Healthy Aging is Redefining Wellness

As populations age, health-minded consumers are looking for more than just daily multivitamins – they want targeted solutions that support healthspan, resilience, and cognitive vitality. Today, up to 60% of consumers across key markets say “healthy aging” is a “top” or “very important” priority, encompassing everything from cognitive function to independence and energy longevity

The healthy aging supplement market is experiencing robust growth, projected to expand from $1.53billion in 2024 to $2.2billion by 2029 at a 7.5% CAGR. Meanwhile, the broader longevity market, which includes preventative and performance-enhancing solutions, is expected to surge from approximately $21billion in 2024 to $63billion by 2035, growing at over 10% annually

Consumers increasingly value ingredients that go beyond “just vitamins,” expecting products with clinically researched antioxidant protection, mitochondrial support, cellular health, and cognitive longevity.

Why ErgoActive® Matters

Not all ergothioneine is created equal. As interest in this powerful longevity nutrient grows, brands are increasingly pressured to choose low-cost generic sources that may not meet the same standards of quality, purity, or science-backed validation.

ErgoActive® stands apart as the branded ergothioneine with a proven commitment to innovation, research, and quality assurance
