The benefits and effects of ergothioneine:
Ergothioneine is a rare, naturally occurring chiral amino acid that serves as an important bioactive substance in living organisms. It possesses functions such as scavenging free radicals, detoxification, maintaining DNA biosynthesis, promoting normal cell growth, modulating cellular immunity, protecting against radiation, whitening skin, and combating aging. Recognized as a unique, multi-functional physiological cell protector, ergothioneine plays a particularly crucial role in antioxidant defense and energy regulation.
