IngredientAmount per serving
Astaxanthin12 mg

What to check on the label

  • Whether the milligrams describe the whole extract or the standardised compound (for example '500 mg turmeric extract' versus '475 mg curcuminoids').
  • Delivery wording such as liposomal or phytosome changes the carrier, not the labelled amount.
  • For glutathione and sulforaphane, check whether the label lists the compound itself or a precursor (glucoraphanin, NAC).

Amounts are per label serving as recorded in the catalog and are not a recommendation. Testing status reflects what the brand lists. Nothing here is medical advice.

Evidence gates dose: the evidence grade sets the ceiling, and the dose decides how much of that ceiling the product reaches. Value = inverse of price-per-trial-dose-day. Community = mean sentiment of external reviews. Safety caps applied after weighting.

This score is our editorial judgment, not a scientific standard. We combine published evidence, dose, price, transparency, and consumer signals into one composite: this is our method, not a peer-reviewed clinical rating. A higher score means a product does better on the factors we weight, not that it is medically proven to work.

Why this scored this way

This Double Wood Supplements Astaxanthin Supplement scores 8.0, making it a strong scorer. It delivers 12mg of Astaxanthin, inside the studied range of 4–12mg with grade B evidence (promising human data, not yet comprehensive). Transparency is a clear strength (score: 9.0), with third-party testing and a public lab certificate. At $0.29/day it's priced well for what you get.

What drives the score up

  • Dose-evidence score of 7.2 shows decent alignment with trial doses.
  • Quality transparency of 9.0: tested by independent lab with a public lab certificate.
  • Value score of 9.7 at $0.29/day.
  • Astaxanthin is dosed at the full research level with grade B evidence (promising human data, not yet comprehensive).

What drags it down

  • No significant weaknesses identified in the current scoring framework.

Why you'd choose it

  • You want good value at $0.29/day.
  • You want Astaxanthin from a Double Wood Supplements product.
  • You prioritise tested by independent lab products with public lab certificates.

Why you might skip it

  • You want a product in a different category.
  • You want a cheaper antioxidant option.
  • You prefer products with more consumer feedback.

Question 3

What's the catch?

Safety flags, transparency gaps, dosing concerns, and recurring buyer complaints.

Safety signals
Exceeds upper intake limit — astaxanthin
12.0 mg per serving exceeds the tolerable upper intake level of 8.0 mg/day. EFSA has authorized astaxanthin-rich ingredients in food supplements up to 8 mg/day (based on an Acceptable Daily Intake of 0.2 mg/kg bw/day), which is considered safe for adults; earlier animal studies found liver-related effects (hepatocellular hypertrophy) at high chronic doses.

Editorial notes

Genuinely well-sourced: uses the branded, clinically-studied AstaReal astaxanthin (the same ingredient supplier cited in most positive human astaxanthin trials) at a solid 12mg dose, with a batch-specific HPLC potency figure (13.3mg actual) published directly in the product's own meta description. This is one of the more credible, best-reviewed SKUs in the whole catalog (169 reviews, 4.9 rating).
