Long-term consumption of Tamogi-take mushrooms (Pleurotus cornucopiae), rich in ergothioneine (EGT), significantly improved heart and blood vessel function in aging mice. The study found reduced oxidative stress, lower inflammation, and enhanced antioxidant activity. Mice fed the mushrooms also showed better exercise tolerance and reduced signs of heart aging.
