Supplement Your Diet with Astaxanthin
"If you're going to take supplements, take astaxanthin," which is derived from algae, says Bark. In addition to being a potent antioxidant, it can also act as an anti-inflammatory and may offer protection from UV rays. Bark recommends four to six milligrams, five days a week, or eight to 12 milligrams if you are going to be in the sun.
