Ginkgo has been used for many things but primarily cognitive function and circulatory health. Other uses include anxiety, glaucoma, vertigo and premenstrual syndrome. However, evidence has been inconclusive despite the amount of research conducted. This may be explained by the different extracts containing varying amounts of active ingredients.
Typical dose ranges from 60mg to 240mg of Ginkgo Biloba Extract daily in divided doses. Most brands nowadays standardize the extract to 24% ginkgo flavone glycosides and 6% total terpene lactones. Since Ginkgo exerts its circulatory effects by affecting blood flow, it is best to start low and slowly work your way up. So a dosing regime can look something like this: Starting dose of 60mg daily for 1-2 weeks, then increase by 60mg every 1-2 weeks until you reach a desired dose. Make sure to divide the doses if you can. Maximum 300mg daily.
If you're taking it multiple times a day, space it evenly. Otherwise if you're taking it only once a day, take it in the morning. However it is also fine to take any time of day.
Side effects include dizziness, palpitations, headache and stomach upset. To minimize dizziness on standing up from a sitting position, do so slowly. With that being said, anyone who has or are taking medications for: hypertension, vertigo or any other cardiovascular disease which includes ischaemic and haemorrhagic stroke should consult their doctors first before consuming this supplement.
