Ginkgo is a nootropic herb (smart drug) used to improve blood flow in the brain and peripheral circulation. This improved blood flow helps sharpen memory and cognitive function, recall information quicker and increase clarity and focus. Ginkgo is also used to treat age-related dementia, Alzheimer’s disease and to treat vertigo and respiratory issues.
