Mega L-Ergothioneine
A must-have for your healthy aging regimen! L-ergothioneine is in almost all cells and tissues in the body, but levels decline with age. Unfortunately, we cannot make this amino acid on our own, and dietary sources may not be sufficient. That’s why Life Extension created Mega L-Ergothioneine. This formula helps protect cells from the effects of free radical activity and oxidation with 25 mg of L-ergothioneine.
Product Details
Ergothioneine is an amino acid that’s widely distributed throughout your body, but levels have been shown to decline as we age.1 Your body can’t produce it, so you must get it through your diet. It’s found in a variety of food sources, but with the highest concentrations in certain types of mushrooms.
- Oxidative stress and aging: Oxidative stress affects nearly every bodily system, especially as we age.2 Because of its antioxidant and cell-protective properties, ergothioneine is considered a promising nutrient when it comes to developing both nutritional and lifestyle strategies to promote healthy aging in adults.
- Potential health benefits: Observational studies suggest that healthy blood ergothioneine levels may be linked to overall health, cognitive function, cardiovascular support and healthy aging, through several potential biological mechanisms.
