Astaxanthin is a powerful antioxidant that it is 10 times more capable than other carotenoids, so it is beneficial in cardiovascular, immune, inflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases. It also crosses the blood-brain barrier, which makes it available to the eye, brain and central nervous system to alleviate oxidative stress that contributes to ocular, and neurodegenerative diseases such as glaucoma and Alzheimer's. Astaxanthin's benefits hardly stop here. A 2008 study published in the European Journal of Pharmacology demonstrated benefits with regards to taking astaxanthin for gastrointestinal health as well. Since astaxanthin is a known antioxidant that scavenges harmful free radicals from the body, researchers from the Plant Cell Biotechnology Department at the Central Food Technological Research Institute in India decided to investigate whether or not it might help prevent ulcers.
