Storage:store in its original packaging, in a cool and dry place;keep away from light, heat and moisture;close the bottle tightly after use.

Can I take more than one capsule a day?

No. The recommended dose is 1 capsule per day. It is important not to exceed the recommended daily dose and not to combine it with other products containing astaxanthin or astaxanthin esters.

How long should I take it for?

Regular intake over 2 to 3 months can be considered before reassessing your needs. One pill jar corresponds to 1 month of use.

Can it be taken all year round?

The product can be included in a daily routine, provided the recommended dose is respected. For prolonged use or in particular circumstances, ask a healthcare professional for advice.

Does astaxanthin replace sun protection?

No. Even though research is looking at astaxanthin and the skin’s response to UV, it never replaces suitable sun protection. When exposed to the sun, use SPF protection and follow the usual sun protection recommendations.

Are there any side effects?

Astaxanthin is generally very well tolerated at the recommended doses. Individual sensitivity to one of the ingredients is nevertheless possible.If digestive discomfort or a change in stool colour occurs, we advise you to stop taking it and seek advice from a healthcare professional.

Astaxanthin is the subject of extensive research, particularly regarding skin, oxidative stress, vision, and physical activity.Regarding skin, several studies have looked at hydration, elasticity, and the appearance of signs of ageing, as well as how the skin reacts to UV exposure.Regarding vision, recent research is exploring its potential role in visual comfort, particularly in daily life involving extensive screen time.Regarding exercise, astaxanthin is also being studied for its potential role in recovery after exercise. Some studies have focused in particular on muscle damage, exercise-induced stress, and various recovery markers.These results come from studies conducted using specific doses and populations. They do not constitute authorised health claims and may not apply in the same way to everyone.

Astaxanthin can be incorporated into a routine that includes other supplements that do not themselves contain astaxanthin or astaxanthin esters.For a comprehensive beauty routine, it can notably be combined with collagen food supplements and vitamin C. Astaxanthin also works very well with cosmetics such as SPF 50 sunscreens and moisturiser. To complement omega-3 intake, it can also be taken alongside a microalgal DHA supplement.Always check the composition and precautions for use of each product.

Astaxanthin

What makes this product unique

8 mg of astaxanthin per capsule

A highly concentrated extract delivering, in each capsule, all the benefits of the antioxidants naturally present in astaxanthin.

Supercritical CO₂ extraction

A gentle method for extracting fat-soluble compounds (astaxanthin) without using polluting chemical solvents. The CO₂ is then separated from the extract and recycled almost indefinitely.

A controlled European supply chain

Our microalga is grown in Europe, in a controlled environment, with pure water protected from pollutants. Controlled production, from cultivation to extraction, for complete traceability and optimal quality.

Only 3 ingredients

Astaxanthin, organic extra virgin olive oil and the plant-based shell. A 3-part, 100% plant-based, GMO-free formula that is sustainable and easy to read.

This astaxanthin is intended for people over 14 years old who wish to incorporate a natural active ingredient derived from microalgae into their beauty & wellness routine. At 8 mg/day, this age limit is consistent with the European conditions of use for the astaxanthin-rich oleoresin derived from Haematococcus pluvialis.

It is particularly suitable if you are looking for:

a natural astaxanthin rather than synthetic;
a European and traceable origin;
a short formula, with only 3 ingredients;
a vegan and fish oil-free alternative;
a microalgal active ingredient widely studied in the world of beauty and healthy ageing.

Astaxanthin is a natural carotenoid produced notably by the microalga Haematococcus pluvialis.

It is currently the subject of a significant body of scientific literature, particularly regarding the skin, vision and physical activity. For example, there are scientific reviews specifically on its studied applications in eye health.

The observed results vary depending on the doses, populations and protocols studied and do not constitute authorised health claims for our product.

The answers to your questions

Astaxanthin is a red-orange pigment belonging to the carotenoid family. It is naturally produced by certain microalgae, notably Haematococcus pluvialis, and is then found in marine animals that feed on these microalgae.

The astaxanthin used by Thaléïs is extracted directly from Haematococcus pluvialis, grown in a controlled environment in Europe. This method yields natural, traceable astaxanthin without relying on large-scale harvesting from marine ecosystems.
