Astaxanthin Exercise Recovery Meta-AnalysisAstaxanthin derived fromhas attracted considerable attention due to its potent antioxidant capacity; however, evidence regarding its effects on exercise performance and recovery remains inconsistent [,].1Wei Yan (2026)The Effects of Seaweed and Microalgae Supplementation on Exercise Performance and Recovery: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Astaxanthin Exercise Recovery Meta-AnalysisBy integrating available evidence, this study sought to evaluate the dual effects of algae supplementation on exercise performance and recovery, identify intervention characteristics associated with greater efficacy, and provide more targeted evidence for sports nutrition practice, and guide the design of future high-quality RCTs.1Wei Yan (2026)The Effects of Seaweed and Microalgae Supplementation on Exercise Performance and Recovery: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Astaxanthin Exercise Recovery Meta-AnalysisTo ensure transparency, we note that, prior to data synthesis, we expanded the list of exploratory outcomes to include metabolic and oxidative stress markers, and adjusted the database search dates to ensure comprehensive coverage of the most recent clinical evidence through June 2025.1Wei Yan (2026)The Effects of Seaweed and Microalgae Supplementation on Exercise Performance and Recovery: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Astaxanthin Exercise Recovery Meta-AnalysisHaematococcus pluvialis 1 2 3 4 Seaweeds (macroalgae, including brown, red, and green algae) and microalgae (e.g., Spirulina, Chlorella,) are rich sources of high-quality protein, essential amino acids, B vitamins, and trace elements such as iron and magnesium [].1Wei Yan (2026)The Effects of Seaweed and Microalgae Supplementation on Exercise Performance and Recovery: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
Astaxanthin Exercise Recovery Meta-AnalysisAlthough animal and in vitro studies consistently report benefits, evidence in humans is still emerging, with some studies showing improvements in cardiometabolic markers and exercise performance, but others reporting equivocal results, highlighting the need for further well-controlled trials [,].3Siqueira Juliana Silva (2025)Nutraceutical Potential of Astaxanthin in Muscle Metabolism, Exercise Adaptation, and Obesity
Astaxanthin Exercise Recovery Meta-AnalysisAmong the multiple biological activities of astaxanthin, its antioxidant, anti-obesity, and muscle-related effects were selected as the main focus of this review because these domains are mechanistically interconnected through oxidative stress regulation, mitochondrial bioenergetics, and energy homeostasis, and are the most consistently supported by preclinical and clinical evidence.3Siqueira Juliana Silva (2025)Nutraceutical Potential of Astaxanthin in Muscle Metabolism, Exercise Adaptation, and Obesity
Astaxanthin Exercise Recovery Meta-AnalysisIn fact, sarcopenia/atrophy is a progressive and generalized loss of skeletal muscle mass and strength that typically occurs with aging, leading to reduced physical performance, frailty, and increased risk of morbidity.3Siqueira Juliana Silva (2025)Nutraceutical Potential of Astaxanthin in Muscle Metabolism, Exercise Adaptation, and Obesity
