It is the same compound responsible for the pink colour of salmon, trout & shrimp. Asta SUN contains Astaxanthin produced from the red microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis to protect itself from UV damage when exposed to intense sunlight.

In addition, Astaxanthin helps the body neutralise the damaging free radicals produced by UV radiation which can cause premature ageing & skin cancer.
