The Ayurveda Lab ™- Kojic Acid
K. Saito discovered kojic acid in 1907 by extracting it from the koji mold (Aspergillus oryzae) during steamed rice fermentation, which is an important stage in traditional sake manufacture. Yabuta publicized the term "kojic acid" in 1913, elevating it from culinary tradition to scientific recognition. Originally thought to improve flavor and preservation in Japanese food, kojic acid's true brilliance lies in its molecular ability to inhibit tyrosinase, the enzyme responsible for melanin formation.
