Ergothioneine is an amino acid your body cannot make on its own. It's found naturally in certain foods, particularly mushrooms and organ meats, and levels in the body tend to decline with age.

What makes it interesting is how the body handles it. Ergothioneine is absorbed in the small intestine and transported into cells via OCTN1, a highly selective transporter specific to this compound. Once inside cells, it acts as an antioxidant, donating electrons to neutralise free radicals and reactive oxygen species generated during normal cellular metabolism. Research into ergothioneine is active and growing, particularly around its role in ageing biology, though human evidence is still developing.

L-Ergothioneine by ProHealth Longevity delivers 25mg per capsule in a clean, single-ingredient formula. Simple to add to any daily routine.
