Longevity Superfoods Ginkgo Biloba Extract, 4 oz
Ginkgo Biloba Extract, from the leaves of the Ginkgo biloba tree, has been shown through centuries of use and many scientific studies to be a free radical scavenger and antioxidant that supports the body's natural systems. For nearly 2800 years the Chinese have used extracts from the ginkgo biloba tree as natural medicine to treat a variety of conditions. Ginkgo contains numerous antioxidants such as the proanthocyanidins, flavonoids, that counteract free-radical activity.
Ginkgo is gaining recognition as a brain tonic that enhances memory because of its positive effects on the vascular system, especially in the cerebellum. Ginkgo works as a blood thinner to increase blood flow to the brain and blood vessels that supply organ systems. It also increases metabolism efficiency and boosts oxygen levels in the brain which uses twenty percent of the body's total oxygen.
Health benefits of Ginkgo may include improved short and long term memory, increased reaction time and improved mental clarity. A variety of imbalances and deterioration in the brain and body can be alleviated by incorporating ginkgo into your daily regimen.
While the leaves are used in most standardized treatments, the seeds of Ginkgo are said to possibly contain anti-cancer properties and are sedative and astringent.
Most Ginkgo extracts inhibit a common allergen in the body, known as platelet activity factor (PAF). PAF production, which derives from poor food choices and physical stress, can lead to cardiovascular disease, brain damage, hearing disorders and other immune and inflammatory diseases.
It has also been confirmed that ginkgo increases blood flow to the retina, while also slowing retinal deterioration. Ginkgo may also help control the conversion of cholesterol to plaque and aid in the relaxation of constricted blood vessels.
Although Ginkgo has been linked to the relief of several diseases it is taken by a large number of people seeking general health benefits such as relief of tension and anxiety, elevated mood and restored energy.
