Secrets of longevity: Beneficial properties of Ginkgo biloba. What are the beneficial properties of Ginkgo biloba and when is the best time to pick its leaves? How do you do it correctly to preserve the maximum amount of beneficial elements in them?
Ginkgo biloba is an ancient plant that has been around for over 270 million years. It has survived dinosaurs and the Ice Age and now grows in many parts of the world.
The tree's leaves can be harvested twice a year for medicinal use: in summer, when they are still green and full of vitamins, and in autumn, when they begin to turn yellow, taking on a beautiful golden colour, and fall to the ground.
Ginkgo biloba leaves contain more than 100 beneficial compounds, but their main effect is to increase blood circulation.
