Astaxanthin - Feed Ingredient
Astaxanthin is a red-pigmented carotenoid naturally found in microalgae, yeast (Phaffia rhodozyma), and marine organisms such as shrimp and salmon. It is known for its strong antioxidant properties, surpassing many other carotenoids in oxidative stress mitigation.
In equine supplements, astaxanthin is included primarily for its antioxidant support and is typically sourced from algae or yeast in a dried or encapsulated form. It may be used in formulations aimed at supporting cellular health or combating oxidative stress in performance horses.
