Blue California Presents New Clinical Findings on Ergothioneine at NUTRITION 2024

Linda ASN

We are excited to share that Dr. Linda May-Zhang recently presented groundbreaking clinical results at the American Society for Nutrition’s NUTRITION 2024 conference in Chicago. This study, sponsored by Blue California Ingredients and conducted by CSIRO, explores the effects of the mushroom nutrient Ergothioneine on cognitive function, memory, sleep, and other critical health outcomes.

This human clinical trial seeks to answer a vital question: Can ergothioneine supplementation enhance cognitive function in healthy older adults? The study builds on earlier research that linked mushroom consumption and estimated ergothioneine intake with age-related cognitive health.

Stay tuned for the full manuscript, where we will dive deeper into these exciting findings.
