MEMORY
Studies have shown that Ginkgo is effective in helping improve memory and alertness.
For example, at Whitlington Hospital in London researchers examined the benefits of
Ginkgo Biloba extract on patients over 50 with signs of memory impairment.
The studies demonstrated that Ginkgo extract has a beneficial effect on mild to moderate
memory loss of organic origin as well as improved brain function.1
HEADACHES
Studies have shown that Ginkgo biloba extract is useful in treating some patients
suffering from migraines.2,3
ASTHMA
Several studies suggest a therapeutic role for Ginkgo biloba extract in the management
of asthma. One study reports a reduction in the severity and frequency of asthma
attacks.1,4
TINNITUS AND HEARING LOSS
Ginkgo biloba extract can be particularly helpful for vertigo, hearing loss and tinnitus,
and is exceedingly well tolerated.2
Other studies have also shown beneficial effects.4
CIRCULATION DISORDERS
Studies have shown that Ginkgo biloba extract enhances blood flow not only through the
large blood vessels but also small vessels like the capillaries close to the skin.
It is said to increase blood flow to healthy areas of the brain, as well as to the
disease-damaged areas.4
ANTIOXIDANT PROPERTIES
Ginkgo, Vitamin C, Manganese and Zinc, all included in Ginkgo 7500 Plus, are powerful
antioxidants which help maintain healthy cells throughout the body.
Antioxidants are also important to help protect blood vessels against free radical attack
helping to maintain vessel health.
Ginkgo 7500 Plus contains the important micro nutrients:
¡Ü Hawthorn - contains a wide range of vitamins, bioflavonoids, choline and inositol which
help to dilate blood vessels and improve blood flow especially to the heart
¡Ü Vitamin C - is essential for collagen production and is a powerful antioxidant and
free-radical scavenger
¡Ü Vitamin B6 - is involved in more functions than any other single nutrient and is needed
for normal brain function, DNA synthesis and control of the sodium and potassium balance
¡Ü Zinc - has an important role in circulation through helping to maintain the level of
Vitamin E in the blood
¡Ü Magnesium - helps protect the linings of veins and arteries and helps maintain nerve
signal transmission
¡Ü Manganese - helps regulate blood sugar metabolism and is needed for energy production
¡Ü Chromium - low plasma levels of Chromium may be associated with coronary artery disease,
especially if associated with poor circulation
Mode of action
Clinical studies show that Ginkgo helps improve circulation by inhibiting PAF
(Platelet Activating Factor). PAF cause platelets to group together slowing the flow of
blood out of the body if there is a cut or wound. PAF is also involved in the formation
of blood clots which can block veins and other vessels and cause heart attacks or strokes.
Nutra-Life Ginkgo 7500 Plus also contains antioxidants which are important to protect
cells from free radical attack, tohelp maintain cell and vessel health.
Indications
Use for conditions affected by poor circulation including:
Ginkgo has been shown to be useful for people suffering from Alzheimers disease.4
Under medical supervision, Ginkgo may also be helpful in diabetics with circulatory problems affecting the eye and extremities.
Adverse effects
There have been few side effects from taking Ginkgo biloba extract reported in the
scientific literature. Higher dosages have sometimes produced complaints,
usually a mild gastrointestinal upset or headache.4 Ginkgo can also increase blood
pressure in people with hypertension.
