Believed to be one of the most ancient species of trees still in existence, Ginkgo biloba trees can live as long as 1000 years. The tree’s leaves are used for medical treatment. The trees are grown in Korea, China, southern France, and in the eastern and southern United States.
Ginkgo Biloba is most commonly used to treat the elderly for disorientation, depression, memory loss, headaches, tinnitus, and vertigo because of its positive effects as a circulatory aid. It is thought to help increase blood flow to the brain, which makes it a possible treatment for cerebral insufficiency.
Those suffering from other circulation problems, such as leg cramps, have found relief from using Ginkgo Biloba. Although there are no conclusive studies, Ginkgo’s antioxidant effects may protect the cardiovascular the central nervous system from the effects of aging such as mental deterioration. Ginkgo is thought to also restrain high blood pressure.
Dosage and Administration
Scientific research has not been conducted using ginkgo in children; therefore no dosages are suggested for children.
Adults can 120 mg daily, divided into 2-3 doses. Extract used should be standardized to 25% flavone glycosides. Results in adults begin to be seen after using ginkgo for 4-6 weeks. Big changes in health may take up to six months of use before being noticed.
