In China it is considered the Tree of Longevity, some trees living to more than 1000 years old. Significant research has shown it can also protect you from brain damage after a stroke, as well as aiding in prevention of all cardiovascular challenges.<\/p>\n<p>The American Stroke Association says strokes can occur when a clot blocks or bursts a blood vessel to the brain. This damage prevents your brain from getting the blood and oxygen it needs. When your brain is starved of life-giving oxygen, it could lead to seizures, vision problems, memory and speech loss, or paralysis.<\/p>\n<p>According to research completed at Johns Hopkins University there is evidence that <strong><em>Ginkgo biloba<\/em><\/strong> may neutralize cell-damaging free radicals. \u00a0A research team gave mice daily doses of Ginkgo biloba extract. The mice then had a laboratory-induced stroke. The researchers found these mice suffered about <strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">half<\/span><\/strong> the brain damage as animals not given the ginkgo.<\/p>\n<p>They also found that mice that were give ginkgo five minutes <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">after<\/span> the induced stroke sustained nearly <strong>60 percent less brain damage<\/strong> the day after the stroke than those not given ginkgo at all. And when mice received ginkgo 4 1\/2 hours after a stroke\u2014they still showed about a third less damage than those not given ginkgo!<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf further work confirms what we\u2019ve seen, we could theoretically recommend a daily regimen of ginkgo to people at high risk of stroke as a preventive measure against brain damage,\u201d said lead researcher Sylvain Dore, associate professor at the Johns Hopkins Department of Anesthesiology and Critical Care Medicine.<\/p>\n<p>Gingko has also been used to improve concentration and memory, Raynaud\u2019s, and is an effective blood thinner for stroke prevention.<\/p>\n<p>The <strong><em>Ginkgo biloba <\/em><\/strong>that I use is a time released concentrate, which is very potent and effective.
