Is Ginkgo Biloba effective?

Question

I went to see an ENT and he told me that Ginkgo Biloba may be effective for me to reduce stress. He thinks that maybe stress might be causing my TMJ and Tinnitus. I was just wondering if anyone has ever taken this and it helped in other ways? Like depression, or stress?

Thank You!!!

Answer 1

I have taken Ginkgo Biloba for 20 years and i take it for memory and

keeping the mind sharp.. It is a blood thinner also as i understand

You should really ask a Doctor, some of my Drs. think it is a waste

of money. so it is really how you feel about it but i have never heard of

it for stress.  Look it up on the internet.

Answer 2

Ginkgo Biloba is good for blood circulation. I'm not sure whether it is good for reduce stress. Better u ask ur doctor!  

Answer 3

I find it hard to believe a medical doctor told you to use this herb.  It has been extensively studied in clinical trial and found to be totally ineffective...and potentially deadly as it can interact with prescription medicines.
