Can ginkgo improve memory?
There is also some evidence that suggest that ginkgo can help improve memory, concentration and cognition in patients with mild or early stage dementia. The studies so far have been done only in a few people and long term results remain unknown. ginkgo has been of no value in patients with moderate to severe dementia.
In Europe ginkgo has been widely used to treat patients who
have had strokes and the data are difficult to interpret. Some reports claim
that patients with mild stroke do improve after consuming ginkgo whereas other
studies show no response. More studies are needed before ginkgo can be
recommended for treating stroke patients.
In healthy people, ginkgo has not been shown to boost
memory. If you are dumb, then you will remain so for the rest of your
life. There is no magic pill to
improve memory-everything on the market is simply designed to scam DUMB
consumers.
