Overview

Sports Research Triple Strength Vegan Astaxanthin delivers 12mg of algae-derived Icelandic Astalif astaxanthin per softgel, in a 60-count bottle. The plant-based softgels are made with coconut oil and are Non-GMO Project Verified, gluten free and vegan.

Astaxanthin is a carotenoid antioxidant sourced from algae, and this version's distinguishing point is the plant-based softgel itself, since most astaxanthin softgels use gelatin rather than a vegan shell. At 12mg the dose sits on the higher end for astaxanthin products, described here as triple strength. Sports Research markets it for antioxidant activity along with skin and eye health.

  • 12mg algae-derived astaxanthin per softgel
  • 60-count bottle
  • Vegan softgel made with coconut oil
  • Non-GMO Project Verified

Who it's for

Suits vegans and vegetarians who specifically want an animal-free astaxanthin softgel, since many competing products use gelatin capsules. It's not the pick for anyone wanting a lower-dose or budget option, given the triple-strength 12mg positioning.

Strengths and trade-offs

Drawn from this product's published specifications.

What stands out
  • 12mg triple-strength astaxanthin dose
  • Vegan, plant-based softgel shell
  • Non-GMO Project Verified
What to check first
  • Higher dose may be more than casual users need
  • Coconut oil base won't suit those avoiding coconut derivatives

Performance notes

Astaxanthin's antioxidant role depends on consistent daily intake, and a 60-count bottle at one softgel per day covers roughly two months. Using coconut oil as the carrier oil and a vegan softgel shell are the two features that set this apart from standard gelatin-based astaxanthin capsules.
