Nova Vitae Ginkgo biloba 200mg plusThe Japanese temple tree or Ginkgo biloba has been used in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) for centuries.
In the past ten years, this herb (or rather: leaf of the tree) has also gained the attention it deserves in the West.
This attention and popularity can be well explained by the discovery of a number of active substances in this leaf.
1. First, the so-called ginkgo flavonglycosides:
2. Second, the terpenelactones:
Terpenelactones are the non-flavonoid phytonutrients that are present in a good Ginkgo biloba extract.
The "Plus" in this product stands for the added grape seed (Vitis vinifera L.) extract which is standardized to at least 95% OPC.
50 mg OPC per day is a maintenance dosage.
The OPCs from grape seeds are among the strongest natural antioxidants.
Antioxidants help to clean up free radicals, keeping cells and tissues healthy.
