My husband has been using this for years for his joints, he’s over 70 and keeps active, doesn’t complain… it must be doing well for him❣️

Me and my wife have been taking this product for over 1 year now. The benefits have been different for both of us. The benefits for my wife have been more significant than for me. First, it does help protect you from sun burns and sun damage. I have also noticed a significant improvement in body aches and specifically in my back. I exercise a lot and over the last year, my back pain has been reduced by about 80%. I still feel some shoulder pain, but in general there is a substantial improvement. I have not noticed any improvement with vision and I don't know if I am getting any benefits from the antioxidant properties, but I assume that I am receiving these benefits.Now for my wife, the benefits for her are much more pronounced. She was very skeptical about taking this supplement, but she is fair skinned and always gets sun burned very easily. I can spend all day out in the sun and I come back in with darker skin. She can spend 20 minutes in the sun and she turns into a lobster (sub burned). I told her about the proposed benefits from the sun and said she should try it to see if it works. So we both started taking this about 1 year ago. The effects are not immediate, it takes about 30 to 60 days before you start to notice. First we both noticed that our skin tone was more peach looking, not a huge benefit, but definitely healthier looking. About 90 days after use, my wife started noticing that the sun spots / age spots on her face started to fade. She thought that she was imagining this. After about 3 months, my wife mentioned to me that her freckles / sun spots were almost gone. At that time I told her that this was one of the potential benefits of the Astaxanthin. By the 4th month, my wife's face was clear of age spots. She was absolutely amazed. I was kind of blown away also because the effect was absolutely visible.We know this effect is due to the Astaxanthin for the following reasons. We initially started taking the 4 mg per day. After 30 days, I started purchasing the 12mg product because I read that the benefits were more noticeable. We took 12mg for 4 months, but then I felt it was too expensive so I started purchasing the 4 mg product again.After switching back to the 4mg lower dose, my wife noticed that her age spots had started to come back, not completely, but just started to become visible again. So, she decided to increase her dosage of the Astaxanthin. She increased her dosage by taking 4mg, and then 8mg every other day. So on average 6mg a day. At this dosage her age spots / sun spots are gone. I take 4 mg per day and this seems to work for me.The important factor for Astaxanthin to work is that you must use it consistently with a high quality fish oil. I have been taking fish oil supplements for 10 years, now my wife now takes fish oils and Astaxanthin daily. At this time, my wife will not allow us to run out of Astaxanthin. Astaxanthin is one of the daily supplements that we take.It seems like everyone gets different benefits and my wife just happened to hit the jackpot and gets a huge benefit because of her skin type. I have not noticed any blemishes on myself that have faded, but then again I have skin type that rarely ever burns. I just turn brown. I take the Astaxanthin for the joint relief that it provides to me.Hopefully this is helpful.

This product came to me with all of the soft gels fused together. It's like they were all melted together and completely unusable. Purchase at your own risk. Can't tell if it's any good because it was unusable and I had to throw it all away. Won't buy again.

This stuff is amazing. If you normally burn out in the sun, take one beforehand, but also use sunscreen. You will be protecting your skin so much better than with sunscreen alone!
