Ginkgo - 60 Capsules, 100% Pure Leaf Extract

The Ginkgo tree is a living fossil, with fossils recognisably related to modern Ginkgo from the Permian, dating back 270 million years.

Ginkgo is believed to have nootropic properties, and is mainly used as memory and concentration enhancer, and anti-vertigo agent.

Ginkgo leaves contain flavonoid glycosides and terpenoids (ginkgolides, bilobalides) and have been used pharmaceutically. According to some studies, Ginkgo can significantly improve attention in healthy individuals. In one such study, the effect was almost immediate and reaches its peak in 2.5 hours after the intake.

Ginkgo is gaining recognition as a brain tonic that enhances memory because of its positive effects on the vascular system, especially in the cerebellum. Benefits of enhanced circulation in the brain include improved short and long-term memory, increased reaction time and improved mental clarity.

Ginkgo's effects on the circulatory system are beneficial in the treatment of eye and ear disorders. Ginkgo increases blood flow to the retina and can slow retinal deterioration resulting in an increase of visual acuity.
