Ergothioneine(EGT)

Ergothioneine(EGT) is a natural strong antioxidant that can prevent or limit free radical damage to the body, protect DNA and proteins from oxidative damage, and maintain cellular health. It has anti-inflammatory effects, prevents cardiovascular diseases, slows down skin aging, prevents UV damage, and delays aging.

The number of registered skincare products containing ERGOTHIONEINE(EGT) sulfur has maintained a rapid explosive growth, as of In June 2022, the number of registered cases of ergot sulfur has reached 6696! The market size of ergot sulfur increased year-on-year Growth rate of 203%! It is a “growth star” among effective skincare ingredients!

In 1909, Ergothioneine(EGT) was discovered as a cell activator;

In 2017, the European Union approved L-ergot sulfur as the latest generation of anti-aging agent due to its new food ingredient;

In August 2019, Ergothioneine(EGT) sulfur obtained GRAS certification from the FDA;

From 2021 to 2022, international brands containing Ergothioneine(EGT) sulfur have experienced rapid growth, including Est é e Lauder, Clinique, Elizabeth Arden, and Daike.

Description

Source: A naturally occurring amino acid derivative found in various dietary sources such as mushrooms, beans, and some meats.
Application and Function: Often included in dietary supplements for its potential antioxidant and cytoprotective properties, supporting overall health and well-being.
Health Data: Research suggests that Ergothioneine(EGT) may play a role in protecting cells from oxidative stress and inflammation.

Targeted anti-aging – Targeted mitochondria:
Ergothioneine(EGT) recognizes damaged cells through the OCTN-1 transporter protein, while healthy cells do not adhere to the OCTN-1 transporter protein. Damaged cells and inflammatory cells adhere to the transporter protein, which enters the mitochondria and nucleus through the transporter protein, repairing the cells.

Deep anti-aging – penetrating the nucleus:
Ergothioneine(EGT) is currently the only super anti-aging agent that can penetrate mitochondria and nuclei. Only by penetrating mitochondria and nuclei can it truly deeply repair cells and eliminate unhealthy cells;

Dr B.D.Paul from Hopkins University School of Medicine in the United States found that Ergothioneine(EGT) is the only long-acting natural antioxidant that enters mitochondria and cell nuclei. It can repair necrotic and inflammatory cells in a targeted manner by riding on the OCTN-1 transporter protein. In the natural biological cycle, Ergothioneine(EGT) sulfur can be transported to the main “lesion” of free radical production in cells – mitochondria, directly clearing reactive oxygen species and eliminating aging factors from the root. Maintaining normal mitochondrial function to achieve the goal of prolonging lifespan.

 

Skin: EGT protects skin cells from ultraviolet radiation, increases endogenous antioxidant levels through the Nrf2/ARE pathway to protect cells, and prevents mitochondrial DNA damage caused by ultraviolet radiation
Cardiovascular: One of the main potential mechanisms by which EGT benefits the cardiovascular system is by protecting the endothelium.
Eye: EGT protects corneal endothelial cells from hydrogen peroxide mediated oxidative stress. The retina is easily exposed to high levels of oxidative stress. OCTN-1 is highly expressed in human eyes, and high levels of EGT accumulate in eye tissues including the lens, retina, cornea, and retinal pigment epithelium.
Brain: EGT demonstrates neuroprotective effects on rats by increasing the clearance rate of A β in the neuroretina.
