The science, simply put
What's behind everyday oxidative stress?
Your body produces free radicals every day. It's a normal part of turning food and oxygen into energy.
Everyday life can add to that load:
- Your environment: sun exposure, air pollution and cigarette smoke.
- Your lifestyle: stress, short nights and meals that don't always include enough fruit and vegetables.
When free radicals outnumber the antioxidants available to deal with them, it's called oxidative stress. Antioxidants from your diet help keep that balance in check.
Good habits do the heavy lifting
No supplement replaces the basics. Most antioxidants come from a varied diet, and your body has its own natural defences too.
- Eat the rainbow: colourful fruit and vegetables bring a wide range of naturally occurring antioxidants.
- Move, rest and recover: regular activity and good sleep support your overall wellbeing.
- Fill the gaps thoughtfully: a targeted supplement can be one part of a balanced routine.
Meet astaxanthin
Astaxanthin is a carotenoid, part of the same family of natural pigments as beta-carotene. It's what gives salmon and shrimp their pink-red colour, and in nature it is made by microalgae.
It is fat-soluble, which is why it's usually supplied in an oil-based softgel rather than a dry tablet.
Inside the bottle

How it's meant to be used

The amount per softgel

Where the astaxanthin comes from
Astaxanthin can be extracted from microalgae or made synthetically. A good label tells you which.
-
The format
Astaxanthin is fat-soluble, so it's usually supplied in an oil-based softgel. True Nutra: softgel format.
-
A complete ingredient list
Look for every ingredient, including the softgel shell and any carrier oil, plus clear allergen information. True Nutra: printed on every label.
-

The daily dose, storage and who should check with a doctor first should be easy to find. True Nutra: on the label and in the FAQ below.

A named business with real contact details means you know who to talk to. True Nutra: a South African company you can reach by email or phone.

The softgel count is printed on the label and shown in the details for each pack on this page.
How should I store it?
Follow the storage instructions on the label. As a general rule, keep supplements in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight, with the lid tightly closed and out of reach of children.
Does it contain any allergens?
Allergen information is printed on the label. Softgel shells and carrier oils can come from different sources, so if you have an allergy or follow a particular diet, please check the full ingredient list before buying. If you're unsure, contact us and we'll help.
Is it suitable for vegetarians or vegans?

Please speak to your doctor or pharmacist before use if you:
- are pregnant, breastfeeding or trying to conceive
- are under 18
- take any prescription or chronic medication
- have a medical condition, or are due to have surgery
Keep out of reach of children.
Can I take it with my prescription medicine?
Please ask your doctor or pharmacist first. Supplements can interact with some medicines, and they know your full health picture. Never stop or change prescribed medication without medical advice.
Will it help my blood pressure or circulation?
True Nutra Astaxanthin is a food supplement, not a medicine. It is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease, including high blood pressure or circulation problems.
If you're concerned about your blood pressure or circulation, please speak to your doctor, and keep taking any medication exactly as prescribed.
How long until I notice a difference?
Everyone is different, so we can't promise a timeframe or a particular result. Supplements are about consistency: take it as directed, as one part of a balanced lifestyle. If you have a specific health goal, it's worth talking it through with your doctor.
What should I do if I have an unwanted reaction?
Stop taking it and seek medical advice. In an emergency, contact your nearest emergency service straight away. Please also let us know, with your order number, so we can record it and help you.
