[Special ginkgo extract in cases of vertigo: a systematic review of randomised, double-blind, placebo controlled clinical examinations].

Most Relevant Research

We examined the effectiveness of a special ginkgo extract, known as EGb 761, in managing vertigo. The study involved rigorous methods, including randomized, double-blind, and placebo-controlled trials, ensuring that the results are reliable and valid.

Our review showcased various experimental and clinical studies focusing on how EGb 761 impacts vestibular compensation—the process that helps our brain adjust to balance and spatial orientation challenges. These studies demonstrated a beneficial effect of the extract in enhancing vestibular compensation both in animals and humans.

Thus, we can confidently say that the evidence supports the efficacy of EGb 761 in treating vertiginous syndromes. This makes ginkgo extract a promising option for individuals who suffer from different types of vertigo.

Reduced dizziness

Most Useful Review

Great for vertigo! My husband recently had his first (and hopefully last) vertigo attack, which landed him in the hospital. Being anti-medication, I researched natural supplements. I ordered Ginkgo Biloba and Ginger from NOW brand, as I trust them. He has been taking it daily for two weeks, and the dizziness has started to subside after a few days. This will now be part of his daily vitamin regimen.

Alzheimer details

Improves memory clarity

Most Useful Review

Ginkgo is beneficial for individuals experiencing mild dementia, Alzheimer's, anxiety, and memory difficulties. It has been effective for my father by rebooting his memory and improving clarity, which has encouraged me to continue purchasing it. The improvements in his condition validate its benefits, and I will keep buying this product for its evident efficacy.

Arthritis details

Decreased arthritis pain

Most Useful Review

Not a bad remedy for maintaining vitality. After suffering from Covid-19, I experienced many side effects such as drowsiness, chronic fatigue, depression, and noticeable memory impairment. On a friend’s advice, I started taking Ginkgo Biloba. After a month’s course, I noticed an improvement in my overall state. I felt more energetic, and my memory seemed better. I also observed a decrease in my arthritis pains; they became less noticeable. It appears that the medication is effective and is meeting my expectations.

Asthma details

Relieves asthma effectively

Most Useful Review

NOW Ginkgo has significantly relieved my asthma symptoms, especially when combined with Ridgeway Asthma Clear.

Cardiovascular Disease details

We have purchased it multiple times due to its excellent quality. It increases energy, sharpens cognitive function, and enhances memory. Ginkgo Biloba improves blood circulation, which may help mitigate the risks of cardiovascular disease and other serious health concerns.

Frozen Shoulder details

I regularly consume Ginkgo and this is a repurchase. Since I started taking it, my shoulders and neck no longer stiffen, and the migraines I used to experience have vanished.

Hypothyroidism details

Ginkgo biloba supports hypothyroidism treatment

Treatment with Ginkgo biloba supplement modulates oxidative disturbances, inflammation and vascular functions in oxygen deprived hypothyroid mice: Involvement of endothelin-1/NO signaling pathways.

Most Relevant Research

We investigated how Ginkgo biloba could help balance some of the challenges faced by hypothyroid mice under conditions of oxygen deprivation. In our study, we divided male Swiss mice into five groups, where some received Ginkgo biloba, while others were treated with Levothyroxine or were left untreated as controls.

We observed that Ginkgo biloba didn’t boost thyroid hormone levels, but it helped keep TSH levels steady. After treatment, the mice showed lower blood glucose, decreased oxidative stress, and inflammation, indicating a positive shift in their biochemical balance. This suggests Ginkgo biloba may reduce harmful effects related to hypoxia and hypothyroidism.

Importantly, we noticed Ginkgo biloba affected the signaling pathways involving endothelin-1 and nitric oxide in the aorta, which are crucial for vascular health. Overall, Ginkgo biloba appears to act as a therapeutic candidate, potentially offering a natural way to support cardiovascular function in hypothyroid conditions affected by low oxygen levels.

Regained life

Most Useful Review

Great product! At over 40 years old with hypothyroidism, I experienced drowsiness and a general decline in strength. Since taking this routinely with other supplements, I have literally regained my life over the past six months! I have confidence in the manufacturer, despite the GMP certificate. I highly recommend it!
