Overview

Sports Research packs 12mg of astaxanthin, sourced as Icelandic AstaLif, into softgels carried in organic coconut oil. Marketed toward skin and eye health support, the 60 count bottle is gluten free, soy free and non-GMO.

The 12mg dose sits above the roughly 4mg found in many standard astaxanthin softgels, which is what the triple strength name refers to. Coconut oil serves as the carrier here, useful since astaxanthin is a fat soluble carotenoid that benefits from an oil base for absorption.

  • 12mg triple strength astaxanthin
  • Icelandic AstaLif sourced
  • Organic coconut oil carrier
  • Gluten free, soy free, non-GMO

Who it's for

People specifically after skin and eye health support from a concentrated astaxanthin dose, not general multivitamin users looking for broader coverage.

Strengths and trade-offs

Drawn from this product's published specifications.

What stands out
  • 12mg triple strength dose

  • Gluten free, soy free and non-GMO
What to check first
  • Formulation is narrow, aimed at skin and eye support rather than general use
  • No review text available to gauge tolerability

Performance notes

Astaxanthin is fat soluble, and pairing it with organic coconut oil in a softgel is a common approach to support that. The listing names the specific ingredient source (Icelandic AstaLif) but does not detail the extraction or capsule size.
