Ginkgo Memory 60mg - 120 Caps

SISU GINKGO BILOBA Phytosome enhances memory through increasing blood flow to the peripheral blood vessels of the brain.

What is a Phytosome brand herb?

To be properly absorbed by the body, the active molecules of a herbal compound (bioflavonoids) must first link up with a fatty acid. This natural process usually takes place within the body. Unfortunately, not all the herbal compound is able to link up with fatty acids, resulting in much of the herb's active ingredients passing out of the body, unused.

Phytosome brand herbs put a stop to this wastage. The patented Phytosome brand process ensures the vital link between bioflavonoid and fatty acid takes place before the herbal supplement is taken into the body, improving absorption, increasing biological avail-ability, and enhancing delivery to the tissues. The fatty acid to which active plant ingredients are bound is a natural component of lecithin, known as phos-phatidylcholine.

Ginkgo Biloba

The Ginkgo tree is the oldest tree in existence today. It dates back to the time of the dinosaurs. For thousands of years, its leaves have been recognized for their benefits to the elderly.

Ginkgo leaves are routinely used in Chinese medical practice, and are known as Bai-guo-ye, which literally means "benefitting the brain".

The active ingredients in Ginkgo are called Ginkgo flavone glycosides and Ginkgo terpene lactones. These substances cause the blood vessels to dilate (expand) as well as increase blood fluidity.

Increasing peripheral blood flow to the brain through the use of a standardized extract of Ginkgo helps alleviate many conditions that affect the elderly, such as dizziness, depression, ringing in the ears (tinnitus), and short-term memory loss.

Extract of Ginkgo is also a highly effective free radical scavenger.

The body's absorption of flavone glycosides from Ginkgo Biloba is greatly enhanced by the Phytosome brand process.

Recent studies have shown Phytosome brand Ginkgo Biloba to be more effective than Ginkgo Biloba alone in restoring blood flow in people suffering from insufficient blood flow to the hands, legs and feet. Insufficient blood flow to the legs can result in painful calf-muscle cramps known as intermittent claudication. This condition is caused by reduced oxygen and a build-up of toxic metabolites and free radicals.

Research has already shown that Ginkgo Biloba improves blood flow and increases metabolic processes when blood flow and oxygen supply are diminished. Although both groups studied showed improve-ment, the group using Phytosome brand Ginkgo Biloba showed significant improve-ment over the Ginkgo Biloba group. The results after 12 weeks of therapy were far more obvious than after three to four weeks, confirming that treatment with Phytosome brand Ginkgo Biloba should be consistent and long-term.
