GG Pure

How long will it take to feel the benefits of GG?

Is it safe to take GG with my statin?

This was the main factor in developing this product. It should not affect the ability of your statin to lower cholesterol. However, you should always consult your doctor prior to starting this supplement and ensure that there is a 2 – 3 hour gap between your prescription medication and GG Pure.

Will GG help with cholesterol?

GG will not help with your cholesterol as it is downstream in the biochemical (mevalonate) pathway.

Can I take GG if I have a diagnosed heart condition?

Our view is a resounding yes. BUT, when you have any condition you should get your Doctors OK before commencing on any supplement regimen.

Can I take GG if I have stents?

There is no evidence to suggest taking a gg supplement would cause a problem for someone with stents. However, you should consult your doctor prior to starting GG.

Why is there a batch-to-batch color variation in GG Pure Capsules?

Geranylgeraniol (GG) - Xtendlife uses a multi-patented ingredient called GG-Gold™. It is made in a GMP facility in Massachusetts USA, using a clean, physical extraction process from the Annatto plant.

As the material is derived from a natural source, seasonal as well as batch-to-batch color variation is normal. The difference in color has no impact on the quality or efficacy. The normal color range is off-white to light yellow/gold powder. There are no chemicals used during extraction. Every batch of GG-Gold™ is tested by Xtendlife before being used in GG PURE to ensure the highest level of safety & quality.

Are these vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free?

Yes GG is derived from the Annatto plant. The capsule is derived from plant cellulose. 

Is it safe to take GG while pregnant or breastfeeding?

No, we do not recommend this. The only product we recommend during this time is our Omega 3/DHA fish oil, which has valuable properties to support both the health of the mother and baby. 
 
Fish oil is highly recommended by many medical professionals during pregnancy and breastfeeding to help support infant brain development, as well as systemic organ growth. It can also play a valuable role in supporting the post-natal mood and brain function of the mother. As the baby draws from the mother's precious stores of DHA, they can easily become depleted, therefore supporting levels with a supplement such as Omega 3/DHA fish oil is very wise.
