This study links astaxanthin use in rats to the blocking of enzymes which play key role in dht effectiveness and production. Causing the rats who were doses with astaxanthin to have reduced dht levels. Is this a problem for those who are focused on gaining the effects of dht within there body or a helpful supplement for those avoiding hair loss?

Is DHT blocking even healthy for your future children?

i doubt astaxhanthin will lower it to a noticeable degree anyway. if you take enough astaxhanthin to lower your dht then youre prob also in a state of reductive stress which would be worse systemically anyway

Im not sure, ive been doing alot of research into carotenoids and have just been having a look into astaxanthins effects at inhibiting the enzyme that plays a key role in its production, as a overall statement id say dht is virtually useless as you get older, its effects on fertility are minimal compared to testosterone and other key hormones

True, ive just been testing out very high doses of astaxanthin so thats why i was interested, and theres no human research so its unknown if it even holds the same effect in human participants

Ill be posting a large thread covering the effects and downsides of all common carotenoids soon, so upon further research the real understanding of its effects will be on there
