Function
Antioxidant effect: Ergothioneine is a powerful antioxidant that neutralizes free radicals and reduces oxidative stress-induced cell damage. This property makes it important in protecting cells and tissues.
Cell Protection: Research suggests that ergothioneine can protect cells from environmental stress, toxins, and inflammation, and may play a role in neuroprotection and cardiovascular health.
Anti-inflammatory effect: Ergothioneine may have anti-inflammatory properties that may help reduce chronic inflammation, which is associated with the development of several chronic diseases, such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes.
Supports the Immune System: Some research suggests that ergothioneine may help boost the function of the immune system, helping the body fight off infection and disease.
Promote Skin Health: Ergothioneine is widely used in skin care products for its antioxidant and moisturizing properties, which may help improve the appearance and health of the skin.
Neuroprotection: Preliminary research suggests that ergothioneine may have protective effects on the nervous system and may help reduce the risk of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease.
Applications
Food and nutritional supplements:
Ergothioneine, as a natural antioxidant, is often added to foods and nutritional supplements to improve the antioxidant capacity of the product and extend its shelf life. It can help protect cells from oxidative damage and promote overall health.
Skin Care Products and Cosmetics:
In skin care products, ergothioneine is used as an antioxidant ingredient to help protect against environmental stressors and free radical damage to the skin. It can improve skin moisturization, reduce inflammation, and may promote skin repair and regeneration.
Medical field:
Ergothioneine has shown potential for neuroprotection in some studies and may be used to treat neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Its antioxidant properties have also made it of interest in research on chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes.
Sports Nutrition:
In sports nutrition products, ergothioneine may be used as an antioxidant to help athletes protect against exercise-induced oxidative stress, promote recovery and enhance athletic performance.
Agriculture and Plant Protection:
Ergothioneine also plays an important role in plants and may be used to improve plant resistance, helping plants resist environmental stress and disease.
