/ Astaxanthin / Haematococcus Extract is a botanical extract derived from Haematococcus pluvialis microalgae, standardized to Astaxanthin. With CAS registry number 472-61-7, this ingredient belongs to the Antioxidant & Liver/Metabolic Support category of weight management actives. Activates AMPK + enhances mitochondrial fat oxidation during exercise. 6,000× stronger antioxidant than Vitamin C protects mitochondrial membranes from exercise-induced oxidative damage, preserving fat-burning efficiency. Increases fat oxidation 15-25% during endurance exercise. As a B2B manufacturer, Shaanxi Baisifu Biological Engineering Co., Ltd. supplies Astaxanthin / Haematococcus Extract in bulk quantities with full Certificate of Analysis (COA), ensuring consistent Astaxanthin content and regulatory compliance for dietary supplement, functional food, and nutraceutical applications.
Standard specifications for Astaxanthin / Haematococcus Extract bulk supply from Baisifu:

Q1: Does Astaxanthin directly burn fat?
No. Enhances fat oxidation during exercise by protecting mitochondria and activating AMPK. Exercise-dependent — best as "exercise enhancer."
Q2: Recommended dosage?
4-12 mg/day. 4 mg general health, 8-12 mg exercise/weight management. Take with dietary fat.
For complementary weight management formulations, consider combining Astaxanthin / Haematococcus Extract with: Fucoxanthin, Green Tea Extract, CoQ10, Alpha-Lipoic Acid. Multi-ingredient stacks targeting different mechanisms (lipase inhibition, AMPK activation, thermogenesis, appetite suppression) produce synergistic effects superior to single-ingredient products.
