Go With the Flow

We all know we have a circulatory system, but we may not be so aware of the various different parts of it. The microcirculation is the bit between the veins and the arteries, and whilst blood is flowing through this part it feeds oxygen and other nutrients to the surrounding tissues and organs. The microcirculation is therefore pretty vital and if it’s in poor shape we are more likely to suffer from such ailments as memory loss, tiredness, cold hands and feet, chilblains, etc.

Research carried out on A. Vogel’s Ginkgo biloba tablets showed very clearly the role that Ginkgo plays in improving the microcirculation and thus relieving a raft of common symptoms.

The research looked at patients of 60-70 years old, as this is the age group worst affected by poor microcirculation, experiencing all sorts of symptoms such as problems with memory, concentration, fatigue, and general feeling of not being able to cope as well as previously. Their microcirculation was assessed at the start of the trial and then at various points for 30 days.

It was seen that blood flow through the capillaries increased, and a number of unused capillaries opened up over the 30 days. The increase was actually apparent even after just10 days.

Another element looked at was the rate of blood flow in the small veins. By Day 30, this had dramatically improved.

The positive result on red blood cells was not the only thing identified. Due to the improved blood flow, the number of white blood cells in circulation increased. White blood cells will leave the circulation if it’s stagnant, and this has implications for immune function, as white blood cells identify and kill off bugs that get into the body. Improving the flow of blood to outlying areas will therefore also improve the ability of the immune system to do its job tracking and killing bugs.

All in all, the research showed decisively how effective Ginkgo is at increasing the efficiency of the circulatory system.

    I have tried ginko biloba but only a cheap version from a supermarket and didn.t get noticeable results however since then i have been using venaforce by a vogel and i could not believe the difference this product made absolutely fabulous…..it took all the pain away from my leg which i suffered with for 3 years and had been taking pain killers from dr which never touched it so i am a firm believer in their products and am always looking to see if there is anything that could help me in any way and thankyou

    I love your tintures, currently take crataegus, as I am sure they are more easily absorbed by the body than tablets. I would very much like to try gingko

  • Wendy Jackson, 329 days ago

    I have used gingko in the past and think it possibly did have a positive effect on my memory. I’m keen to try it again now I’ve seen your video.
    Is it true that gingko is more effective if you take a break in using it every few months?
    Is tthe case that your liquid gingko is likely to be more effective than the tablet form because it is more readily absorbed?

    • alison , 329 days ago

      No, there is no evidence to suggest that Ginkgo works better if taken with a break. Yes, the tincture would be more effective than tablets because it would absorb more efficiently.

    I have progressive MS, and whether or not it is the cause of my mottled freezing feet, is anyone’s guess. I had been thinking of giving Ginko a try, so thank you for this opportunity.

    • alison , 329 days ago

      Some people with MS do find Ginkgo helpful, but this is very individual (as indeed MS is). It is worth trying. If you take the tincture you should expect to see some hint of improvement within the first month.

    I believe ginkgo is recommended for asmtha related problems along with taking vitaim C and magnesium. I have tried this combination and it works. Ann barrett

    I have slow circulation and look forward to seeing the difference taking Ginkgo Biloba makes.

  • vivienne.boardman, 328 days ago

    i have only tried the cheap version from the supermarket of ginko biloba so looking forward to getting a vogels

  • Lisa Johnson-Richards, 326 days ago

    I have slow circulation and would be interested to know if taking Ginkgo Biloba would make a difference, thank you.

  • Ludmilla Kosmina, 326 days ago

    looking forward to trying it.

  • Julia Raban-Williams, 326 days ago

    I have very poor circulation in my legs – will look forward to seeing some improvement should the tablets work as you say they do.
