What actually is it?

This will pretty much amaze you - the Gingko tree species is the oldest living species of tree; records indicate that it goes back some 150-200 million years!!!!! It was first brought to Europe in the 1700's and has become a regularly prescribed drug in both Germany and France.

In research done in the last 30 years into the use of Ginkgo Bilboa in humans (some 300 studies have been done) it has been proven that Gingko has qualities that help ailments throughout the human body. As we speak, it is gaining recognition as brain tonic as it helps the enhance memory because of its positive effects on the vascular system. It is also used to treat vertigo, tinnitus (ringing in the ear) and a variety of neurological and circulatory disorders.

Uses in rats

MAY help ease symptoms of stroke or pituitary/brain tumours, but will NOT prevent any tumours from growing. It only increases the oxygen level in the brain, which may help decrease a few of the more skill-sided symptoms.

Dosages

Two-three drops in food (to hide taste) up to three times a day.
