Ginkgo Biloba
ABOUT:
Gingko is a leaf that lends itself to supporting the systems of the body. The Gingko tree has been known to live as long as a thousand years, which is telling of how the herb supports the body. As a cognitive support, gingko may help to increase blood flow to the brain, improve memory, support those with dementia and Alzheimer’s disease, and may help to prevent strokes and other clot-related diseases. Gingko may also help with tinnitus and vertigo. It has also been used to support those with altitude sickness, depression, anxiety, eye diseases, and other symptoms that show up in the head.
ACTIONS:
Antioxidant
Anti-inflammatory
Antispasmodic
Circulatory stimulant
Mild adaptogen
Neuroprotective
Vasodilator
A NOTE ABOUT OUR STANDARDS — All of our tinctures and elixirs (except for the mushroom elixirs) are made with 100-proof alcohol (grain alcohol and local spring water) and fresh plant material. For elixirs, they are made with 100-proof alcohol, raw honey, and fresh plant material.
We source fresh plants from California, from farmers who practice organic farming or “beyond organic” farming practices. All herbs are made into extracts within 24 hours of being picked, so they are extra potent!
We use fresh plants to preserve both water- and alcohol-soluble constituents that are lost when the plant is dried. Fresh plants make for a more potent extract and preserve the life force of the plant in the season it was meant to produce in.
Tincture = alcohol + herb
Elixir = alcohol + raw honey + herb
