a natural red pigment (carotenoid) produced from freshwater microalgae <em>Haematococcus pluvialis<\/em>. It is a powerful natural antioxidant with anti-inflammatory properties.<\/p>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/details>\n\n    <details class=\"faq\">\n      <summary>What is it for, and what are its benefits?<\/summary>\n      <div class=\"faq-body\">\n        <p>Its main function is to act at a cellular level, helping to protect cells against oxidative stress and to combat the low-grade, \u2018silent\u2019 inflammation associated with the body\u2019s wear and tear and ageing. Its anti-inflammatory action may help to relieve pain (such as joint, muscle or wear-and-tear pain).<\/p>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/details>\n\n    <details class=\"faq\">\n      <summary>Is it a medicine?<\/summary>\n      <div class=\"faq-body\">\n        <p>No. Azora is classified as a food supplement, not as a medicine.<\/p>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/details>\n\n    <details class=\"faq\">\n      <summary>Does Azora have rapid or immediate effects?<\/summary>\n      <div class=\"faq-body\">\n        <p>It should be noted that Azora was not developed to produce rapid effects or provide an immediate stimulant effect. It acts as a gentle, gradual support, so the most important thing is to take it consistently over the long term. Furthermore, the perception of its effects depends on one\u2019s initial condition (<em>baseline<\/em>) for each person (those with more wear and tear or inflammation tend to notice differences sooner).<\/p>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/details>\n\n    <details class=\"faq\">\n      <summary>Specific conditions: anxiety, tinnitus, vitiligo and how it differs from spirulina\/chlorella<\/summary>\n      <div class=\"faq-body\">\n        <ul class=\"sub-list\">\n          <li><span class=\"sub-label\">Anxiety and Stress<\/span>It is not specifically designed to treat anxiety. It supports cellular balance during prolonged stress, but has no direct effect on anxiety.<\/li>\n          <li><span class=\"sub-label\">Tinnitus<\/span>It is not intended for this condition, and there is no evidence that it reduces tinnitus.<\/li>\n          <li><span class=\"sub-label\">Vitiligo<\/span>It does not reverse depigmentation or treat the condition, but simply helps to protect cells against oxidative stress.<\/li>\n          <li><span class=\"sub-label\">Differences between Spirulina and Chlorella<\/span>The latter are sources of plant-based protein, whereas the <em>Haematococcus pluvialis<\/em> Azora produces the antioxidant astaxanthin.<\/li>\n        <\/ul>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/details>\n  <\/div>\n\n  <!-- SECTION 2 -->\n  <div class=\"section\">\n    <div class=\"section-number\">02<\/div>\n    <h3>What do customers say?
