5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the investment

(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } 45p for each 8mg astaxanthin capsule is on the higher end of what I've paid in the past, but Wellgard is a popular and trusted brand with reputable products, so it's a reasonable price to pay for the quality and trust you can put in the product.I've used astaxanthin for years due to evidence on improving cholesterol, cardiovascular health, skin health, and some evidence toward anti aging effects, and I do feel as though I've benefitted in some small and subtle ways.This product is packaged professionally, with each soft gel capsule foil sealed individually, with plenty of information about the supplement on the packaging.I like that there is also a small quantity of vegan vitamin D, which negates the need to take that separately.Overall this is a great quality supplement with good science behind it, worth investing in if you are interested in longterm health.

5.0 out of 5 stars good astaxanthin capsules decent value for a 30 pack

F.A. · 16 May 2025

been taking these a wee while now and i think theyre helping as feel a bit m,ore energy. capsules are bright red and easy to take, no after taste. came in foil blisters which i like over tubs as its easier to see how many ive used and how manys left and suppose they stay fresher a bit more than when theyre in tubs.. mostly got them cause i read a lot online about astaxanthin. my eyes do feel a bit less tired. cant say if its placebo or not but either way i feel better sticking with them for now.. its natural too which i prefer, and says it uses olive oil which i think is meant to help with absorption.. no stomach upset or anything like that. the d3 is nice too as i dont get as much sunlight as i probably should feels like a good clean supplement and the brand seems decent so far.. will probably keep taking it and see how it goes over the next couple months.. good value for a 30 pack and dont necessarily need to take 1 every day so could last a couple of months

I'll be honest, I didn't see any benefit in taking these. I actually purchased a 2nd pack to give it longer to work but didn't see any difference in any way.

5.0 out of 5 stars High quality natural Astaxanthin supplement

M.N.D. · 13 March 2025

These natural Astaxanthin capsules come in two blister packs contained in a small cardboard box. They are red in colour and standard capsule size and shape. I have no problem swallowing them with some water. The capsules have no noticeable taste or smell, and I have not noticed any after-taste or other unwanted side effects from them.Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant with many potential health benefits. This formulation also includes Vitamin D3, sometimes known as the sunshine vitamin. This also has many potential health benefits, for bone and immune system health in particular. Many people in the UK are deficient in Vitamin D in the winter months especially, so its inclusion in this supplement is a welcome bonus.The recommended dose is one a day, so a pack should last you a month. Nothing really to criticize, so I am awarding this natural Astaxanthin supplement a full five stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars Review 6 weeks after discontinuing: Like that it uses olive oil as a carrier oil

S. · 23 March 2025

Ran out of this 6 weeks ago, my skin looks dull & isn't as glowy, my eyes feel dry after staring at a screen. I feel pretty low. Cuts and scrapes are taking longer to heal. Just reordered. First brand I've tried that matches the quality of my fav brand. Dislikes The D3 doesn't mention K2 would prefer it without it. 4.5/5 stars from me so rounded upBeen a while since I reviewed a product I would recommend and repurchased for others & myself

Firstly I want to say I take a variety of vitamins supplements and they have free definitely helped me with my overall health and wellbeing especially my immune system aswell as energy levels.I like this manufacturer as they make high quality health supplements and don't bombard you with all sorts of exagerated claims after doing a little research in trying these out to help my overall health and wellbeing... easy to take with a glass of water...My advice try a box and see how you feel.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good quality

This is an antioxidant found in microalgae, yeast, salmon and shrimp. It's what makes salmon pink. A comparison with other antioxidants showed that this had the highest effect against free radicals.There is evidence that it can improve blood flow, and may improve some causes of high blood pressure, like elasticity of arteries, amongst other things.I like that they make no health claims, though, and I know this company make high quality products.The article mentioned the high cost of purified astaxanthin, so I imagine most products use the artificial version.This is a Vine Voice review, but that has not changed my opinion and I only review items I would buy. I try to use or test all products, or if I can't, I at least check them. You can see my rating system on my public profile under my bio, as I don't want to add it to every review.

5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to swallow

The Wellgard Vegan 8mg Astaxanthin Supplement arrived as described and looks just like the advertised photos.I got these after reading the benefits of Astaxanthin online - such as anti-oxidant support, skin improvement and eye health. These tablets are easy to swallow and don't leave any aftertaste which is great.It comes with full instructions on how to take it and when. It also has a full ingredient list and storage instructions which is very convenient.These seem like high quality supplements, it's been a few weeks that I've been taking these and I do think its given my skin a bit of a glow and a natural tan. I would recommend!
