Back 2 Nature ORGANIC GINKGO BILOBA POWDER

Ginkgo biloba, commonly known as ginkgo or gingko also known as the maidenhair tree,[ is a species of tree native to China. It is the only living species in the order Ginkgoales, which first appeared over 290 million years ago. Fossils very similar to the living species, belonging to the genus Ginkgo, extend back to the Middle Jurassic approximately 170 million years ago. The tree is widely cultivated, and was cultivated early in human history. Most ginkgo products are made with extract prepared from its fan-shaped leaves.

The most helpful components of ginkgo are believed to be flavonoids, which have powerful antioxidant qualities, and terpenoids, which help improve circulation by dilating blood vessels and reducing the "stickiness" of platelets[.blood circulation to the sexual organs  plus proper brain functions very vital for better sex]
