Ginkgo is one of the world's oldest tree still on Earth, and it has
been around since 200 million years ago. While its fruits and
seeds are toxic in certain amount, it was the extract of Ginkgo
biloba leaves that has been found to be beneficial to human
health. Ginkgo leaves standardized to contain 24% ginkgo
flavonglycodides and 6% terpenoids are used for therapeutic
purpose.

Standardised Ginkgo Biloba extract also act as a powerful free
radicals scavengers in the body. They neutralise free radicals.

A daily dose of 120mg standardised 24% Ginkgoflavonglycoside   
and 6% Terpene Lactones is needed. Ginkgo biloba extract
should be taken consistently for at least twelve weeks to give the
best results.  Although most people report benefits within two to
three weeks, some may take longer to respond. Ginkgo biloba
extract is found to be extremely safe.

patented, multi-phase extraction process resulting in a
standardized 24% ginkgoflavonglycoside (or heteroside) and a

the most active fractions. Ginkgo Biloba has a wide range of
beneficial effects, including circulatory and antioxidant protection.
