Swanson Spirulina & Astaxanthin – 120 Veg Tablets

Product overview

Swanson Spirulina & Astaxanthin is a well-balanced food supplement in the form of easy-to-swallow vegetarian tablets. Each bottle contains 120 tablets, providing a convenient supply for daily use over an extended period. The product combines two carefully selected algae-based ingredients: spirulina, a blue-green microalga rich in plant protein and water-soluble pigments, and astaxanthin, a red-orange, fat-soluble carotenoid derived from the microalga Haematococcus pluvialis. Swanson is an American brand with over 50 years of experience in food supplements, and has built its reputation on strict quality controls and a clear focus on pure ingredients. Its philosophy is to offer products that are both user-friendly and reliable, making this supplement an easy addition to everyday life for anyone looking for a plant-based source of nutrients in tablet form.

Active ingredients & science

The key ingredient, spirulina, is a cyanobacterium that contains a high proportion of plant-based protein as well as water-soluble pigments such as phycocyanin and chlorophyll, which give it its characteristic blue-green colour. These substances are natural components of spirulina. Astaxanthin is a fat-soluble carotenoid, known for its red-orange hue, extracted from the microalga Haematococcus pluvialis. By combining spirulina’s water-soluble nutrients with fat-soluble astaxanthin, the product provides a broader range of phytochemicals in one supplement, which is one of its distinctive features.

Benefits & uses

• A practical option for anyone looking for a food supplement in tablet form without needing to mix a powder.
• Suitable for everyday use at the office, at school or while travelling when you want quick and hygienic dosing.
• Suitable for those who prefer vegetarian products and want to avoid animal-derived ingredients such as gelatine.

Use & dosage

The recommended daily dose is 2 tablets, preferably with a meal to aid the absorption of the fat-soluble astaxanthin.
