Numerous studies have detailed the efficacy of Ginkgo biloba extract () for a
wide variety of conditions. PAF has been implicated in a wide variety of
diseases including asthma, myocardial infarction, heart arrhythmias, and
atherosclerosis. GBE has been reported to increase circulation to the
brain and thus help with cases of dementia, Alzheimer's disease,
concentration problems, memory loss, vertigo, tinnitus, and dizziness. Studies have also reported that GBE was
helpful in cases of head injuries, asthma, macular degeneration, and impotence. Peripheral vascular
diseases such as Raynaud's syndrome, intermittent claudication, numbness and
tingling have been helped by GBE.
Description:
The main active compounds in Ginkgo leaves are the flavo - glycosides:
kaempferol, isorhamnetin, quercetin, and proantho - cyanidins. Also
important are the terpenes: ginkgolides and bilobalides.
These compounds have anti - oxidant and free radical properties. One way these
agents decrease inflammation is by inhibiting the Platelet Activating
Factor () and reducing the stickiness of platelets, which can result in
decreased circulatory flow.
