that has news, with fossil records dating back more than 250 million years ago. For a time it was considered extinct, but rediscovered in Japan in the seventeenth century. Seeds were taken to Europe and later to North America and today you can find ginkgo biloba trees worldwide.
The ginkgo biloba was the first plant
to sprout after the destruction caused by the atomic bomb in Hiroshima, Japan. They are deciduous trees, that lose all their leaves in winter and reach a height of 20-35m.
Now a days Ginkgo biloba is one of
the most commercialized medicinal plants in the world !
The drugs made from this plant can
be used to: Improve blood flow to tissues and organs; Fight cell damage by free radicals, acting as a natural antioxidant;
Improve memory; Inhibits the proliferation of aggressive breast tumors; Reduces ringing and improves sense of balance;
But their therapeutic efficacy, in
general, don't have scientific basis ! Many people have reported beneficial effects arising from alternative formulations. But would they be as effective as manufactured pills ?
The answer is NO !
To obtain the same amount of a
single tablet of 120 mg, you need 20 capsules of 200 mg of ground powder.
Now, if you liked this medicine and
want to buy one, feel free, because that does not grab me, nor with cornflakes.
