Ginkgo biloba is the oldest known living tree species with fossils dating back 270 million years. It literally grew when dinosaurs roamed the earth, making it truly a living fossil.

You can now find these extraordinarily hardy trees growing in cities throughout the world. They are resistant to disease, insects, and modern day air pollution.

Some living specimens are over 2,500 years old. A handful of ginkgos were at the Hiroshima atomic bomb blast epicenter and they survived. 

Amazingly, these trees are still alive today.

Ginkgo Biloba:

Gingko is antispasmodic and antiinflammatory. It helps the smooth muscles in the arteries to maintain the correct amount of constriction and dilation. This helps to increase blood flow to the central nervous system and brain. It also promotes peripheral circulation and has a protective effect on nerve cells. Some research has found that Ginkgo can improve concentration, short-term memory, long-term memory, absentmindedness, confusion, and fatigue. It has also been found to improve attention, learning, and memory.

Tinnitus and Hearing Aid

Ginkgo leaf have been used in clinical trials for tinnitus, and cognitive and cardiovascular disorders, at daily doses of 60 mg to 450 mg. Read this journal 

It is also a powerful antioxidant. Simultaneous use of soft-laser for exposure to the cochlea and administration of Ginkgo biloba extract for 4 weeks on a 20-50% of patients has been reported to be useful read here .  

However, please bear in mind that Ginkgo Biloba is slow acting and you will need to take it for a period of 12 weeks before noticing any significant improvement. Effects may not be observed for up to 12 weeks, so therapy should continue for at least that long.

Actually, the combination of Ginkgo-soft-laser was very effective in the treatment of chronic tinnitus. Ginkgo provided better oxygen and laser directly operated on flavoproteins to activate repair mechanisms.

Ginkgo-soft-laser reduced the severity of tinnitus in some cases and concluded that the combination of softlaser and Ginkgo can be useful in some patients with severe tinnitus

Moreover, Ginkgo biloba is clinically used for the treatment of inner ear disorders such as hearing loss, dizziness, and tinnitus. This herb is widely used to treat tinnitus in European countries and elsewhere. Read this 

ADHD and Autism

Ginkgo has been found to significantly improve short term memory in healthy adults. Ginkgo reduces ADHD and Autism symptoms in children and teens.

For those diagnosed with autism, dementia or Alzheimer’s, ginkgo looks very promising for improving memory and day-to-day quality of life.

For Autistic children; it has been shown to Increase the ability to focus on complex tasks for an extended amount of time. Helps the brain retain and process information. Helps learning and memory and day-to-day activities as well as Social behavior and aggression.

Ginkgo biloba is one of the most effective plants with an old history of applications in neuropsychological disorders which recently is used for autism. 

Anxiety and Stress 

Ginkgo extract can reduce symptoms of anxiety and stress by lowering levels of the stress hormone cortisol.

Hemorrhoids

Ginkgo biloba may exert its beneficial effects in hemorrhoids by its anti-inflammatory and venoprotective activity

Varicose and Spider Veins

Gotu Kola is rich in bioflavonoids —which  is known to strengthen tissues that make up vein walls. It is also believed to improve circulation, which is thought to be an underlying problem for those with spider veins. 

Laboratory studies have shown that ginkgo improves blood circulation by opening up blood vessels and making blood less sticky. It is also an antioxidant. For those reasons, ginkgo may improve vein and eye health

Blood Circulation 

Gingko is antispasmodic and antiinflammatory. It helps the smooth muscles in the arteries to maintain the correct amount of constriction and dilation. This helps to increase blood flow to the central nervous system and brain. It also promotes peripheral circulation and has a protective effect on nerve cells.

Gingko biloba extract is known to increases blood circulation to the eyes. Recent studies show that Ginkgo biloba extract, taken long term, reduces vision loss and cataracts. 

Sickle Cell Disease

Recent research has explored its effects on sickle cell disease (SCD), a genetic disorder characterized by abnormal hemoglobin leading to distorted red blood cells and various complications.

Research Findings:
1. Antioxidant Effects: A study published in the Brazilian Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences investigated the impact of a standardized Ginkgo biloba extract (EGb 761) on erythrocytes from SCD patients. The findings indicated that EGb 761 reduced oxidative stress markers in these cells, suggesting a protective effect against oxidative damage.

2. Reduction in Vaso-Occlusive Crises: An observational cohort study evaluated the effectiveness of Ginkgo biloba extract in reducing vaso-occlusive crises among SCD patients. The results demonstrated a statistically significant decrease in the frequency of these crises in patients receiving Ginkgo biloba derivatives compared to those receiving only symptomatic treatment.

Brain Tonic 

 Some research has found that Ginkgo can improve concentration, short-term memory, long-term memory, absentmindedness, confusion, and fatigue. It has also been found to improve attention, learning, and memory.
