    Muscle loss due to aging is a major contributor to loss of independence among the aging population. Diminished production of GG in the body, due to age-related reasons, may lead to a range of muscular conditions. Replenishing the GG exogenously using supplements may restore muscle health.

    CoQ10 (coenzyme Q10, also known as ubiquinol) is well-known to improve the oxidative defenses inside the body. Geranylgeraniol is a building block to restore normal CoQ10 levels and promote mitochondrial function.

GG-Essential is a highly advanced health supplement that has Annatto plant-derived pure Geranylgeraniol (GG). It is a revolutionary product that contains 150 mg of raw GG molecules.  

GG is an endogenous compound made in the human
body by the same mevalonate biochemical pathway that synthesizes cholesterol, vitamin K2, and Ubiquinol (active CoQ10). GG occurs naturally in various foods,
but the majority is synthesized endogenously. It supports muscle health, and natural CoQ10 synthesis.

Production of GG declines naturally during aging.
By replenishing its natural levels, GG can help reduce the risk of age-related physical decline, maintain structural support for the body and promote healthy
muscle strength and function.

Recommended Dosage

  • Take one GG-Essential softgel per day with a meal or as directed by your healthcare provider.
  • Ideally, it is consumed with meals, as it is a lipid-soluble supplement.

*Our products are not a substitute for any prescription medications, nor do we claim to cure any medical condition.

*We recommend that you consult your health practitioner before starting any new supplements, especially if you are pregnant, lactating, or on any prescription medications.

Q. What is GG?

GG is short for Geranylgeraniol, a compound that is generated by the human body through the mevalonate pathway (a biochemical pathway that helps make cholesterol, vitamin K2, and ubiquinol (active CoQ10)). GG occurs naturally in various foods, but most are synthesized inside the body. GG is an essential building block that supports muscle health and CoQ10 synthesis. Production of GG declines naturally during aging. By replenishing natural levels, GG can help reduce the risk of age-related physical decline, and may promote healthy muscle strength and function.

Q. What is Annatto?

The scientific name of Annatto is Bixa orellana. It is a tropical plant having unique traditional medicinal benefits. Fun fact: The Annatto plant is also known as the ‘lipstick plant’ due to its common use as a natural food colorant in many foods across the world. Due to its extraordinary medicinal properties, it has been in use since ancient times. In recent decades, Annatto was discovered by Dr. Barrie Tan, an expert on Vitamin E. It is being used to secure pure isomeric forms of Vitamin E, Delta Tocotrienol, and Gamma Tocotrienol isomers. It does not contain any mixed tocopherols which enhance its antioxidant properties. The Eannatto ‘Deltagold’ Tocotrienols are sourced from the Annatto plant using advanced extraction techniques that do not use any synthetic chemicals, petrochemicals, or solvents, which may be commonly used in other extraction techniques. Most importantly, the discovery of this plant’s extraordinary properties by Dr. Barrie Tan has now made it possible for us to have Eannatto ‘Deltagold’ Tocotrienols and supplementation for Geranylgeraniol (GG) as GG-Essential.

Q. How is GG extracted?

GG is extracted from the Annatto plant using a solvent and chemical-free technology extraction process innovated by Dr. Barrie Tan, who has been awarded a patent, GG-GoldTM.
