Astashine Capsules: A Natural Antioxidant, Anti-inflammatory Helps in Maintaining Lung Health and Minimizing SARS-CoV-2 effects in Covid-19 Infections

Abstract: bioavailable, naturally occurring molecule with strong anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity, has been shown to (i) significantly attenuate pathological elevation of critical inflammatory cell signaling pathways (NF-kB), (ii) decrease the resulting elevated proinflammatory cytokine levels, (iii) reduce immune cell infiltration of the lung, and (iv) positively influence macrophage polarization in humans and animal models of disease. Corona represents crown-like spikes on the outer surface of the virus thus… Show more

“…Astaxanthin prevents cytokine storms by inhibiting nuclear factor-kB (NF-κB) signaling cascade as well as inflammatory cytokines. It thus has the potential to prevent acute respiratory syndrome due to coronavirus infection ( 11 – 13 ). To reduce and also counteract the severe effects of the virus and the resulting disease, it is necessary to use methods and treatments that reduce anti-inflammatory agents and cytokines.…”
