Can astaxanthin lengthens lifespan?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes, for worms: Astaxanthin is a caroteneoid found in salmon ; other seafood that is a powerful antioxidant ; also has anti-inflammatory properties- see http://www.Huffingtonpost.Com/suzy-cohen-rph/astaxanthin_b_2750910.Html it can extend the lifespan of worms but it would take about a hundred years to find out if it can expand human lifespan; however, anything that reduces inflammation may help extend lifespan.
