Two months on 12 mg. Saw nothing. Read your pouch.
Many astaxanthin pouches stop at 12 mg a serving. Gold Seal is 12 mg a softgel and 2 softgels a serving, so 24 mg a day, from microalgae, with 4 other carotenoids. During this sale, the 3rd pouch is free.*
Flip your pouch over. Find these three lines.
- Astaxanthin, mg per serving. Not per softgel. Gold Seal: 24 mg per 2 softgels.
- The source. Look for Haematococcus pluvialis microalgae, the natural source.
- What's with it. Carotenoids are fat-soluble, so an oil softgel and partner carotenoids matter.
Illustration. Natural astaxanthin is a deep red pigment.
Most human studies on astaxanthin used 4 to 12 mg a day. Gold Seal Astaxanthin gives you 24 mg per serving, so even a one-softgel day still lands at 12 mg.*

Questions
Is it a pouch or a bottle?
A resealable stand-up pouch with 60 softgels: 30 days at 2 softgels a day.
How do I take it?
2 softgels a day with a meal. Carotenoids are fat-soluble, so food helps.
Is it 12 mg or 24 mg?
Both, and here's the math. Each softgel holds 12 mg. The serving is 2 softgels, so 24 mg a day.
Is 24 mg too much?
24 mg is the full 2-softgel serving on the label. If you take medication or have a medical condition, check with your doctor first.
Can it change my skin tone?
Some people who take astaxanthin mention a slight golden tone, mostly on pale skin. If you notice it, go down to 1 softgel (12 mg) or talk to your doctor.
What if it's not for me?
30-day money-back guarantee on every order. You don't need to send anything back.
