Ginkgo Biloba is originally from Asia, derived from the maidenhair tree. This species of tree is known as the ‘living fossil tree’ as it has no living relatives, and originated from the prehistoric age.

Seven million years ago the Ginkgo tree had disappeared off fossil records, and it was thought that it had become extinct. A German scientist called Engelbert Kaempfer re-discovered the tree in 1691 in Japan, where it was studied for its healing properties.

This Chinese tree could be one of the oldest living seed plants, with its fan shaped leaf and yellowy seeds. This plant has been mostly used in Chinese medicine, and its leaves were used in western medicine. It was researched and published in a book called Chinese medicinal herbs in 1911. The seeds were used to help treat asthma, coughs, and irritable bladders.

After the 1970’s botanists and other professionals began to investigate Ginkgo’s qualities as a medicine with more intensity. They tried to discover other properties that the Gingko could hold, and what other conditions it could help.

here are various conditions where Ginkgo has been used to help, showing beneficial effects in all, these are;
