The findings were especially significant for levels of IgM, the predominant antibody produced early in an immune response.

Key Points: 
  • The findings were especially significant for levels of IgM, the predominant antibody produced early in an immune response.
  • This was a unique human clinical trial that measured physiological responses to astaxanthin supplementation after intense exercise using untargeted proteomics (500 proteins across all samples) and a targeted, comprehensive panel of oxylipins and cytokines.
  • Astaxanthin cannot be synthesised by humans, so it must be consumed in the diet via food or supplements.
  • "From this study, we learned that during recovery, algae-derived astaxanthin normalizes 20 immunoglobulins in those with increased inflammation from recurrent physiological stress – runners.
