Astaxanthincan significantly promote the ability of spleen cells to produce antibodies in the presence of antigens, and enhance T-cells to stimulate the production of immunoglobulins in human blood cells. At the initial stage of antigen invasion, astaxanthin can also enhance specific humoral immune responses. Astaxanthin has the best activity of inducing cell division, can improve the production of human immunoglobulin, and has an important immune regulation effect.
Therefore, the application of astaxanthin in immune-enhancing health foods is an important direction for the development of astaxanthin. Many countries have launched a variety of astaxanthin products to enhance immune function. Some of these products use the method of combining astaxanthin and other functional extracts to produce a variety of new products with higher functional effects, such as astaxanthin and other carotenoids to strengthen its immune function.
