sport Research brand.

Awesome Product will order again Absolutely love this product 12mg is a clinical dose so I start by taking it for a week then cut back to every other day..I’ve found if I don’t cycle off of it I can get mucous like build up in my nose.. but it’s helped my skin clear up and my joints don’t creak as much after a month!
