L-Ergothioneine (EGT) is a food-grade unique sulfur-containing amino acid antioxidant produced by fungi and bacteria, recognised as a 'longevity vitamin' that accumulates in mitochondria.We supply bulk Ergothioneine sourced from leading China manufacturers, available in powder form for global food and beverage producers. Our Ergothioneine is widely used in longevity supplements, mitochondrial products, beauty supplements, topical anti-aging cosmetics and cognitive-health formulations.
L-Ergothioneine is produced by fermentation (Aspergillus, mushroom cultures) or synthesis.
It delivers a unique antioxidant that is actively transported into cells via a dedicated transporter (OCTN1) and accumulates in mitochondria, erythrocytes and skin. It scavenges reactive oxygen species, protects cellular DNA, and is studied for longevity, cognitive health, skin protection and oxidative-stress-related conditions.
