Dear friend, dear friend,
A few days ago, I came across a Chinese study where ginkgo biloba was tried on patients recovering from a stroke (1).
Strokes or brain attacks are the sudden loss of one or more brain functions(2).
They are often linked to the appearance of a clot which blocks a cerebral artery(2).
The brain is then no longer irrigated with blood as it should be(2).
An accelerated return of cognitive functions
In this study, hospitalized patients were put on a drip.
They were administered a substance containing active ingredients extracted from ginkgo biloba for 14 days(1).
According to the authors, this infusion would have allowed patients to regain their cognitive abilities more quickly:
After 14 days of treatment, patients who received ginkgo biloba experienced an improvement of 3.62 points compared to those who were given the placebo. After 90 days, the difference was even clearer.
In France, unfortunately, this type of treatment is not accessible.
The possibility of combining modern treatment techniques with traditional remedies simply does not exist.
This would scare the order of doctors and the regional health agencies.
However, if Chinese doctors had the idea of testing an infusion of ginkgo biloba on patients who had suffered a stroke, it was because they knew full well that this plant is exceptional, particularly for the brain.
A living fossil!
Ginkgo biloba is perhaps the oldest tree(3,4).
It is 150 million years old. He knew the dinosaurs!
Some sources even claim that it appeared 265 million years ago(5).
It would therefore have survived, 252 million years ago, the worst climatic crisis that the earth has known, during which 96% of living plant or animal species disappeared(6).
In Japan, it is also called the tree of life(3).
And, in fact, four specimens are said to have survived the atomic bombing of Hiroshima.
This tree can reach 40 m high and live for more than 4000 years!
What vitality!
It is originally from China, but is now cultivated all over the world, notably in France in the South-West.
And this is not a recent phenomenon. It was established in Europe in 1730.
A traditional remedy appreciated by Chinese therapists
In China, ginkgo biloba has been used for almost 5000 years! (4.7)
Indeed, the treaty Chen Noung Pen T’sao, dating from 2,700 BC. AD already recommends it to stimulate circulation and pulmonary energy(4).
According to this text, ginkgo helps treat coughs, asthma, nocturnal pollution and leucorrhoea, that is to say female genital infections. (4, 8)
At that time, the fruit of ginkgo biloba was especially recommended.
Then the therapists became interested in the leaves.
In Europe, it was German researchers who became passionate regarding this tree and its virtues, which they studied in detail in the second half of the 20th century(4).
They have carried out numerous studies which confirm all the good things that the Chinese have thought of this plant for millennia.
Today, ginkgo biloba is recommended by therapists around the world to care for the brain, heart and blood circulation(9,10).
This makes it an excellent anti-aging herb(4).
A plant that boosts the brain and nervous system
Chinese and German herbalists today all agree: ginkgo biloba is an exceptional plant for taking care of the human brain.
It is particularly recommended for (3,4,11):
stimulate cognitive functions, improve concentration, maintain or strengthen memory, preserve brain plasticity, promote creative thoughts, fight once morest cognitive disorders, prevent or fight once morest dementia, fight once morest tinnitus, reduce speech disorders balance, limit dizziness, improve vision, prevent migraines.
Furthermore, ginkgo also has a positive action on the nervous system and neurotransmitters which reduces anxiety and stress.
It is a plant that stabilizes mood.
All these effects on the brain and the nervous system make ginkgo biloba a possible accompaniment to mental illnesses such as schizophrenia or neurodegenerative illnesses such as Alzheimer’s.
It would also be useful to support attention disorders with or without hyperactivity (ADHD)(12).
Ginkgo also has beneficial effects on intermittent claudication.
It is an ideal plant for many convalescents.
Helps with blood circulation and the cardiac system
Ginkgo biloba promotes blood circulation and this is also why it is so good for the brain (3,11).
But in reality, the entire cardiac system benefits from this property, and even the entire body.
For example, ginkgo biloba is useful in combating Raynaud’s disease, the symptoms of which are cold hands and feet (13).
Its antioxidant power also makes it a medicinal plant that protects the body once morest free radicals, thus avoiding a source of inflammation.
This would also have a beneficial effect on the skin, the spots of which can disappear thanks to ginkgo biloba.
This is always the case!
In short, ginkgo biloba is THE plant you need when you want to keep a sharp mind combined with great vitality!
At your herbalist, you will find it in herbal tea, powder or capsules.
Be careful, however, some people might be allergic, even if this is rare(3).
