In studies lasting 68 weeks, participants taking 412mg daily sometimes showed improved endurance, higher time-to-exhaustion scores, or smaller increases in creatine kinase an enzyme that rises with muscle damage.32 Not all trials find performance benefits, but those that do often include participants with lower baseline antioxidant intake or higher training loads.33 For now, researchers interpret the findings as preliminary evidence that astaxanthin may support recovery in situations where oxidative stress is high.38 Sleep and fatigue Researchers have begun exploring how carotenoid intake might relate to sleep quality
The cFSP1 structures form a functional homodimer The structure of the ubiquinone-bound form was obtained by co-crystallizing cFSP1 N with ubiquinone Q1 (CoQ 1 ) in the absence of NAD(P)H (Fig
