Ergothioneine is an amino acid that’s widely distributed throughout your body, but levels have been shown to decline as we age. Your body can’t produce it, so you must get it through your diet—it’s found in a variety of food sources, but with the highest concentrations in certain types of mushrooms.

Why Should I Supplement With Essential Youth L-Ergothioneine?

In today's world, you don't have to be young to be youthful. With regular exercise and the proper nutrition you can fight against aging head on. And to help you on your quest, we created Essential Youth L-Ergothioneine. 

Longevity and telomere support

Ergothioneine has been shown to delay telomere shortening due to oxidative stress. Why would you want to delay telomeres from shortening? Your telomeres are like protective caps at the end of your chromosomes. As time goes by, these telomeres shorten naturally, in step with your aging process. In a preclinical study, L-ergothioneine had a protective effect on telomere length and slowed the rate of telomere shortening under oxidative stress conditions.

Brain and vision health

Low levels of ergothioneine in older adults have been linked with cognitive decline. In preclinical studies, ergothioneine showed beneficial neuroprotective properties from oxidative stress, supporting overall cognitive health.

The cell-protecting properties of ergothioneine have also been linked to vision health.

So are you ready to fight back against aging? Defy your age with Essential Youth L-Ergothioneine from Life Extension.

Runs small
Size: 8.5, Color: Sandstorm
This shoe is super cute and comfy. I usually wear an 8 or an 8½. I ordered the 8½, but it was too small, so I had to send it back. I reordered a 9, and it fit perfectly.

Love love these
Size: 7, Color: Black
Totally love these. I found them to run a bit short. I ordered a 6 1/2 (my normal size) - had to return them for a 7. But I love them.

Nice Bags Lots of Colors
Color: Black, Size: Standard 15.6 Inch
This was a great carry on bag for me. The size is perfect and has lots of pockets. The material is very nice and durable and I got black but it is still a nice color black with many other colors to Choose from. I brought it to London and was very happy with its functionality. It does get a little heavy when lots of things are in it but I am not used to wearing a backpack. It does have a loop to slide onto your carrying on luggage handle as well.
