Comment:
I have degeneration of two disks in my neck that left my right arm virtually useless and experiencing substantial pain. Within three days, all pain vanished and use of arm reappeared. I have been taking 12mg of nutrex daily for over two years.

Comment:
UV protection/ natural sun protection I have an allergy to the sun, and tend to not be able to stay out side in direct sunlight for any longer than 10 to 15 min without starting to get a rash and blisters... With taking Sunpills the length of time increases to about a half hour to an hour of direct sunlight causing a negative reaction

I originally started using astaxanthin to protect myself from the hundreds of x-rays my dentist takes. I found that astaxanthin cleared my acne and firmed up my skin and made it look more radiant

I had tendonitis in my elbow and wrist and had taken prescription doses of ibuprofen and done acupuncture and other body work done as well as icing the elbow and wearing an elbow brace. I took two Bioastin pills one night and slept without pain for the first time in months. The pain was extreme at night. I'm taking two pills every day now and it has helped way more than all the other treatmen
