Ginkgo Biloba Max-V, provided by Douglas Laboratories, contains 60 mg of the herb Ginkgo biloba, in a vegetarian capsule. The active ingredients, ginkgo flavone glycosides, can help protect the body_s structure and function against damage from free radicals, as well as helping to maintain healthy circulatory function and mental performance.
Ginkgo biloba is the oldest living species of tree, having survived relatively unchanged for at least 200 million years. Native to China, ginkgo has long been recommended in Chinese herbs for its numerous nutritional benefits for the brain and circulatory system as well as its antioxidant properties.
With advancing age, the body often suffers from decreased blood vessel elasticity and tone, and decreased blood fluidity. Insufficient blood, oxygen, and nutrient flow to the brain can lead to impairment in cognitive function. Studies over the past 30 years show that 120 to 240 mg per day of Ginkgo biloba extract increases blood flow to the brain resulting in increased oxygen and glucose utilization with subsequent improvement in mental function.
The ginkgo flavone glycosides, one of the two phytoactive classes present in Ginkgo balboa, work as powerful antioxidants and counteract the deleterious actions of free radical accumulation which impairs cellular energy production, nerve transmission, and increases vascular rigidity.
Ginkgo biloba extract is also reported to inhibit the tendency of red blood cells to stick together ("clumping"), thereby enhancing the fluidity of the blood. Taken together, these actions contribute significantly to increasing blood flow to the brain.
Ginkgo Biloba Max-V may be useful for individuals who are concerned about their mental function and wish to obtain the benefits of this well-documented herb.
