Description
A formula combining astaxanthin (a carotenoid from microalgae), curcumin, nattokinase and piperine in one capsule on the natural base of fermented soy. Piperine increases the absorption of curcumin. Primarily for adults.
Ingredients
Astaxanthin (200 mg of 5% extract, equivalent to 8 mg pure astaxanthin) is a natural carotenoid from the xanthophyll group, from the microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis. The formula also contains curcumin (200 mg, standardised to 95%), the main polyphenol from turmeric rhizome (Curcuma longa).
Curcumin has naturally low bioavailability. For this reason the formula contains piperine (4 mg, standardised to 95%), an alkaloid from black pepper that influences the bioavailability of other ingredients.
The whole formula is based on a foundation of dried natto (1096 mg), the traditional Japanese fermented soy product with vitamin K2 MK-7 (39.73 µg, i.e. 53% NRV), nattokinase (110 FU), spermidine and soy isoflavones.
The formula thus brings together astaxanthin, curcumin and piperine on a natto base with vitamin K2 and enzymes.
Who is this product for?
For adults (excluding infants, children and adolescents under 14 years of age, and pregnant and breastfeeding women):
- who value the combination of a carotenoid and a polyphenol in one product based on natto
- looking for astaxanthin from microalgae enhanced with curcumin and piperine in one capsule
- following a plant-based diet: the formula is 100% vegan
Contraindications and warnings
This food supplement should not be consumed by infants, children and adolescents under 14 years of age.

The product is not suitable for people with blood coagulation disorders.
People taking any prescription medication on a regular basis should consult their doctor before starting supplementation. Due to the presence of piperine, the product may modify the absorption and metabolism of other concurrently taken medication through its interaction with hepatic enzymes (cytochrome P450) and P-glycoprotein.
In case of liver, bile duct or gallstone disorders, use of the product is not indicated.

Quality and origin
The base of the product is fresh organic natto. The producer makes it in Poland from organic soy (non-GMO) using the traditional fermentation method with Bacillus subtilis Natto bacteria.
The fresh natto then undergoes a patented low-temperature convection drying process (Polish Patent Office (UPRP) No. PL 237235, application P.424543). This technology was developed by the producer in 2017–2018 in collaboration with the Lubuskie Centre for Innovation and Agrotechnical Implementation (LOIiWA), with the aim of preserving the properties characteristic of fresh natto.
Only after drying and milling does the producer add the functional ingredients (astaxanthin, curcumin, piperine) to the dried natto. This is why the finished product does not hold an organic certificate, even though its base is organic natto.
- Natto base: Certificate PL-EKO-07-16909
- Patented drying technology
- Vegan: plant-cellulose capsule
- Non-GMO soy
Producer: Ton Color Marek Kołodziejski, Zielona Góra, Poland, the only producer of organic natto in Poland.
