Description
Ergothioneine- a food-derived amino acid (found in certain mushrooms in high concentrations) that is thought to play a crucial role in supporting long-term health through its cell-protective benefits and inhibition of free radicals.
Benefits of Ergothioneine Supplements
Healthy aging and longevityย
Studies indicate that ergothioneine can delay telomere shortening due to oxidative stress. Your telomeres are like protective caps at the end of your chromosomes. As time goes by, these telomeres shorten naturally, in step with your aging process.
In a preclinical study, L-ergothioneine had a protective effect on telomere length and slowed the rate of telomere shortening under oxidative stress conditions, and in that supporting longevity. A recent mouse study showed an amazing 21% lifespan increase.
Cognitive and vision health
Low levels of ergothioneine in older adults have been linked with cognitive decline. In preclinical studies, ergothioneine showed beneficial neuroprotective properties from oxidative stress, supporting overall cognitive health.
The cell-protecting properties of ergothioneine have also been linked to vision health.
Supporting heart health
A 2020 clinical study found that higher ergothioneine levels were associated with healthier diets and with heart health.
One daily capsule provides as much L-ergothioneine as 2 to 5 cups of white button mushrooms.
