Blue California ingredients: Signs of Healthy Aging Found in Ergothioneine Telomere Study
RANCHO SANTA MARGARITA, Calif., Dec. 10, 2020studypublished in the
Journal of Dietary Supplements, demonstrated Blue California s ErgoActive ergothioneine helped to preserve telomere length and reduced the rate of telomere shortening under oxidative stress.
The
in vitro study is the first time ergothioneine has been studied for its effect on telomere length. Blue California provided its ErgoActive ergothioneine, which is produced by a proprietary fermentation process. Our results suggest that ergothioneine as part of a healthy diet could potentially mitigate the negative effects of oxidative stress and support healthy aging by helping to preserve telomere length and reduce the rate of shortening, said Chief Science Officer, Dr. Priscilla Samuel.
