Products Description
What is Ergothioneine?
Ergothioneine is a natural antioxidant that can protect cells in the human body and is an important active substance in the body. Natural antioxidants are safe and non-toxic, and have become a research hotspot. As a natural antioxidant, ergothioneine has entered people's field of vision. It has many physiological functions such as scavenging free radicals, detoxifying, maintaining DNA biosynthesis, normal cell growth and cellular immunity.

Products Efficacy
The efficacy of ergothioneine
● Whitening
Ergothioneine is a natural antioxidant that is highly protective to cells, non-toxic, and is not easily oxidized in water, which makes their concentration in certain tissues reach 7 or 1-C and stimulates the natural activity of cells. Antioxidant defense system, which can hinder the formation of pigment and calm, and whiten the skin.
● Anti-aging
Efficient anti-oxidation, anti-aging. Ergothioneine and its derivatives can reduce or even prevent protein glycation, thereby preventing age-related loss of skin elasticity, modifying and improving facial contours, and preventing or improving the appearance of cellulite.
● Sun protection
In the ultraviolet absorption range, ergothioneine has an absorption wavelength similar to that of DNA, with a molar extinction coefficient of 1.04M-1 cm-1 and max257, which can minimize the formation of active oxygen and protect cells from radiation damage, ergothioneine thus acts as a physiological filter for UV rays. Existing many literatures show that ergothioneine can avoid the damage that ultraviolet radiation produces to the skin, is a kind of very effective sunscreen composition.

● anti-inflammatory, acne
Inflammation is the body's response when the skin becomes infected. Excessive UV exposure and stress are both triggers of skin inflammation. Studies have shown that ergothioneine can play an anti-inflammatory role in skin cells, and at the same time, it will be more effective when combined with vitamin C. The combination of idebenne and ergothioneine can reduce skin inflammation and photodamage caused by ultraviolet rays.
