TESTING

Healthier, More Natural Food

Astaxanthin, a main antioxidant in wild salmon that promotes pigmentation, can exist in various isomeric forms. In Panaferd®-AX, the isomeric form of astaxanthin is identical to that found in wild salmon. This isomeric form of astaxanthin can be detected in the flesh of your fish and is a key marker of the final product’s natural origins.

Additional antioxidants and nutrients found in Panaferd® make it much more than just a pigment – it is also a key ingredient to a healthier fish and a higher market value for your products. The use of natural pigment, like Panaferd – allows producers to physically distinguish their products, and sell to the most discerning food stores, processors, and chefs.
