Ginkgo Biloba Certified Extract has been concentrated and dual standardized to ensure the highest quality, consistency,
and biological activity. Ginkgo Biloba Certified Extract contains the lowest level of ginkgolic available, even
lower that the stringent 5 ppm German Commision E limit. Ginkgolic is an en for some people and is present in
much higher levels in lower quality products.
Ginkgo biloba is one of the oldest trees known and has been used to support for nearly 2,800 years. Ginkgo has
been found to:
* Support y circulation
* Help maintain the normal function and tone of blood vessels
* Support y oxygen and glucose sm in the brain
* Stabilize capillaries and make them less fragile
* Support normal coagulation of blood
* Support y aging in the brain.
Ginkgo leaf extracts contain several active constituents with neuroprotective and cardioprotective properties. These
include flavonoids (e.g., rutin, quercetin, kaempferol, and proanthocyanidins), terpenoids (i.e., ginkgolides), and
s. Flavonoids are known to strengthen capillaries, promote y blood flow to the brain, and help
maintain cognitive .
Flavonoids such as quercetin and kaempferol from Ginkgo biloba are potent antioxidants and scavengers of many species of
free radical, protecting against oxidative cell damage. Ginkgo protects the energy-producing mitochondria in the cells,
thus enhancing oxygen utilization and cellular respiration.
In a study to determine whether ginkgo extract could inhibit age-associated cellular changes, the brain and liver
mitochondria of old mice fed ginkgo extract in their drinking water was compared to those of young and old control mice.
Mitochondria from the mice given ginkgo exhibited significantly less genetic damage, peroxide generation, and oxidation
of the crucial antioxidant glutathione than non-supplemented mice. In addition, mitochondria from old mice given the
ginkgo extract resembled those of young mice much more closely, being similar in size and morphology. The study
concluded that standardized ginkgo extract inhibits age-related decline in mitochondrial structure and function by
protecting mitochondria from oxidative damage.
The premium-quality botanical extract in Ginkgo Biloba Certified Extract has been concentrated and dual-standardized to
ensure the highest quality, consistency, and biological activity.
The phytoent profile of Ginkgo Biloba Certified Extract is comparable to the GBE 24/6 extract used in clinical
studies worldwide and monographed in German Commission E. The regulatory agency that regulates ginkgo purity in
Germany mandates that ginkgo not contain more than 5 ppm of ginkgolic . Ginkgo Biloba Certified Extract contains
less than 1 ppm of ginkgolic . Ginkgolic is a substance related to anacardic (poison ivy) and may cause an
ic reaction in some people. Ginkgo Biloba Certified Extract has one of the lowest ginkgolic levels
commercially available.
Ginkgo Biloba Certified Extract has high levels of ginkgolide B (>1%), which is the most studied terpene lactone and
thought to be a major regulator of platelet activating factor (PAF). PAF is a powerful physiologic-response mediator for
many processes.
