GINKGO BILOBA |
Ginko Biloba is the oldest living tree species; individual trees live as
long as 1000 years. Chinese herbalists have been using the fan-shaped
leaves of the ginkgo tree for more than five thousands years. It was
recommended for memory loss in the elderly as well as respiratory tract
ailments. Ginkgo has proven to be a particularly valuable geriatric drug
