Annatto-E™ GG - 60 Softgels
Designs For Health Annatto-E™ GG
Annatto-E™ GG is a combination of two ingredients: 150 mg of annatto tocotrienols, a unique tocopherol-free, tocotrienols-only product, featuring tocotrienols sourced from the annatto tree; and 150 mg of geranylgeraniol (GG), a compound that plays critical roles in numerous biological processes affecting organs and tissues throughout the body. The tocotrienols in this product are provided as DeltaGold®, a patented tocotrienol formula from American River Nutrition, and geranylgeraniol is present as GG-Gold™, a patented form of GG extracted from annatto seeds.
Ingredients
| Serving Size: 1 Softgel | Amount/Serving |
| Vitamin E Isomers (as DeltaGold® delta and gamma tocotrienols) | 150 mg |
| Trans-Geranylgeraniol (as GG-Gold®) | 150 mg |
Other Ingredients: Medium chain triglycerides, softel ingredients (bovine gelatin, glyerine, purified water).
Gluten Free. Dairy Free. Soy Free. Non-GMO.
Suggested Use
Take 1 softgel per day or as directed by your health-care practitioner.
Note: For individuals who may benefit from higher amounts of either tocotrienols or geranylgeraniol, consider using additional supplementation with Designs for Health’s Annatto-E™ 150, Annatto-E™ 300 (150 and 300 mg tocotrienols, respectively), Annatto-E™ Synergy (125 mg tocotrienols plus black cumin seed oil), and/or Annatto-GG™ 150 (150 mg geranylgeraniol).

Annatto-sourced Tocotrienols and Geranylgeraniol
The annatto tree, native to Latin America, is the source for the tocotrienols and geranylgeraniol in this product. (Annatto seeds are used as a natural coloring in bright red-orange foods, and annatto is known as “the lipstick tree” because of this bold pigment.)
Tocotrienols (T3) are components of the vitamin E complex that have distinct biochemical properties not observed with the more commonly known tocopherol fractions, which are used in most commercial supplements. Annatto is the richest known source of naturally occurring T3 and is virtually free of tocopherols, containing nearly 100% T3. Tocotrienols have shown impressive effects in supporting cardiovascular health, including supporting healthy cholesterol and triglyceride levels and promoting a healthy inflammatory response. Owing to their positive influence on lipids (fats in the blood), T3 may be beneficial for those with a buildup of fat in the liver, as well as those who need help maintaining normal blood sugar and insulin levels. New research also suggests tocotrienols may be useful for supporting strong, healthy bones.
Geranylgeraniol (GG) is found in annatto as well as flaxseeds, sunflower and olive oils and some medicinal herbs. It is also synthesized internally in humans but this production declines naturally during aging and may not always be adequate to support the body’s needs. Additionally, synthesis of GG is inhibited by use of certain pharmaceutical drugs commonly prescribed for the aging population (such as those used to treat high cholesterol and osteoporosis), so supplementation may be beneficial for these individuals.
GG is needed for constructing cell membranes, producing energy in mitochondria, supporting the production of hormones (such as testosterone), proper calcium trafficking (depositing calcium in the bones and teeth and keeping it out of other tissues, such as blood vessels and joints), and more. A natural loss of muscle mass and bone density is common in older individuals and has significant negative impacts on mobility, independence and overall quality of life. Even though GG isn’t an amino acid (the building blocks for proteins), it is needed for protein synthesis and modification—helping to build proteins and have them perform their functions efficiently.
