Astaxanthin: A Natural Nutrient for Pets’ Health and Longevity – Professional Insights from Jayoo Biotech
This article introduces many benefits of astaxanthin for pets
In the field of pet health and longevity, Jayoo Biotech is committed to exploring natural and efficient nutritional solutions to safeguard the quality of life of pets. As a professional enterprise deeply engaged in the pet health industry, Jayoo Biotech has a profound understanding of pets’ physiological needs and continuously taps into the potential value of natural nutrients. Astaxanthin is one of the core nutrients that Jayoo Biotech focuses on and promotes. Through extensive research and practice, Jayoo Biotech has found that astaxanthin, with its super strong antioxidant properties, plays an irreplaceable role in maintaining the health of multiple pet systems and delaying the aging process, becoming an important assistant in pet health management.
Astaxanthin is a natural carotenoid widely found in marine organisms and microorganisms such as salmon, krill, and Haematococcus pluvialis. It is well-known for endowing these organisms with a unique orange-red color. Known as the “king of carotenoids”, its antioxidant capacity is far superior to common antioxidants such as vitamin C and vitamin E. It can act on both the inside and outside of cell membranes, efficiently scavenge free radicals, and reduce cell damage caused by oxidative stress. For pets, the benefits of this natural nutrient cover multiple key health areas, which will be analyzed in detail below combined with Jayoo Biotech’s research perspective and authoritative data.
Core Health Benefits of Astaxanthin for Pets
Based on the summary of pet physiological characteristics and clinical research, Jayoo Biotech found that the health benefits of astaxanthin for pets are concentrated in multiple dimensions such as antioxidant, immune enhancement, and organ protection, as shown in the following table:
| Health Benefits | Core Data |
| Super Antioxidant & Anti-Inflammatory | Antioxidant: 110x VitE, 6000x VitC; ↓Triglycerides & inflammatory markers |
| Ocular Health Maintenance | Significant improvement in inflammatory eye diseases in 60 days |
| Skin & Coat Improvement | Coat luster +30%+; Skin inflammation rate -25% |
| Immunity Enhancement | Immunoglobulin ↑ in 8 weeks; Common disease rate -40% |
| Joint & Muscle Protection | Post-exercise fatigue recovery time -20%; Joint limitation rate -35% |
| Cardiovascular & Liver Health | Triglycerides & ALT ↓ in 8 weeks |
| Cognitive Decline Delay | Response & memory ↑ in 60 days; Abnormal behavior rate ↓ |
Astaxanthin Antioxidant Capacity Comparison: Why It’s the First Choice for Pet Health?
To intuitively show the antioxidant advantages of astaxanthin, Jayoo Biotech has sorted out the comparison data of its capacity with common antioxidants, which is presented in the chart below. This significant difference in capacity is the core reason why astaxanthin can effectively protect pet health:

Note: Data source is authoritative research literature integrated by Jayoo Biotech. The antioxidant capacity of astaxanthin is based on vitamin C (=1), which is 6000 times that of vitamin C, far exceeding other common antioxidants, and can provide pets with more comprehensive and powerful oxidative protection.
Jayoo Biotech’s Recommendations for Astaxanthin Supplementation in Pets
As an enterprise focusing on pet health, Jayoo Biotech emphasizes that reasonable supplementation of astaxanthin is the key to exerting its efficacy, which needs to be scientifically adjusted according to the pet’s weight, age, health status and other factors. The specific recommendations are as follows:
Supplementation Dosage: Under normal circumstances, the daily supplementary dosage for pets is 0.3mg/kg body weight (for healthy dogs); for senior pets, obese pets or pets in the recovery period of illness, it can be appropriately increased to 0.5mg/kg body weight, and specific adjustments should follow the doctor’s advice.
Suppementation Form: Priority should be given to astaxanthin preparations from natural sources (such as extracted from Haematococcus pluvialis), such as pet-specific astaxanthin chews and powders recommended by Jayoo Biotech. These preparations have good palatability and higher bioavailability.
Precautions: Astaxanthin is a fat-soluble nutrient, and taking it with fatty foods can improve absorption efficiency; it cannot replace drug treatment. When a pet is ill, professional treatment should be carried out first, and then astaxanthin should be used for conditioning.
Conclusion
From antioxidant to organ protection, from immune enhancement to aging delay, astaxanthin has become an important natural nutrient in pet health management with its multi-dimensional health benefits. As a practitioner in the pet health field, Jayoo Biotech always adheres to science as the basis, taps the core value of natural nutrients, and provides safer and more efficient health solutions for pets. In the future, Jayoo Biotech will continue to conduct in-depth research on the application scenarios of natural nutrients such as astaxanthin, optimize supplementation schemes, and help more pets have a healthy and long life journey.
