HandyHerb Vit'2GO Astaxanthin 6 mg Capsules, 12 sachets × 2 capsules (24 capsules)
HandyHerb Vit'2GO Astaxanthin is a dietary supplement in capsule form by SAND-M, Thailand. Each capsule delivers 6 mg of astaxanthin sourced from Haematococcus pluvialis red microalgae extract — the natural source with the highest concentration of this carotenoid.
Astaxanthin is one of the most potent natural antioxidants known to science. Its antioxidant activity surpasses vitamin C by approximately 6,000 times, CoQ10 by 800 times, and vitamin E by 550 times. Its unique molecular structure allows it to penetrate cell membranes and protect cells from both inside and outside simultaneously — making it especially valuable for skin, eye, and nervous system health, which face the highest levels of oxidative stress.
Convenient format: 2 capsules per individual sachet — easy to carry anywhere. One box contains 12 sachets = 24 capsules. Sold as a full box.

Antioxidant Potency
Comparison with other antioxidants
Astaxanthin surpasses the antioxidant activity of: vitamin C by ~6,000×, CoQ10 by ~800×, vitamin E by ~550×, green tea extract by ~550×, and beta-carotene by ~40×. This makes it one of the most efficient natural antioxidants at a minimal daily dose.
Who Benefits and When
For skin health and anti-aging
Astaxanthin protects the skin from UV radiation and inhibits the collagen-degrading enzyme collagenase. Regular intake helps slow the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, supports skin elasticity and hydration, and promotes an even skin tone.
For eye health
Astaxanthin is one of the few antioxidants capable of crossing the blood-retinal barrier. It accumulates in the retina and protects it from oxidative stress caused by blue light and UV exposure. Helps reduce eye fatigue from prolonged screen use.
For physical performance and recovery
Intense exercise increases free radical production in muscle tissue. Astaxanthin reduces oxidative muscle damage, supports endurance, and speeds up post-exercise recovery.
For general antioxidant protection
Urban pollution, stress, UV exposure, and screen time all accelerate cellular oxidation. Astaxanthin provides systemic cellular protection throughout the body.
How to Use

Frequently Asked Questions
What is astaxanthin and where does it come from?
Astaxanthin is a natural red-orange carotenoid produced by the red microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis under stress conditions. It is the pigment that gives salmon flesh and shrimp shells their pink colour. Supplements use concentrated extract from these algae.
Why is astaxanthin called the king of antioxidants?
Its unique molecular structure allows it to protect both the inner and outer layers of cell membranes simultaneously. Its antioxidant activity exceeds vitamin C by ~6,000×, CoQ10 by ~800×, and vitamin E by ~550× at a very low daily dose.
Does astaxanthin need to be taken with food?
Yes, always. Astaxanthin is fat-soluble — absorption is significantly reduced without dietary fats. Take the capsules during or immediately after a meal.
How many capsules come in one box and how long will it last?
One box contains 12 sachets × 2 capsules = 24 capsules. At 2 capsules per day the box lasts 12 days. A sustained course is recommended for visible results.
Is the product sold individually or as a full box?
Sold as a full box: 12 sachets × 2 capsules = 24 capsules.
