Neither I nor Google.com know the definition of AltaReal. Your question is unanswerable by me...and by Google.com for that matter. Perhaps you would like to word your question differently?

It has 1.6 mg of astaxanthin, and it is easy for me to swallow. It is one of those capsuls that break in two in the middle, but I swallow it whole.

I don't believe so, but then I don't have the shorter version. I suggest contacting Friendly Swede directly.

It isn't on the label - Swedish for "creosote" is "kreosot" and that doesn't appear anywhere. It does bear an "Irriterande" symbol, and that means "Irritant" but I don't know what Swedish standards are. I'd say be advised and test. If it doesn't work for soap, it's great for wood.

All my research says they are good. However, it is the astaxanthin that I believe to help me support my immune system. Here is the latest from Web MD (who I am not an advocate of because of their affiliation with the AMA and Multinational Pharmaceutical Corps)Astaxanthin is used for treating Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, "brain attack" (stroke), high cholesterol, and an eye condition called age-related macular degeneration (AMD). It is also used for preventing cancer. I only included this because most people are into the main stream medical beliefs.

I don't think so, they don't say on the label, so no, not gluten free. Extra virgin olive oil is the ingredient, and it is alright with me. I don't seem to have any problems really and I try to eat a diet of gluten free most of time. This is an okay product, I am sure astaxanthin works good. try it.

It's Norwegian cod liver oil, made in Norway. It's not bad tasting at all. It has lemon flavoring.

No. The ones by Viva explicitly state they are organic and non-GMO, however, so they might be a better choice for you.

No. The only ingredients are: extra virgin olive oil and the softgel capsule, made of Halal certified gelatin, vegetable glycerin and purified water. Along with the natural astaxanthin of course. Great stuff!

It's confusing. The website mentions the coast of Peru but the bottle says "Norwegian Fish Oil."

No. This product is useless. It has very little lutein. Look for floraglo lutein. I like the one vitacost has. It has unbeatable price.

Hello, I'm sorry but not at my residence at present; I believe the spirulina is from the U.S., but cannot be sure without reviewing the packaging. Perhaps Starwest can help?

I don't believe this form of Glutathione is absorbed very well. It was more obvious when I received injection and now I am on the pump of liquid form. I do not know the facial complexion has improved bur overall skin condition has definitely improved. I hope Viva can offer the same format of Glutathione which is now sold by Quick Silver...(That one is expensive, about $90 a month).

I can not tell you if it was reformulated as this is the first time I have purchased it. The product I received is sheer....no color....or at least that is how it appears on my skin. I have a very fair Scandinavian and Portuguese (Iberian) complexion. Very fair with a very very light olive tone.....I always have to use the lightest shade of makeup possible, and this product worked beautifully on my skin. I felt it really was translucent and did not see any trace of the "orange" that others had mentioned in their reviews. I couldn't be happier with this product.
