What is Ginkgo Biloba?

Ginkgo biloba is known for its properties to increase the blood flow to the brain, which helps improve memory and concentration. People use it also to deal with depression and headaches.

Ginkgo is most effective if it is standardized for minimum 24% flavone glycosides and minimum 6% terpene lactones.

The normal dose is 120mg taken in two equal doses a day. It also works in a single dose of this to double that amount.

Other then its memory enhancing properties ginkgo is also an antioxidant, which makes it especially valuable for athletes. Not only do you improve your cognitive function but you get one more natural antioxidant to fight the free radicals, created through stress.

And what is an intense workout? It’s stress of course. Does it contribute to the free radical increase? Absolutely!
