"Although often billed as a memory and cognition enhancing product, the medicinal herb Ginkgo biloba does not stave off cognitive decline or help prevent dementia and Alzheimer's disease, according to a report in the Journal of the American Medical Association this week."Oh, and by the way, it may not be safe, either.
"Compared with placebo, Ginkgo use was associated with a slightly increased risk of dementia and Alzheimer's disease."Perhaps the true test of dementia is whether you take ginkgo.
If you do, maybe you got it.
