Description of Ginkgo
Ginkgo (Ginkgo biloba), also known as **Maidenhair tree** or **Yin xing**, has been used in traditional medicine for thousands of years, particularly in **Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)**. Revered for its ability to enhance brain function and improve blood circulation, Ginkgo is well-known for reducing symptoms of cognitive decline by increasing blood flow to the brain. Its potent antioxidant compounds, including flavonoids and terpene lactones, protect brain cells from oxidative damage and aging. Ginkgo is also used to alleviate symptoms of anxiety, improve mood, and support eye health by enhancing blood flow to the retina. Modern studies have shown that Ginkgo may help reduce tinnitus and symptoms of Raynaud's disease. Its wide range of benefits makes it one of the most widely used herbal supplements for cognitive health, circulation, and overall well-being.
