Free eBook Download Comprehensive Guide to Herbs www.meschinohea... In this video Dr Meschino explains risks and benefits behind using Ginkgo Biloba for dementia.
What's with all these negative comments? It's as if you guys didn't even watch the video. Almost all of what he said was positive and the only negative aspect was that taking it with NSAIDs could be harmful due to Ginko's vaso-dilation effect along with NSAIDs anti-inflamitory properties. He even recommended a dosage if you want to take it.
Whatever drug we take that is in excess or use improperly (right dosage, timing, other drug interactions) is bad. What he says is just an awareness that even herbal medicine such as gingkobiloba, if not taken properly, can be bad, because, you know, these substances too have chemicals in it, altho not synthetic, that may affect the normal physiological and biochemical processes of the body.
You are right on target with your comment we need to talk about this more then spread this word this medical killing Mafia is just that they don't want you to have anything healthy they want to keep you in the system American Cancer Society is the biggest scam in the United States there's been a chance and chair since 18 hundreds and more and more have come up and those doctors have been shut down because of this medical chilling mafia so stay healthy stay the f*** away from them...
That's is already commonly known . It says it on the drug label. They go to school to learn about drugs not herbs but I don't know if I could trust a doctor about a herbal medication. Although what he says makes a lot of sense. I would not want my blood to be thinner than it already is unless I had problem with the viscosity of my circulation.
I've been taking 250 mg of Gingko and 75 mg of Aspirin together for more than 10 years, never had a problem. I do this in the interest of counteracting the bad influence of cigarettes, which I haven't been able to quit.
When you click on the link in your description box and follow the prompts to your article, it only allows you to view the first page of the article, at least that’s what happened when I tried- this is very interesting information and I was looking forward to learning more-
This was informative, and he's certainly not hating on Ginko. He spends the first half the video explaining the benefits. Everything - even natural products - have side effects and it's important for people to be educated on them.
I went through the references and could not find one study that showed Ginkgo Biloba caused any kind of internal bleeding unless it was used where a individual was or had been using blood-thinners, anti-depressants or other drugs that DO interact. If you can show me that I would be willing to give it a notice. I also would like to explain a common misconception. Blood thinners are dangerous because they thin the blood irregardless of the bodies healing processes or what is actually need so they can actually cause serious issues. HOWEVER, in the plant and herb kingdom most of the time that is NOT what is taking place. Herbs like Ginkgo Biloba and Cayenne equalize the blood, there is a huge difference. The herbs do it naturally and in synergy with your body, the drug does it arbitrarily in complete disregard of the body. There is some concern about Ginkgo Biloba being possibly dangerous if taken too often, I am not willing to start emphatically that is not true. But I have researched for hours on this herb and cannot find a credible study that indicates this is the case.
I used to take 1 pill every day in the morning before breakfast. During my exam time I increased it to 2, one before breakfast and one before dinner. I started having horrible headaches. I thought it was because of the test stress but after my exams I quit Ginko biloba completely. The headaches stopped almost miraculously. I had a bit of anxiety after quitting and that’s when I realised I would create a dependency on it if I didn’t act quickly so I said goodbye to it since. Blueberries, curcumin, apple cider vinegar are other things I include in my regular diet which helps with anxiety and good brain health.
This is one of the best reviews I have seen. One the one hand the Dr specifically gives all the information leading to the positive aspects of GB and then very correctly states the things to look out for. It is the best review cause either you will have negation or you will have someone "super-hyping" a supplement. This review is enough for me to subscribe to the channel and look up more things regarding the Dr's research. Thumbs up!
Steve Commisso ... Well if it's so good , than how come he never once cited the study that's shown that ginko causes internal bleeding in the brain and elsewhere ? He even doubled down and said Ginko on its own can do this without any supporting medications . I'm not saying that ginko doesn't possibly do that , I just don't know , but it seems to me that this is another doctor that is trying to slow the supplement train down by telling you the great benefits and then scaring the shit out of you from ever trying it by telling you it has this huge side effect that can kill you , and all of this without giving any proof or citing of a controlled study
before taking ginko i had brain fog, tennis elbow, poor circulation to my legs which caused severe cramping when i went out for jogs. since taking ginko all those things have supsided and now i feel like im in the moment now. a sense of calrity
Thank you! I started taking Gingko Biloba last night because I have trouble remembering and I have noticed that I have been having hard time concentrating on what I needed to do on a daily basis.
you know what I have noticed that this past months I've been taking it, I've been more alert and my memory has been good, but on days that I missed taking it.. my memory slows down a little.. I don't know if its just cause I'm stressed or tired.
Ginkgo biloba, or maidenhair tree, is renowned worldwide for its medicinal properties. This remarkable tree is known as a 'living fossil', as it is the sole survivor of an ancient group of trees that date back to beyond the time of the dinosaurs. The maidenhair tree remains virtually unchanged today and represents the only living bridge between 'higher' and 'lower' plants (between ferns and conifers).
Very surprised to see so many negative comments for this video. He's just saying that taking too many things that dilate your blood vessels is bad for you.
Don't be a fool now, I like the color white and would pain my house white, I also like to wear white. Other colors as well, and sometimes with white and black. Though mostly white. It is not racism. lol.
I just bought this supplement, but after watching this video and reading the comments that are reporting negative side effects with this product, I am leaving right now to return it.
So I suggest that if anyone taking this for the first time, take only a quarter of that dosage to see what it does to you first 🤔 be mindful & careful with ginkgo bibloba can be too strong for some people. I had a bad experience with it and many other's have to.
taking ginkgo biloba Jamieson brand for 5 years.helps cognition and eye sight. thins blood to flow through small veins leading to eyes and brain. take once or twice a day.. have had no problems with it.
I experimented with it for several years in the hottest day of summer I would take a tablespoon of dry powder and steep it with my tea. I can go all day long on a bike and not be tired. I'm not young. I have had no negative side effects I recommend it highly to everyone that is still interested in an active life. And if you are a student at any age you will benefit tremendously . And this to your morning routine. Take a capsular or two of it. Ginkgo biloba is just leaves from a tree.
wow. been taking Excedrin with my Ginko. but idk, I'd imagine the mosquito bites all over my leg would have bled worse if it was effecting me like that. but I'll definitely proceed with caution
Great information,my dad is 85 yrs old with dimentia,he also had a mild stroke last yr that affected his left side, particularly his left hand which he says always feels really cold,do you think GINKO could possibly help him,and what dosage should he take and how often??? Thanks so much in advance..
Hi Doc , I use marcumar (blood tinner )en Atennol (heart beat reg.). In 2013 october , had a heart operation > I have done Aorta Valve transplantation , I don't have any problems .Doc I'm not sur if Ican use Ginko > Can you give me any advise Doc?
As far as my experience it enhanced my alertness a lot. It was more subtle though, and didn't make me anxious like adderall or such stimulants. However, it made it so I couldn't breathe that well and I felt a pressure on my chest each time I took it so I stopped.
This is true information, I hope you're believing the truth to protect yourself ok I love you all good health is a key to open happiness doors.no matter what...m
So if it gives one a higher risk of bleeding, it should not be considered as a supplement for someone who had a heavy stroke(vein bursted) a year and a half ago? When i heard about this plant, first thing that crossed my mind was that someone suffering from a stroke (one half of the body lacks feeling, and impaired speech) can further improve if taking the right ginko biloba supplement. If anyone knows something more for this specific case, please let me know. Thanks.
3:52. Could be dangerous if combined with an anticoagulant drug or any NSAIDs..... 1- COULD be, 2- don't combine, 3- Your statement is that gingko is dangerous if combined with NSAIDs and is backwards.... It's the NSAIDs that are dangerous if they are combined with gingko, heck the NSAIDs are dangerous without combining with anything.
Thank you, so much! I also like Curcimin, which works a lot like gingko, including blood thinning. So, I think I'll stick with the Curcimin alone. This powerful antioxidant should be enough, along with my other supplements. You may have saved my life. The Curcimin makes me bruise easily. So, THANKS again! GOD Bless!
If you suffer from insomnia or suffer with migraines, this herb may cause you harm, especially if you don't know how to give yourself the right dosage. I had scare with this after taking it for several days, it made me feel so dizzy ,like I was having outer body experiences and became nauseated & sick. I stopped it and I didn't feel like that again
"However, three placebo-controlled studies have failed to detect a significant effect for G. biloba on platelet function or coagulation (Bal Dit et al 2003, Jiang et al 2003, Kohler 2004). One was an escalating dose study that found that 120 mg, 240 mg or 480 mg given daily for 14 days did not alter platelet function or coagulation (Bal Dit et al 2003)."
There's loads of people saying he's hating on this herb, I didn't get that from him at all, he was just advising of the right dose to take because if you thin your blood and have a condition like say: von willebrand it could be fatal. All he's saying is there is a dose to take and he clearly listed the benefits.
Dr. Would you suggest taking supplements like Bacopa, biloba, l carnitine for student 18y.o for better study efficiency or it will not help. My diet is pretty healthy balanced and i sleep 7-9 hours
That’s why my mom gave it to me for my studies couse I’m big dumb but now I’m super anxious and im aware of every thing around me it’s super strong dam feels horrible doesn’t help with studies
I once knew someone who worked for an Alzheimer’s medical office who told me that ginkgo is dangerous and can cause brain bleeding. But there’s a reason our Creator made it with leaves that resemble brains and brain stems. It helps the brain.
i was taking this when i was lifting weights as i heard you could get a better mind muscle connection but i had to stop cause i was getting agonizing migraines and glad i did knowing now that it could have been bleeding internally
Hi Doctor Meschino Great information. I clicked on link but I do not find articles on Ginkgo. I have a ginkgo tree on my block and decided to pick a few up. I read so many positive things about ginkgo. I have a friend who has lyme disease and macular degeneration. As I am doing my research I found your youtube. I read only 5-8 a day no more then that to eat. I am interested in ginkgo to boost my memory. Can I email you on a personal note?? Thank You
there are at last two Gingo trees in a park near by, my question is Doctor can i use the leaves in Autumn when they start falling off the tree? or have by then past their use by date? many thanks for an informative video
I do feels that one side is it help with the blood flows n pushing out toxins where I do see it visibly but the process of it causing me going into allergies as I’m a person that allergic to pollens or dusky stuffs . Not at all I’m sick it just night time come when I took this medicine the last 3 months and I couldn’t wrap what the heck causing me other than I just add this med in 3 months n since then it keep making me feel weak at nights . This medication can be very dangerous if anyone with allergies as I come to many episodes like it choking on me .
Hey how are you? Can i take ginkgo biloba with beets juice(natural nitric oxide)? I would like to take one pill of 120mg of ginkgo and one beet juice in the morning and another ginkgo pill and beet juice before training at the afternoon. Thanks!
The Dr said it could help with diabetes and possibly lower blood pressure. I was going to order some from Amazon. But I read the back of the bottle it said DO NOT USE IF YOU HAVE DIABETES OR HBP.
@Spendapx,that may be true but the lab meds are far more dangerous.. I think we shouldn't use stuff over the limit that's when it becomes a direct effect. And there's no such thing as side effect...that's a miss knowma
I don't know why people is talking so bad about what Doctor's said.. he is just explaining the good effects and the side effects . Everything in this world has its pros and cons. Ginkgo didn't make any bad for you that's ok but, we aren't all the same we all have different reactions. If you are very healthy person and have no problem with any blood disorder then it's safer to take it . But there's an experience that happened to my mom when she took this medication that was combined on some vitamins she was taking and wich caused her a lot of menstrual bleeding for almost a month. And it was because she has a blood disorder called von willebrans disease wich causes a lack of cuagulation( so blood doesn't coagulate normally). And so ginkgo cause her bleeding as it's an anti-cuagulant . So it just not safe for some not for everyone .
Hes not. He just said all the benefits and risk so people like you don't get yourself killed. When taking herbs you have to remember you're doing it yourself and you are not a doctor. I get it the drug companies are evil but the FDA test and make sure modern medicine works and doesn't kill people. Of course it has side effects. You cannot have the good without the bad. So things like aspirin and ibuprofen have side effects as well but I'm sure you choke both of them down when you have a headache or pain so I wouldn't be talking. Think before you hate on this doctor cause it seems as though hes trying to actually help. All he said was just make sure you know what you're doing.
Dr. if this video was meant to scare; it really did not. There were more positive effects assigned to this plant than there were negative ones in this video.
I am hoping ginkgo will regrow/repair nerves damaged by Lyme disease, eyes. Ears, brain and dead nerves in feet. But we Lymies are already taking a lot of herbals and or meds. Wonder too if vessels are too damaged to use ginkgo.
is it ok to take with omega 3 from fish oil. if bleeding happens, it would stop by discontinuing medication ?can someone bring an update thanks btw link dead
I use tahini for pain when I get it. I wonder if it would be bad to take Ginkgo Biloba is I use the ground sesame? I do have low blood pressure. I have never seen it over a 100 and a 100 would be high for my blood pressure. Most people that get blood pressure as low as mine feel sick an lethargic Iv'e never taken medicine for my blood pressure because I think it is just my normal blood pressure, even when I was an older teen the nurses would say that I have blood pressure of a child. I am very athletic and I'm 40 now. I just wonder sometimes if my brain and body get enough blood circulation. I sleep with my legs elevated a couple times a week and I practice deep breathing, because I want circulation. I also like to try to get in touch with my genetic memories and I was wondering if Ginkgo might help. I like my brain to work for me at it's optimal level.
+Amy Bloom I just sleep with my legs elevated a couple days a week because I get paranoid about having lower blood pressure then what is considered normal. I practice deep breathing because I get paranoid of my low blood pressure.
The supplement suggested on his site is outrageously expensive, out of regular people's budgets. If you can afford it great, too bad for the rest of us.
Hi Dr. Meschino, I am a healthy 32 year old and on 37.5mg of plavix from 75mg for a blood clot I had which is dissolved. Can I continue to ween off plavix and use ginko eventually to replace the plavix in the future? Any thoughts or advice Doctor? Seems to me cardiologists should be considering natural alternatives like gingko, vitamin E, gingerol, tueric, Strauss Heart Drops etc. instead of anti-platelets and anticoagulants and even some heart meds.
+Kelly Barclay They would use natural alternatives if they could make money off it. But since they can't, nobody's allowed to know about how good they are.
