Life Extension Astaxanthin is good for your eyes, heart and brain. But this ocean-sourced nutrient isn’t easy for your body to make use of—so it has been conbined with sunflower phospholipids to make it easier to absorb.

Astaxanthin with Phospholipids is loaded with health benefits, from the all-important antioxidant formulation to optimising brain, limb mobility, immunity, cardiovascular, DNA, and mitochondrial health.
