Gingko Biloba is the best selling herbal product in the western world. It is an extract from the green leaves of the Ginkgo tree which is native to Asia, however, it is now grown worldwide. In Asia, ginkgo tree extracts have been used for over 5,000 years to treat promote normal cardiovascular and pulmonary/lung functioning. Recently, American medical researchers have begun studying ginkgo. There are now over three dozen studies looking at the effects of ginkgo on the human body.
Ginkgo's most powerful effect is on the circulatory system. Ginkgo flavenoids directly dilate the smallest segment of the circulating system, the micro-capillaries, which increase both blood circulation and oxygen levels in the brain as well as in other critical organ tissues. Ginkgo also prevents platelet aggregation or clumping inside the arterial walls. This increases arterial wall strength and flexibility and decreases the opportunity for the formation of arterioscleratic plaque. Since ginkgo increases oxygen flow to the brain and enhances the brain's uptake and utilization of glucose, it is also being researched for its role in senility and forgetfulness and its role in improving alertness, memory and mental performance.
Aside from these critical, high profile circulatory effects, ginkgo may also increase the body's ability to produce the universal energy molecule adenosine triphosphate (ATP). This can in turn, decrease fatigue and listlessness.
Ginkgo is also known as a highly important anti-oxidant shown to have a special affinity for overcoming the superoxide radicals. Due to its antioxidant role, ginkgo can increase cellular longevity, promote normal pulmonary functions, provide membrane stability, and support ocular structural integrity.
