Gingko Biloba

[Sal Ame]

What is good for? Is it bad for health?

Ginko Biloba is a species of tree that can grow in this country though it is not a native species . It is a bit Prehistoric looking in appearance so it looks different to most normal trees . When it's transformed in to tablet form it's supposed to improve the blood flow to the brain it sounds like a very general statement but what it actually means is it improves memory and mental awareness and it has been alledged that it reduces the chances of getting Senile dementia . These may all be bold statements but there must be some substance in the claims as the tree has been around and it's healing properties have been used for thousands of years. Its probably best to use some Herbalist website to get the best information on it as many such treatments can cause problems if not taken properly

Gingko biloba is also useful for the prevention of altitude sickness, though for it to work you need to start taking it 5 days before ascending. While it does seem to work in scientific trials, no one is quite sure how.
