Dr. Karen Hecht & Carl Pradelli Discuss Astaxanthin
In this episode of the NatureCity Podcast, Dr. Karen Hecht...
Haematococcus Pluvialis (H. Pluvialis) algae is the most concentrated, potent and sustainable source of natural astaxanthin. Moreover, as nature’s original “producer” of astaxanthin, microalgae such as H. Pluvialis, provide the ideal shape that offers the greatest biological activity.
AstaReal® was the first company in the world to commercially produce natural astaxanthin from H. Pluvialis and has unmatched purity and quality.
AstaReal® used its 30 years of experience to open a state-of-the art production facility in Moses Lake, Washington. Here, natural astaxanthin is cultivated and harvested using a fully enclosed, ultra-clean, indoor bioreactor system – ensuring that the final astaxanthin will be free of pollutants and environmental impurities that can degrade astaxanthin.
The algae feed is non-GMO and non-allergenic, the air is purified using a HEPA filter, and the water is triple osmosis filtered. Optimal light conditions trigger the conversion of green chlorophyll in algae to the astaxanthin rich “red phase.”
AstaReal® has been the subject of over 150 efficacy and safety studies including over 70 human studies conducted in Japan, Sweden and the USA. We don’t believe and other source of astaxanthin comes close.
What’s more, AstaReal® continues to invest in new research to discover how else the powerful astaxanthin nutrient can benefit your health.

Astaxanthin is sometimes called the “King of All Antioxidants” because of these powerful features:
Lab testing indicated astaxanthin is up to 6,000x better than vitamin C and 110x better than vitamin E at neutralizing certain free radicals.
Unlike other antioxidants, astaxanthin works on most of the major types of harmful free radicals
Unlike most other antioxidants, astaxanthin is not limited where it can work in cells.
Unlike some other antioxidants, astaxanthin will never turn into one of the "bad guys".
Each TrueAsta soft gel contains 6mg of AstaReal® natural astaxanthin. We recommend taking one (1) soft gel daily for vision, muscle and endurance, skin, and cardiovascular support.
If you are interested in potential brain health benefits, or otherwise seeking more antioxidant support, we recommend taking two (2) TrueAsta soft gels daily (a total of 12mg of AstaReal® natural astaxanthin). Unless directed by your physician, you shouldn’t need to take more than 2 TrueAsta soft gels daily.
You can take TrueAsta any time of the day, as long as you take it together with a meal to help improve absorption. Astaxanthin is absorbed in the intestine and typically reaches maximum levels in the blood stream within 7-10 hours after ingestion.
The bloodstream delivers astaxanthin throughout the body where it can get absorbed by tissues and protect against free radicals produced by metabolic and environmental stress.
You can take TrueAsta together with other supplements, and in fact it may be supportive of other nutrients you take such as vitamin C for immune health, lutein for vision health, and collagen for skin health. However, if you have health concerns, you should discuss them with your healthcare provider before supplementing with astaxanthin.
TrueAsta does not contain iodine.
