Geranylgeraniol (GG) is a naturally produced compound that helps regulate memory, metabolism, inflammation, and cellular repair, but your body makes less of it as you age
Researchers found that GG supports important cellular signaling systems that help brain cells communicate, form memories and adapt to everyday stress
Low GG levels are linked to many of the same biological changes seen in aging, including declining cellular energy, insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, and impaired tissue repair
In laboratory research, GG's metabolite, geranylgeranoic acid (GGA), has been shown to interfere with key survival mechanisms inside certain cancer cells — early findings that some researchers describe as a potential built-in check on uncontrolled cell growth
Supporting the mevalonate pathway through nutrient-dense foods, regular sunlight exposure, movement, avoidance of ultraprocessed foods, and, for some people, targeted GG supplementation, may help support the cellular systems involved in healthy aging
