CortexMD Astaxanthin 12mg
What the research on astaxanthin shows
12 mg/day of astaxanthin over 4 weeks was associated with increased blood-flow velocity (p = 0.018).
View study →Over 10 days at 6 mg/day, whole-blood transit time grew faster — a measure of how easily blood moves through the smallest vessels (p < 0.01).
View study →Across randomized controlled trials, astaxanthin reduced MDA, a primary marker of oxidative stress.

It's about flow.
As we age, oxidative stress puts pressure on the delicate lining inside our blood vessels — the system that keeps blood moving the way it used to. Astaxanthin is one of nature's most powerful antioxidants, and it's uniquely built to support that system from the inside out.*
Fights oxidative stress
Astaxanthin helps neutralize the free radicals that build up against your cells over time.*
Supports the vessel lining
It works on both the watery and fatty sides of the cell membrane — something most antioxidants can't do.*
Supports healthy circulation
The result studied in research: support for healthy blood flow and cardiovascular health.*
What lets a wild salmon swim 2,000 miles upstream?
The answer is astaxanthin — the deep-red pigment that fuels the most extraordinary endurance in nature, concentrated from the microalgae salmon feed on. It's the same molecule NASA has studied for protecting astronauts, and the one Japanese researchers have studied for decades.
CortexMD sources its astaxanthin from Haematococcus pluvialis — the exact microalgae used in published human research — at the full 12 mg dose.
What the research on astaxanthin shows.
Here are examples of measurements reported in peer-reviewed astaxanthin studies.
12 mg/day of astaxanthin over 4 weeks was associated with increased blood-flow velocity (p = 0.018).
View study →Over 10 days at 6 mg/day, whole-blood transit time grew faster — a measure of how easily blood moves through the body's smallest vessels (p < 0.01).
View study →Across randomized controlled trials, astaxanthin reduced MDA, a primary marker of oxidative stress in the body.
View study →The 12 mg in each CortexMD capsule matches the dose used in the human research above. Not marketing math — the studied number.

Why CortexMD, not the bottle next to it.
This isn't another mystery-blend pill from a late-night ad. It's a single, studied molecule — delivered the way the research did.
Full 12 mg research dose
The exact dose used in published human studies — no fractional, under-dosed servings.
Hawaiian Haematococcus pluvialis
The richest natural source of astaxanthin, and the form used in the research.
One studied molecule
No proprietary blends, no filler ingredients you can't pronounce. Just astaxanthin.
Oil-based softgel
Astaxanthin is fat-soluble — an oil softgel supports better absorption than dry powder.
Give it the full window.
Astaxanthin works gradually. In the research, effects were measured over several weeks — so take it daily and give your body the time the studies did.
- Take one softgel a day, with a meal that contains some fat.
- Most people take it consistently for 2–4 weeks before noticing a difference.
- Consistency matters more than dose-stacking — one a day, every day.
- Pairs well with the basics: movement, sleep, and a whole-food diet.
Try it for 90 days. The risk is ours.
