Astalíf debuted last year, and is a potent antioxidant that helps support cognitive health, eye health, muscle recovery, heart health, skin health, and more. Astalíf is available as 5 percent and 10 percent astaxanthin oleoresins, suitable for softgel capsules and topical, oil-based cosmetics, as well as 5 percent astaxanthin biomass, suitable for tablets and soft/hard gel capsules.
Astalif is manufactured in a state-of-the-art, cGMP-compliant, indoor facility. Algalif utilizes Icelandic water that is filtered through layers of volcanic rock to remain low in minerals and free of chlorination. In addition, Algalif incorporates clean energy practices, and 100 percent of its manufacturing facility is powered by geothermal energy. It uses a specialized, proprietary lighting system that reduces overall energy consumption by 50 percent and enables optimal microalgae growth, productivity, and yield. Algalif’s unique, enclosed photobioreactor cultivation system and its exclusive three-phase cultivation process help to ensure optimal growth of the microalgae and high yield of pure astaxanthin.
