Background and Use

Ginkgo biloba is the world's oldest living species of tree. Individual trees live as long as 1,000 years. Ginkgo grows most predominantly in the southern and eastern United States, southern France, China, and Korea. Although its medicinal use in China originates 5000 years ago, it was not until this the 20th century that the leaves of the tree were first used in European herbal medicine.

In the United States Ginkgo is one of the top-selling herbal supplements. In France and Germany it is one of the most popular prescribed medicines. This popularity can be attributed to large number of successful clinical studies that have been published. The Federal Government's Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) research program is currently funding several studies featuring this herb.

Gotu Kola is considered to be a highly spiritual herb and its name means "of divine origin". It is said to develop the crown chakra, the energy center at the top of the head, and to balance the right and left hemispheres of the brain. Ayurveda regards Gotu Kola as an important rejuvenating herb for nerve and brain cells, capable of increasing intelligence, longevity and memory. This is a traditional belief and has not been proven in human studies.
