Did a heck ton of research on Astaxanthin prior to this, and hoped for some good results. But after taking what is a large dose for that long I noticed no difference on any health issue whatsoever. Might be premature, but I decided to skip it from then on. I do take krill oil, which contains some Astaxanthin naturally though. (Captain`s krill oil to be precise) This will at least protect the EPA/DHA fatty acids from going rancid, which is quite important. I have some doubts about the effects of Astaxanthin in humans after this experiment. It`s not given that an algae derived antioxidant works in humans! But on the other hand, there are plenty of studies showing  it`s effectiveness in lab animals like mice.</blockquote>
