Our scorecard

The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less.

Overview

NOW Foods packages its astaxanthin at 4 mg per veg softgel, using the company's Zanthin form, in a 60-count bottle that runs close to a two-month supply at one softgel a day. The formula is unflavored and free of the eight major allergens the brand tracks, which makes it an easy fit for people managing multiple food sensitivities.

At this dose, NOW positions the product as a lower-strength option compared to many astaxanthin supplements on the market that run 6 mg to 12 mg. The maker markets it for eye health and general antioxidant support, and it slots into NOW's broader multivitamin and specialty supplement line rather than standing as a standalone niche brand.

Pricing sits toward the lower end of the astaxanthin category, and the bottle has built a large base of reviews over time, which suggests steady repeat purchasing rather than a one-off trend.
