Ecclesiastes 3:1 "There is a time and a purpose for everything under the heavens."


Activist note: The global economy was attacked by the socialist(occult) during the planedemic. I am working to re-unite non-fortune 500 entrepaneurs across the globe with this project. The implimentation of shadow banning on social media has made it almost impossible for non-fortune-500 sellers to network like they used to. They have their new supremacist cheaters algorithms in place, and are actively oppressing those who strive to be individuals, rather than conforming to the global slavery agenda.

Quick Fun Fact: Ginkgo biloba is one of the oldest seed plants on the planet![10]


Native Habitat: It's Native to China;[10] Currently, Ginkgo is also grown in Europe, Asia, Argentina, North America, and New Zealand[10] Mostly known for its use in Ancient Chinese Medicine


Warnings/Precautions:

People who suffer from ulcers should avoid daily use of Ginkgo biloba. An ulcer is internal bleeding. It should also not be combined with certain drugs and herbs, including anything that acts as a blood thinner or NSID's. If you notice blood in your stool, stop using Ginkgo immediately. This product may cause restlessness in some, headaches, and even dizziness. I have an ulcer and use it, but not every single day. I take mullein with it, because Mullein is good for ulcers. Socialist are seeking to destroy the peoples economy, that means everyone who is 100% independent, and not operating under fortune-500 supremacy. That means if you're products are not purchased from fortune-500 wholesalers, they're coming after you(assuming you're a big enough threat to them). If you're shadow banned or had your toes stomped on, reach out to me for my services! I advertise for righteous sellers only.


Plant kingdom: Family: Ginkgoaceae;[10][15] Genus: Ginkgo;[10][15] Species: G. Biloba;[10][15]


Nicknames: living fossil[4][16] Maidenhair tree;[10][16] Kew tree, and Japanese silver apricot Tree;[16]


Phytochemicals:

bilobalide(diabetes, cancer and alzheimer disease.[16])[4] flavonoids (quercetin, kaempferol[also found in Galanga maraba], and isorhamnetin), terpenoids (bilobalide and ginkgolides), bioflavonoids (ginkgetin, sciadopitysin, and isoginkgetin), and organic acids (ginkgolic acid)[10] lignans(antioxidant properties)[10][16] Ginkgo biloba seeds contain high levels of: vitamin C, carbohydrates, riboflavin, proteins, and various other nutrients[10] More phytochemicals that G. biloba produces includes: Ginkgolide B, Ginkgolide A, Ginkgolide C, Ginkgolide J), D glucoside, Rutin;[16]


All of these are documented on academic databases like PubChem and Google Scholar. I link to them at the bottom of every page. [ Note this is not all of them that exist within the plant, and I never claim to cover every one of them. I try to get as many as possible listed though. ]


What is Phytochemistry? What are Phytochemicals?

Phytochemistry is a branch of chemistry that deals specifically with the pharmacological phytochemicals that plants create.[12][13] The energy gathered from the process of phytosynthesis is used in the production of these miraculous medicines, hints "phyto" in both of the titles.. Drug companies know this, and use the FDA, political influence, money, and lies, to discredit God, and herd masses of people into thinking that these herbal remedies are bogus folk lore and or wishful thinking... and into taking vaccines and mRNA instead... When the truth is, herbal remedies are the only real medicine on the planet. Examples of the most well known phytochemicals on the planet include: CBD, THC, Caffeine, Nicotine, etc.


Pharmacological / Medicinal Properties:
Anti-Aging, Circulation, Depression, Dizziness, Impotence, Memory, Tinnitus[1](Gottlieb & Dollemore, 1995, p. 664) Immune Support, Fibromialgia, Headaches, Menopause[2](Miller, 1998, p. 440) Ginkgo biloba is most known for its use by herbalist for: memory-deficit problems, including Alzheimer's and dementia.[4][16] It has more benefits than what most people know it for however. Studies show that Ginkgo produces the following pharmacological properties: hepatoprotective(the ability of a chemical substance to prevent damage to the liver[5]), photoprotective effects(Photoprotection is the biochemical process that helps organisms cope with molecular damage caused by sunlight.[6]), DNA repair mechanism, antioxidant(Antioxidants are compounds that inhibit oxidation (usually occurring as autoxidation), a chemical reaction that can produce free radicals.[7][16]) and anti-inflammatory activities("Anti-inflammatory or antiphlogistic is the property of a substance or treatment that reduces inflammation or swelling. Anti-inflammatory drugs, also called anti-inflammatories, make up about half of analgesics."[8][16][4]) Ginkgo also shows the following pharmacology according to studies: anticancer, antidementia, antidiabetic, antiobesity, antilipidemic, antimicrobial, antioxidant, antilipid peroxidation, antiplatelet, anti-inflammatory, hepatoprotective, antidepressant, antiaging, immunomodulatory, antihypertensive, and neuroprotective effects( It's used often to treat neurological, cardiovascular, and respiratory diseases, such as tardive dyskinesia. )[10] BTW: An immunomodulatory substance is: "A substance that stimulates or suppresses the immune system and may help the body fight cancer, infection, or other diseases."[11] I would imagine that it would work well with Echinacea because both are immunomodulatory, as well as Cannabis.(and in my experience it DOES work well with these two!) There's more facts to discover on every scholarly source! More benefits and uses of Ginkgo include: "asthma, tuberculosis (TB), skin problems, stomach discomfort, bronchitis, hearing loss, nervousness, arteriosclerosis, thrombus formation, ischemic heart disease, and diabetes mellitus"[10] Again, the herb is mostly known for treating cardiovascular and neurological disorders[10] The tree produces: ginkgolides Q, P, N, M, L, K, J, C, B, and A.[10] ( I love the name! ) Its leaves have been utilized to treat heart issues and cure skin infections[10] Ginkgo nuts on the other hand, have traditionally been used on a number of respiratory illnesses, including asthma, chest pain, and cough, as well as bladder irritation and alcoholism[10] Numerous studies illustrate the neuroprotective effects of the herb and its extracts[16]. This means that science shows Ginkgo is protective for the brain. It's no surprise to me that nature was created with symbiosis and synergy in mind.


Flavonoids: According to one scholarly source: "To date, 110 flavonoids have been identified[10] That's JUST FLAVONOIDS! We're talking potentially thousands of medicinally active phytochemicals in these remedies.. That means that each individual plant, whether it's Chamomile, or Ginkgo, or Ginseng, or WHATEVER, produces its own pharmacy, as in MULTIPLE MEDICINES... AS IN AN ENTIRE STORE FILLED WITH DRUGS, FROM ONE PLANT ALONE!!! People don't understand the nature of medicine, and that's where I come in.


Cancer: Scientist have conducted many studies on Ginkgo and found something rather remarkable about its pharmacology.. Studies show that a leaf extract of G. biloba L. may exert beneficial effects on cancer![4] I've read insane numbers of academic sources on these herbal remedies, and It's very common for them to be anti-cancerous. The results and conclusions of these phytochemical studies, and the analysis of their pharmacological value, time and time again proves that God makes medicine better than man. It's no wonder the serpent can be seen on the side of the ambulance, because the powers that be seek to oppress natural cures, and the knowledge thereof, even though it is hidden in plain sight. Even the bible tells us that plants are medicine: "Along the bank of the river, on this side and that, will grow all kinds of trees used for food; their leaves will not wither, and their fruit will not fail. They will bear fruit every month, because their water flows from the sanctuary. Their fruit will be for food, and their leaves for medicine." Ezekiel 47:12 Polysaccharides from the leaves of Ginkgo biloba suppress the proliferation of breast cancer cells and human endometrial cancer cells"[16]


Culinary Arts: In China, where the Ginkgo tree is native to, it is commonly used in the culinary arts, including: Ginkgo-steamed egg and Ginkgo-fried chicken, and Cheng Teng is a classic sweet treat found in Southeast Asia. G. biloba nuts are often served as a side in Japan.[10]


Cosmetics: A fun fact has led me to this segment.. The Ginkgo biloba tree has also been used in the production of cosmetics![16] Female entrepaneurs listen up, not only is there a way for you to stick it to the fortune-500 socialist, but there's a way for you to be sexy and healthy at the same time... You can make your own botanical cosmetics, and sell them online.. Either on ETSY, or in your own stand-alone shop ( I suggest Bigcommerce.com ) It's $3xx.xx per year, and very easy to use. It keeps track of everything for you to make it easy for you to pay taxes and accept major credit cards. If I had an old lady, and things were different, I would suggest that perhaps we go in on this idea. It sounds pretty sexy, the idea of a woman wearing botanical cosmetics, rather than industrial. These lines of products could also be spiked with aphrodisiacs.


Mixes well with: I like to add it in with infusions or mixtures for dreams(oneirogen blends). I add it in with mullein, Calea z, Poppy Seeds, Damiana, Echinacea, and even Mucuna pruriens powdered seeds and leaves as well. The Mullein is good for my ulcer, the calea stimulates dreams, poppy seeds contain traces of oneirogenic opioids as well as melatonin and b vitamins that also stimulate dreams, damiana is also known to be an oneirogen, and the cowage seeds help boost neurochemical levels in the brain as well. I've had very good results from this "dream blend", but I don't take it every single night because I have an ulcer and have to moderate anything with Ginkgo biloba in it. If you think my thinking is un-scientific, think again... Here is a quote from a scholarly source that tends to see things the same way that I do: "The capacity of G. biloba components to act as free radical scavengers is critical, and combining its extract with other plant extracts has been shown to synergistically boost antioxidant properties."[10] Because of the facts that Ginkgo biloba is good for: asthma, tuberculosis, skin problems, stomach discomfort, and bronchitis[10], it would be a good ingredient to use in DIY salves made for these and related conditions! You could mix it with Mint or menthol and Mullein leaf for a sore throat salve! The active phytochemical components absorb into the skin! Because it is used for cardiovascular as well as neurological ailments, it would blend well with raw chocolate, aka Cacao. ( Chocolate is good for the brain and cardiovascular system as well ) [ I cite scholarly sources on that on the page )


This article is dedicated to Ginkgo Biloba's less well known medical benefits. Ginkgo is most well known for its use as a general nootropic ( mind enhancer ), and to boost memory. It has a lot more value than the mainstream knows though. "Ginkgo improves blood supply to the brain. It can help with all twelve symptoms of cerebral insufficiency."(Miller, 1998, p. 101) Many people are doubtful of this because they don't understand how the leaves of a tree could possibly act as medicine. The truth is that scientific inquiry exposes to us a limitless pharmacy which flourishes in the plant kingdom. The scientific study of that pharmacy is called Phytochemistry[3], and its dedicated practice is to examine and identify medicinal and psychoactive constituents produced by plants, ie "phytochemicals"[3].


As I mentioned in the paragraph above, Ginkgo Biloba has been observed to increase the brains supply of blood. "Scientist have established under clinical circumstances, that a concentrated extract of Ginkgo leaves improves memory performance and learning capacity, inactivates toxic radicals, and improves blood flow."(Swerdlow, 2000, p. 358) These properties would explain why I've always found it a useful remedy for certain types of headaches(keep in mind it can actually cause certain types of headaches longterm, so beware). I find it to be especially effective in conjunction with some high quality, high potency, organic dark chocolate.. The benefits don't stop there though. "Scientist have also observed Alzheimer's patients which receive doses of Ginkgo have delayed mental deterioration during the early stages of the disease."(Swerdlow, 2000, p. 358) I use a little bit of it here and there, but never every single day. Ginkgo can be problematic for those dealing with ulcers long term, and especially those who take blood thinners(anticoagulant or antiplatelet) or other medications.[9]


You may think that the benefits of Ginkgo Biloba stop there, but they don't. "Clinical trials also show us that it improves airway passages of asthma patients, and relieves symptoms of vertigo and tinnitus."(Swerdlow, 2000, p. 358) Sounds like it would mix well with Mullein leaf for this reason(Mullein is also useful for respiratory ailments) It's also beneficial for circulatory problems, arteriosclerosis, and high blood pressure.(Swerdlow, 2000, p. 358) Because the research also shows that raw cacao or dark chocolate are also good for circulations, the two of these should go great together. I love the idea of herbal infused chocolate. I'm thinking mullein, ginkgo, and cacao.. Anyone else? Combinations, of infusions, are a very common practice in "alternative" healing practices. It helps to learn about the phytochemical constituents in all of your food and herbs, so that you can be more scientific in coming up with infusion ideas and recipes. Making use of herbalism by learning how to incorporate it into your culinary arts, is not only a skill, it's an artform.


The Ginkgo tree actually produces a pharmacological constituent called heteroside.(Swerdlow, 2000, p. 79) Beating cancer with nutrition: clinically proven and easy-to-follow strategies to dramatically improve quality and quantity of life and chances for a complete remission. Tulsa, OK: Nutrition Times Press.. Heteroside is a phytochemical, hints its a pharmacological chemical which was discovered, researched, and named by phytochemist. This is how we know scientifically that these medicinal plants really are effective at assisting the human body in the natural process of healing. "Heteroside is known to improve circulation, augments the production of healthy prostaglandin, boost the immune system, and acts as an adaptogen ( helps to regulate many cellular functions ). That's pretty hardcore you guys. When you learn more and more about these supplements from scholarly sources, you can't help but want to buy them. I set out on a mission many years ago to correct the socialist lie that "herbal remedies are not backed by any science"(because they ARE backed by science)... and I set out to expose the truth about the very nature of medicine in general, and how it all originates from plants, and the various fruits from the garden of Eden in the book of Genesis.


Ginkgo has even been studied for its potential in preventing and fighting cancer. I can tell you though that morally ethical doctors around the world who believe in natural medicines often suggest herbal remedies, including Ginkgo Biloba. In the Book "Beating Cancer With Nutrition", Ginkgo is suggested along with many others as a way to provide your biology with "complete protection from an entire hierarchy of antioxidants."(Swerdlow, 2000, p. 79) Other commonly suggested herbal remedies for dealing with cancer include: Cancer Bush, Chamomile, Cats Claw, Golden Root, and Ginger root.Make sure you thoroughly research each individual botanical in any infusion, tincture, or product, so that you know what you're putting into your body. I've been testing herbal medicines and writing about them for over 15 years, and I am still surprised to this day. Proceed with great caution, and always dose small to start off. Listen to your body!


Why is it not a mainstream practice for doctors to suggest or prescribe such natural and effective herbal remedies, or the straight up miraculous phytochemical isolates that they produce to be prescribed as the patients medications? Why do drug companies not mass isolate these miraculous phytochemicals and make preparations out of them? As somoene who has read much published research on phytochemicals produced by herbal remedies, I know of the miraculous healing potential these plants have. I've used the remedies myself my whole life. I understand medicine. If I ran the world, we would have a solid medical system that revolved around botanical preparations, and isolates. That's all you need, no synthetics what-so-ever. These diabolical and fascist serpent regimes only want to keep people ill, and protect big drug companies profits. Natural methods of medicating are often viewed as ignorant or un-academic by misguided individuals. This is not the truth however. They have not taken the time to think or research for theirselves. Sadly, the government is allowing the socialist to steal the real Marijuana, while they replace it with this tainted pharmakeia version of the drug(delta8 and related products are poisoned with traces of solvents, and even have neurotoxic proplyene glycol added to them many of the times)[14]


Unfortunately the mainstream world seems to define intelligence as how much information is memorized by an individual. This idea that people have about what intelligence is doesn't take into account which information is accurate, and which is purely diabolical and misleading. This is why we have people walking around all over the world who laugh at, mock, and condemn natural medicine as if its a joke. They are mindlessly repeating to others what they have been taught. What they have learned is nothing more than a narcissistic rant, or a "chant" if you will, that misleads others into the darkness. Please stop relying on large crowds of people to wise up to a certain matter before you do. You have the capability to start a chain of activism, by taking the lead, and setting the example. Please become a social activist today, and help combat these slanderers, cheaters, and sore losers.

Please be mindful of where you spend your money.. Fortune-500 was given supremacy during the attacks from 2016-2021.. Those independent from fortune-500 had their small business windows smashed in, every self made millionaires like Edens Ethnos, Bouncing Bear Botanicals, BotanicalSpirit, and Meridian Botanicals. All of these guys were either wrongfully singled out for "illegally importing kratom", or sabotaged out of business by credit card processors removing them from their services, essentially costing them their business. Shadow bans on social media, and heavily policing, has made it almost impossible for entrepaneurs like me and others to do business, or network with one another..
