Super powers, we all want them in one way or another. Some of us want to fly, some want X-ray vision, some even want to be able to throw fire from their eyes! Sadly (or luckily, depending on how you look at it), most fantasy powers are unattainable. There is one, however, that is within our grasp, and it is a safe, beneficial power that can help with everyday things in our live – and it won’t set anything on fire.  It is the power created by Ginkgo Biloba that can give us super memory.

Ginkgo Biloba is an ancient tree species native to Asia, which has been used in Chinese medicine for over four thousand years. Harvested for its high antioxidant level, along with its benefits on memory, the fossil trees can live up to and beyond one thousand years. The healing aspects of Ginkgo are commissioned by its ability to bring highly oxygenated blood to the brain, which helps by increasing attention, learning ability and memory.

The leaves from the tree are cultivated and it is the extract (GBE), which is used.

It is said that the increase of oxygen in the brain will bring you an extra strong memory, and ginkgo biloba is already used by many countries to help treat Alzheimer’s disease (AD).

The University of Maryland Medical Center has published an article of clinical studies that have shown ginkgo to benefit those suffering from AD by:

1. Improving cognitive function

2. Improving activities of daily living

3. Improving social behavior, and;

4. Causing fewer feelings of depression

But you needn’t be suffering from memory problems to take ginkgo. Ginkgo can be used as a supplement to help fortify an already strong brain. It can help you with concentration during any of life’s activities, and will give you an advantage with memory and brain challenges everyday. It is a power wielded without worry, and it won’t burn the place down!
