********CRITIQUES, RULES, AND NOTES********

Critiques of my work are welcome! Please be aware of the following notes & rules before submitting critique:

The information provided in this study analysis is limited to the subject and outcomes detailed in the study analyzed [For example: “Consuming sugar (subject) raises insulin (outcome).”] and is not meant to be an all-encompassing education on every health outcome of the subject (unless otherwise stated). I welcome all respectful critique of the study as I may have missed a key detail that you may catch; if that is the case, I will make an ‘Amendment’ to the video and credit you (thank you for making science knowledge better!). Also be aware that I receive hundreds of YouTube comments per day, so the only way your critique can be considered is if you follow the steps outlined below. Finally, YouTube auto-deletes links, so I do not see most comments with links attached.

RULES:
If your comment is rude, you will be banned without warning.
If your comment is not about the studies/topics at hand (i.e. extending to other outcomes not discussed) or offers critique with no scientific basis, your comment will be ignored.

If you can follow these rules, I will try to address your critique and if there is merit, I will add an AMENDMENT to the content in question and pin it so everyone can see it.

Mindsip insights from this episode:

Acknowledge lack of evidence for astaxanthin's effect on wrinkles

Despite improving moisture and elasticity, the same meta-analysis found no statistically significant evidence that astaxanthin reduces skin wrinkles.

Enhance skin moisture and elasticity with astaxanthin supplementation

A meta-analysis of human trials concluded that astaxanthin supplementation provides a statistically significant improvement in both skin moisture and elasticity.

Exercise caution with weak evidence from biased studies

The studies included in the meta-analysis were assessed as having a high risk of bias, meaning the conclusions should be viewed with caution.

Enhance skin moisturization by improving sebum quality with astaxanthin

By preventing oxidation, astaxanthin improves the quality of sebum (your skin's natural oil), which helps with proper moisturization.

Preserve skin structure by reducing MMPs with astaxanthin

Astaxanthin helps preserve skin structure by reducing the production of metalloproteinases (MMPs), which are enzymes that degrade collagen and elastin fibers.

Leverage astaxanthin for superior antioxidant protection

Astaxanthin is known to have approximately 40 times greater antioxidant ability than the more common beta-carotenoids.
