Ginkgo biloba
Ginkgo improves circulation throughout the body by increasing the tone and elasticity of the blood vessels. It is especially prized for its ability to improve cognitive function by increasing cerebral blood flow. Ginkgo is one of the few herbs that has been subject to fairly extensive scientific research. These studies have shown ginkgo extracts to improve brain cell function and message transmission speed. Alzheimer’s sufferers have shown clinical improvement while taking ginkgo extract. Gingko may also be of use in many other cognitive conditions, such as ADHD, short-term memory loss, and brain injury. Because ginkgo increases blood flow to the body’s periphery, including the ears, eyes, and extremities, it is potentially useful for tinnitus, dizziness, eye health, Reynaud’s syndrome, and any other condition caused or compounded by poor circulation.
*Be sure to discontinue ginkgo several weeks prior to surgery, and do not take it with blood thinners or if you have a disease that impedes blood clotting. Like many herbs, ginkgo may be incompatible with pharmaceuticals, including psychiatric drugs. This may not be a complete list of all possible contraindications.*

"If you want to change your life and overall well-being take the first step and visit the Herb Shoppe. They are so knowledgeable in herbs, flower essences, and everything vital to life. I am so very grateful for this store."
"The herb shoppe is amazing! I had such a positive experience and the staff was so patient and helpful. As a newbie to herbalism and apothecary, it's so refreshing to be guided and helped out without any judgement. Vicky is super awesome and knows so much about herbalism and essential oils. Great selection of herbs and they have some delicious kombucha on tap."
"This place is amazing. The staff there are always very helpful. Reasonable prices for a large selection of herbs, teas, etc. They have smudge sticks and other things too. I am a huge fan of their turmeric chips for my inflammation. It's better than taking ibuprofen, and I can just drop a few chips in my tea."
