Delighted to have the learned and inspirational Dr. Barrie Tan back on the podcast! Last year we had a great conversation on the true story of Vitamin E, and explained the importance of Tocotrienols versus Tocopherol. This time Dr. Tan is bristling with his recent discoveries, and will reveal one of our body's crucial components - Geranylgeraniol (GG). This will be important for anyone who wants to optimise their heart, muscle, neurological and general health - but also of great interest to those who feel they need to continue cholesterol-lowering treatments. Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater - get informed!
If you wish, the formulation is available worldwide from here - use code "IvorGG15" for the 15% discount : https://www.xtend-life.com/products/gg-pure

0:00.0 | Hey all, today's episode is fascinating one. We bring back Dr. Barry Tan, an extraordinary researcher. |
0:06.8 | And we're going to be talking about a new compound discovered, essentially, GG. And it's in the mevalinate pathway, the cholesterol synthesis pathway. |
0:17.0 | And it has huge implications for metabolic health, muscle, muscle health and many other parts of our physiology. |
0:23.6 | It also links into the K2 synthesis pathway and it also is very much part of the challenge with certain drug classes |
0:33.6 | that disrupt this mevalinate cholesterol pathway. So quite technical in places, but I think |
0:40.4 | Dr. Tan does a great job of bringing us through it. And just to let you know, a disclosure, at the end of |
0:46.9 | this podcast, I will have a special offer. This compound is now being produced by my buddy, Warren, |
0:56.4 | in Extend Life, New Zealand. |
1:00.7 | So I do have a discount code for it and I'll just let people know that up front. |
1:04.4 | And you'll see all the detail of that at the end of the podcast. |
1:06.3 | So enjoy. |
1:13.5 | Welcome to the Fat Emperor podcast. I'm your host, Ivor Cummins. |
1:20.0 | Hey guys, we had a very popular podcast sometime back with Dr. Barry Tan, a lovely gentleman of extraordinary knowledge and research. And he did a PhD in New Zealand. He was a professor |
1:26.4 | at the University of Massachusetts, I think. |
1:28.3 | But today we're going to talk about GG. |
1:31.3 | And it's a compound that could have great importance, an endogenous compound. |
1:36.3 | And it follows on from Dr. Barry's work on Tocytanols, which we talked about last time. |
1:42.3 | So great to see again at Dr. Tan. |
1:46.6 | Thank you. Ivo, this is a pleasure. Thank you. And this is a pleasure to come back on. |
1:52.9 | And I know your audience is far and wide. And hopefully this will be a stunning addition to what |
2:00.1 | we already know about the unusual vitamin E, Toko Trieno, we spoke about some time ago last year. |
2:07.9 | Yeah, absolutely. And it's great to be back. And this compound I was not familiar with, and I'm still not really. I might get you to pronounce it. I know it's GG, but we've got the correct pronunciation. |
