Thumbs up Astaxanthin (fat Burner)

Did a search and didn't find any threads, so I figured I'd post something.

I've been taking astaxanthin for about a month now, stacked with L-carnitine and Hydroxycut (not the Muscletech kind) strictly for fat burning purposes. So far so good. Since taking it, I've managed to burn an extra half ounce of fat per week whereas I was only burning little over an ounce of fat beforehand, with at least 20 mins of cardio after weight training and 30-45 mins on rest days.

Dosage is 4mg 2x daily with meals, but I usually take the 1st dose on an empty stomach with a protein shake in the morning.

For anyone trying to burn fat fast, I highly recommend this supp stacked with L-carntinine.

Other benefits include:

# Increase in sexual performance in males
# Harder erections LOL
# Increases strength and endurance.
# Alleviates symptoms in patients with H. pylori (pre-ulcer indigestion).
# Protects cells and mitochondrial membranes from oxidative damage, thus protecting the cell from oxidative damage.
# Boosts immune system by increasing the number of antibody-producing cells.
# Prevents the initiation of cancer cells in the tongue, oral cavity, large bowel, bladder, uterus, and breast.
# Inhibits lipid peroxidation that causes plaque formation, thus reducing risk of cardiovascular disease.
# Alleviates stress and may assist in neurodegenerative conditions such as AMD, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, ALS.
# Protects the eyes and skin from UV A and B damage by quenching singlet and triplet oxygen.
# Reduces the number of new and abnormal cells in the liver

yeah astaxanthin is some good stuff. I stumbled upon it awhile ago and like it alot. Why do you take it on an empty stomach? my understanding is its better absorbed with a meal

^^ Really? I didn't know that. I take it on an empty stomach with a protein shake coz I usually hit the gym before eating. Well, that's good to know.

And, @MBS, yeah there is a non-Muscletech Hydroxycut. It's made by Tropicana Health and Fitness.
