Extra Info:

First documented in the 15th century Chinese medical book Dian Nan Ben Cao, the leaves of Ginkgo biloba were used externally to treat sores and internally for diarrhea, asthma, tuberculosis, coughs and bronchial conditions. When the West became introduced to the plant, the herb was shown to help stimulate blood flow to the brain and improve the overall brain health of individuals with Alzheimer's, though it does not prevent the disease.

Interesting fact: Ginkgo trees in Hiroshima, Japan survived the atomic blast and are still alive today!
