Description

Report Overview

L-ergothioneine is a good source of amino acid, which contains a high amount of sulfur mainly found in cyanobacteria, actinobacteria, and fungi. L-ergothioneine is also found in red and black beans, mushrooms, garlic, oat bran, liver, kidney and crabs. L-ergothioneine is also found in human skin, eye lens, erythrocytes and semen.

The l-ergothioneine market is expected to witness a huge demand in the forecast period due to its health benefits. L-ergothioneine is useful in the prevention of cataracts, liver damage, Alzheimer’s, heart attacks and diabetes. L-ergothioneine also prevents skin aging, wrinkles and sun damage (damage caused by UV rays exposure).

Since its discovery, the unique properties of the naturally occurring amino acid, L-ergothioneine (EGT; 2-mercaptohistidine trimethylbetaine), have intrigued researchers for more than a century. This widely distributed thione is only known to be synthesized by non-yeast fungi, mycobacteria and cyanobacteria but accumulates in higher organisms at up to millimolar levels via an organic cation transporter (OCTN1). The physiological role of EGT has yet to be established. Due to the unique structure and low content of L-ergothioneinet, the synthesis and extraction of L-ergothioneine is very difficult. Recently, L-ergothioneine has just begun commercial production.

The global Ergothioneine (EGT) market size was valued at USD 51.62 million in 2024 and is anticipated to grow to USD 70.31 million by 2025, reaching USD 832.55 million by 2033, with an impressive CAGR of 36.2% during the forecast period from 2025 to 2033.
