Memory study, ginkgo-related

Ginkgo. The leaves and seeds of this plant, native to China, Japan, and Korea, are used to improve age-related loss of memory, including the dementia associated with Alzheimer s disease, and to relieve ringing of the ears and a type of pain and weakness in the limbs called intermittent claudication. More than 40 studies involving more than 1,000 patients show that ginkgo has a modest effect on dementia and intermittent claudication, but does not seem to help with memory loss or ringing of the ears. [Pg.229]
