  • Oxidative stress occurs when there is an imbalance between oxidants and antioxidants in the body. When this imbalance occurs, free radicals are released that alter DNA, proteins, and cholesterol and can trigger harmful reactions that affect cardiovascular health.
  • Oxidative stress is turns LDL cholesterol into its damaging form — oxidized LDL cholesterol. Over time, cumulative damage from oxidative stress of LDL cholesterol can contribute to heart and blood vessel disorders, including atherosclerosis, heart failure, heart attack, and stroke.
  • Nearly 74 million adults (31.7%) in the U.S. have high LDL-cholesterol, or “bad” cholesterol.
  • Ergothioneine is a super antioxidant that can protect against oxidative stress, and the body has a transport system specifically designed to deliver ergothioneine to areas of the body where stress is high and damage can occur.
  • For more than a century, scientists have known about the heart health benefits of ergothioneine but no one has been able to unlock the full potential of the  super antioxidant until now.
  • The human body does not produce ergothioneine and it can be difficult to obtain in your everyday diet.
  • Using breakthrough science, a daily nutritional supplement that contains the highest concentration of ergothioneine available today has been developed to help protect the heart from the damaging effects of oxidative stress.
