More Evidence Ginkgo Biloba Will Not Prevent Dementia

Say it ain't so.

Another study adds to mounting evidence that ginkgo biloba, a popular herbal product, has no protective effect against progression to Alzheimer's disease (AD) over 5 years in elderly people with subjective memory complaints.

Results of the new GuidAge study echo those of an earlier study, the Ginkgo Evaluation of Memory (GEM) trial, which showed that ginkgo biloba does not prevent dementia in the elderly, with or without memory complaints.

Now how can it be that this crap sold at Whore Foods doesn't help?

A mystery.
