GINKGO AL 240 mg film-coated tablets, 120 pcs

Ginkgo AL - herbal support for memory and concentration

Our brain is constantly challenged to process new impressions and store information.From the age of 30 onwards, memory performance slowly declines; in 50 to 60 year olds, learning ability and concentration are exhausted much more quickly.The reason for this is that the mitochondria, which supply the nerve cells with energy, become weaker over the years.This slows down the transfer of information and makes it increasingly difficult to remember things or learn new things.

Just like the muscles, the brain can also be kept fit: even short units of memory training have a positive effect, and concentration and memory can also be supported with suitable medication.Ginkgo biloba extract can help improve oxygen and nutrient supply to brain cells.Since oxygen is the central 'fuel' for cognitive processes, a better supply means that the brain can work more efficiently again.For those affected with mild dementia in old age, this increase in quality of life can be expressed primarily in increased everyday skills: they can handle daily tasks more independently again, orientation can become easier and mental fatigue can improve.An optimized cell supply can help you to be able to actively participate in social life for longer.

Herbal medicine

The Ginkgo Biloba tree, native to China and Japan, is considered a very special plant.It is extremely resilient and can live up to 1,000 years.Its fan-shaped leaves are not only used in poetry as a symbol of friendship and love, but because of their valuable ingredients they are also valued in medicine and are used in the form of carefully prepared dry extracts for age-related cognitive impairment and mild dementia.

Ginkgo biloba extract can not only improve cerebral circulation and blood viscosity, thereby increasing oxygen and nutrient supply, but can also stabilize and improve the function of the inner mitochondrial membrane in nerve cells.A large part of the extract's positive effects on cognitive disorders can be attributed to this protective effect.

Regular exercise

Physical activity reduces the risk of dementia and promotes coordination and concentration.For people who are already affected, light strength training can help them to better control their balance, making it easier to avoid dangerous falls.

Memory training

Our brain can be trained just like our muscles.Just a few minutes of regular exercise can stimulate memory.Whether puzzles, quiz games or learning a language - the intellectual tasks should be as varied and fun as possible.

Maintain quality of life

Having dementia does not mean having to forego all the beautiful things in life.New scientific findings show that patients with dementia should continue to do what they previously enjoyed.This serves to stabilize and can slow down the progression of the disease.

Frequently Asked Questions & Answers

How long can you take GINKGO AL ?As is usual with herbal medicines, it may take some time before there is a noticeable improvement in symptoms.Treatment with GINKGO AL should therefore last at least 8 weeks.If the symptoms have not improved after 3 months, the treating doctor should check whether treatment should be continued.

How do you recognize the onset of dementia?The signs can vary depending on the personality and living circumstances of the person affected.Increased attention is required if everyday objects are frequently misplaced, the affected person gets lost on familiar paths or there is an increased difficulty in finding words.Out of shame and fear, those affected usually try to cover up their mistakes.The higher the level of education, the longer the signs can be hidden.If you notice any deficits in yourself, please see your family doctor as soon as possible.The earlier the disease is detected, the easier it is to treat.

Is dementia curable?Despite intensive research, dementia-related diseases such as Alzheimer's dementia cannot be cured.Dementia is a chronic, progressive brain disease in which certain mental abilities such as orientation, language and memory are gradually lost.Even if the brain changes are not reversible, they can be slowed down significantly with drug and non-drug therapies.
