Description :
Ginkgo Biloba – Part used : Leaves
Remedy for the circulatory system
Ginkgo biloba is a resilient Asian tree, a survivor from previous eras, often called a “living fossil”.
It is thought that its medicinal properties have been known for thousands of years.
Ginkgo leaves, because of the presence of flavones, leucoanthocyanins, and catechols, have a vasodilator action on peripheral circulation and strengthen the venous and capillary system.
Ginkgo can be successful on blood vessel disorders such as arteritis, varicose veins, piles, and troubles related to deficient cerebral circulation such as memory losses of the elderly, and alzheimer.
Ginkgo contains reducing agents that counteract free radicals (those chemical intermediates of metabolism involved in the ageing process).
