According to the findings of a recent research study by Grand View Research, Inc.; the global astaxanthin market is anticipated to grow rapidly during the forecast period (from 2017 to 2025). Astaxanthin is a naturally occurring carotenoid pigment that can be found in several marine plants, as well as animals including krill, sockeye salmon, algae, shrimp, lobsters, crabs, and red trouts. This substance is considered as the best naturally occurring antioxidant that is used to treat various health problems such as vision disorders, fatigue, skin-related diseases, and joint pain. Astaxanthin also protects the nervous system and cells from oxidative damage and supports the overall health of immune system, brain, and cardiovascular system.
The John A. Burns School of Medicine of the University of Hawaii along with Cardax Inc., a life sciences company in Honolulu, announced the results of their collaborative research assessing the uses of astaxanthin supplements. These results hold promises in anti-aging therapy. CDX-085, an astaxanthin compound by Cardax, showed the capacity to noticeably enhance the expression FOX03, the gene that plays a major role in longevity.
In the first of its kind research, animals that were given the higher amount of astaxanthin compound witnessed a considerable increase in the FOX03 gene activation in the tissue of their hearts. The developers are planning to conduct research for several other tissues where this gene is expressed, including tissues in the brain, liver, and muscles. They are also planning to conduct human medical trials to check whether these supplements could enhance the cognitive abilities in early dementia.
Rising awareness about the health benefits and uses of astaxanthin in various industries such as cosmetics and food and beverages may boost the global market. The demand for cosmetics, such as anti-aging creams and antioxidant products to enhance esthetic appeal has witnessed steep rise over the recent past. This factor is also expected to impel the demand for astaxanthin over the forecast period. Fuji Chemical Industry Co., Ltd.; JX Nippon Oil and Energy Corp; BlueOcean NutraSciences, Inc.; Heliae Development, LLC; and EID-Parry (India) Ltd. are some of the key vendors operating in the global market.
