What is Ergothioneine ?
Ergothioneine, also known as Ergo or EGT, is a unique natural amino acid with potent antioxidant properties. Ergothioneine cannot be synthesized by the human body and must be obtained through diet.
It acts as a multifunctional cellular physiological protectant, with various physiological functions such as scavenging free radicals, detoxifying, maintaining DNA biosynthesis, ensuring normal cell growth, and supporting cellular immunity.
Ergothioneine has been shown to have antioxidant and anti-aging mechanisms. It can activate the KEAP1-NRF2 signaling pathway, enhancing the expression of antioxidant genes and reducing damage to biomolecules caused by oxidative stress factors.
Health Benefits
Antioxidant Properties: Ergothioneine scavenges free radicals in the body, protecting cells from damage caused by oxidative stress. This helps delay the aging process, as oxidative stress is considered a key factor in cellular aging and various diseases.
Anti-Aging Effects: Ergothioneine not only acts directly as an antioxidant but also as a regulator of the body's antioxidant system. By activating specific signaling pathways, it helps reduce oxidative damage to biological macromolecules.
Prevention of Age-Related Diseases: Ergothioneine may help alleviate chronic age-related diseases such as metabolic syndrome, cognitive impairment, dementia, and depression.
Healthy Aging: Ergothioneine is positively correlated with healthy aging and longevity. Adequate intake of Ergothioneine may contribute to a healthier aging process.
Applications
Food and Beverages: Ergothioneine has potential applications as a nutritional enhancer or functional ingredient in food products. However, its specific use in the food industry has not yet been widely commercialized.
Cosmetics: Due to its antioxidant, anti-aging, and anti-UV properties, Ergothioneine is gaining attention in the cosmetics industry.
Pharmaceutical Industry: Its potential applications in the pharmaceutical industry are also being explored, particularly in the context of antioxidants and anti-aging treatments.
