EXCELLENT for Memory, Circulation, Anxiety, and Sex Drive
This is one of my favorite HealthForce products. I usually take the intensive dosage of 4 capsules a day in 2 divided servings. After taking them in the morning, it's like there's this moment where I feel my brain 'turn on'. Ginkgo is also supposed to help with eye problems (I have amblyopia, aka a lazy eye...AMD also runs in my family) so I love how potent this blend is. You can really feel the blood pumping into all your extremities and into your brain, in a good way though. If you had trouble with your limbs falling asleep or poor circulation you would LOVE this stuff.<br /><br />It's also got eluethero which is a great adrenal tonic, and gotu kola which has numerous benefits. I remember reading somewhere about some Chinese emperor who took Gotu Kola thousands of years ago that said it 'gave him the strength to satisfy 1000 women'. Well I haven't bedded 1000 women, but I do have, erm, how do I put it.. let's just say it makes me feel like the energizer bunny :-) Another one of my favorite things about gotu kola is it's anti anxiety effect, especially in relation to auditory disturbances. My dad always yelled at me for making noise or biting my fork or chewing gum too loud or whatever, so I kind of inherited it. For years I would have to leave the room if someone was eating or chewing gum, it would just drive me absolutely nuts! I think a combination of growing up/realizing I just gotta deal with it, and this herb (the triterpenoids in gotu kola bind to something in your CNS reducing the 'acoustic startle response') have really helped me overcome my irritability.<br /><br />If you wanna make your memory as sharp as a tack and give yourself some extra endurance, definitely give this a try.
