Product Description:
What is L-Ergothioneine?
L-ergothioneine (EGT) is a naturally occurring sulfur-containing amino acid only biosynthesized by fungi and mycobacteria in the soil.
Ergothioneine is not rapidly metabolised, or excreted in urine and is present in many, if not all, human tissues and body fluids.It is a stable antioxidant molecule and does not degrade at high temperature and high pH.
While mushrooms are the richest dietary source of ergothioneine, other ergothioneine rich foods include black beans, red meat and oats. Mushrooms are also a good dietary source of glutathione which tog with ergothioneine are excellent dietary antioxidants. However, ergothioneine mushroom species show variations in the levels of these antioxidants.

Function of the L-Ergothioneine:
1. Antioxidant effect
As a natural antioxidant, Ergothioneine can effectively remove-OH, chelate ferrous ions and copper ions, prevent H2O2 from
generating-oh under the action of iron or copper ions, and inhibit copper ion-dependent type The oxidation of oxyhemoglobin can
also inhibit the peroxidation reaction of arachidonic acid after myoglobin(or hemoglobin)is mixed with H2O2.
2. Anti-aging effect
Ergothioneine and its derivatives have the effect of reducing or even preventing protein glycation, thereby preventing age-related loss of skin elasticity, modifying and improving facial contours, and preventing or improving the appearance of cellulite.
3. Sun protection effect
In the ultraviolet absorption range, ergothioneine has an absorption wavelength similar to that of DNA, Which can minimize the formation of reactive oxygen species and protect cells from radiation damage. It can also avoid damage to the skin caused by ultraviolet radiation. Effective sunscreen ingredients.
4. Anti-inflammatory& Anti-acne
Inflammation is the body’s response when the skin is infected. Excessive ultraviolet radiation and excessive pressure are all causes of skin inflammation. Studies have shown that ergothioneine can play an anti-inflammatory effect in skin cells, and at the same time, combined with vitamin C will obtain more significant effects.
Application of the L-Ergothioneine:
1.Use as a unique antioxidant. Ergothionein is a highly protective, non-toxic, natural antioxidant that is not easily oxidized in water, which allows them to be present in concentrations up to mmol in certain tissues and stimulates the cells' natural antioxidant defense system.
2.Adds to cosmetics as a skin protectant. Ultraviolet UVA in sunlight can penetrate into the dermis of human skin, affecting the growth of epidermal cells, making the surface cells senile and causing premature skin aging, while ultraviolet UVB is easy to lead to the occurrence of skin cancer.
3.Application in ophthalmology. In recent years, ergothiamine has been found to play a key role in eye protection, so many researchers hope to develop an ophthalmic product to facilitate the development of eye surgery.
4.In the field of health products, it can be made into functional food and drinks, etc. In the field of cosmetics, it can be used for anti-aging, and can be made into sunscreen and other products.
