INSIDE THE FORMULA
Two ingredients. Each here for a reason.
Two ingredients. Each here for a reason.
AstaBuckthorn keeps the formula intentionally focused. AstaReal® natural astaxanthin leads the antioxidant and evidence story, while sea buckthorn oil adds a complementary fatty-acid role to the broader everyday-resilience story.

WHY THESE INGREDIENTS
The detail is in what we chose.
A closer look at the sources, composition and evidence behind the ingredients that anchor AstaBuckthorn’s long-term antioxidant story.
01
AstaReal® Natural Astaxanthin
WHY WE CHOSE ASTAREAL®
A trusted astaxanthin source from Japan.
AstaReal® natural astaxanthin is sourced from Haematococcus pluvialis microalgae and is part of Fuji Chemical Group in Japan. It was selected as AstaBuckthorn's antioxidant and evidence anchor for its defined source and ingredient-level human research.

Human research
ingredient-level evidence
Astaxanthin is known for strong in-vitro antioxidant activity. ORAC is one laboratory method used to describe antioxidant capacity, but it does not tell us exactly what will happen inside the human body.
02
Sea buckthorn oil
WHAT SEA BUCKTHORN ADDS
More than omegas. A distinctive fatty-acid profile.
Sea buckthorn oil adds a complementary lipid story to the formula. Its current supplier specification includes omega 3, 6, 7 and 9, with omega 7 standing out as a comparatively uncommon fatty acid across plant sources.
Omega 3
Part of the broader fatty-acid profile.
Omega 6
Adds to the oil's complementary lipid profile.
Omega 7
Comparatively uncommon across plant sources.
Omega 9
Rounds out the formula's fatty-acid mix.
Omega 7 is a notable part of sea buckthorn's profile and helps explain why this oil plays a distinct complementary role alongside astaxanthin.
