Headaches aboundJun 15, 2010
By Bob Arctor I'm not sure about this stuff. I used to take Ginkgo and have no problems. When I ran out, I got this stuff at the suggestion of the store's employee. I'm sure it does help with mental sharpness, but 2 out of 3 times using it I have experienced headaches as a side effect. Mind you, this was only from a single 60 mg tablet. I don't think I'll be using this much anymore.

Good stuff, but watch out for...Jun 22, 2009
By Keclipce This stuff really work!
Every time i take them after a while of no taking them, I experience a huge boost in memory and brain processing power.
But there is a downside:
1) I've heard one of the side effects of using Ginkgo, reported by people and also during clinical trial, is headache! Somehow some people experience headaches. They said you should stop taking Ginkgo immediately when you experience headache.
I do get headaches after about a week or two of taking Ginkgold. Also for me I can only take once a day without having headache for a week or two. Once the headache starts I stop taking it for while.
2) I have experienced a sort of drug tolerance with Ginkgold. After two weeks I don't feel the mental sharpness anymore. I feel sort of dull! Unless I take higher dose of Ginkgold.
In general if you won't experience headache I would recommend this to anyone. If you are experiecing tolerance effects, I would recommend taking a break and start it again after a month or so.
This stuff is great for students during final weeks, or for athletes. In order for this to be effective on your important days, give it a couple days of head start.

All Ginkgo Is Not The Same, This Is the Ginkgo That Works!Dec 25, 2011
By Nicholas Winn
"E-Bike Enthusiast"
There are approximately 3 different Grades of Ginkgo Biloba Extract 24/6 on the Market in the United States
1st Which makes up approximately 70%-80% of the Market.
Gingkgo 24/6 that is adulterated with Rutin to raise the level to 24.
This adulteration will only show up with very intensive tests that most manufacturers
don't want to do. Probably on purpose.
2nd Ginkgo Biloba USP Grade.
This is Ginkgo Biloba that meets the USP standard.
Not Adulterated.
3rd Ginkgo Biloba German Grade Pharmaceutical.
In Germany Ginkgo is prescription and the quality heavily regulated.
The standard is the highest. I believe but am not sure that it is referred to as EGb761
If you look on the packaging of Natures Way you will see that this product is made in Germany. The owner of this company is Schwabe, Schwabe has done extensive clinical testing of this Ginkgo Biloba and retrospective analysis of studies and has a patent on it.
The clinical data on efficacy of Ginkgo is sketchy, my theory is that this is because the Ginkgo used in many of the tests is not Schwabe German Pharamaceutical Grade. By the way In Germany Ginkgo is a pharmaceutical manufactured to a very high standard and one of the most popular Herbal supplements in Europe. Natures way is the same Ginkgo that researchers use in many clinical studies.
Years ago I tried a generic brand of Ginkgo and saw no effect, I tried it again recently along with Vinpocetine and my experience is below.
This is the highest quality Ginkgo you will find on the market. All Ginkgo is not equal, If you've
tried Ginkgo in the past and not seen a benefit (Like Me), unless it is Pharmaceutical German Grade such as Natures Way (Can't find on Amazon) you
should try this.

My Experience:
1st I should mention that I began taking this along with Jarrows VinpocetineJarrow Formulas Vinpocetine, 100 Capsules. Jarrows like Natures Way is a company I trust.
I began by taking 2 60mg (120mg Total)of Ginkgo and 2 5mg of Vinpocetine.
I had insomnia and headaches.
I lowered the dosage to 1 Ginko Biloba 60mg and the side effects went away. The change in my mental outlook is tremendous.
I feel much more clarity and alertness. I'm also more sociable. I do believe that it truly does increase my
short term memory and possibly even my long term memory. It also fights depression and I believe that my mood has been elevated.
I can't rate the Gingko alone because I've only tried it synergetically with Vinpocetine.
I will state that if you have headaches, try cutting the Ginkgo pill in 1/2, this is powerful Ginkgo and you may be more sensitive to these compounds.
Also that I was glad I bought the 60 mg tabs even though the recommended therapeutical dosage is 120mg

Shipping way too Much!!!!!!!Apr 18, 2009
By Robert Chubb Product is excellent.However, I can purchase the same item locally at a Health Food store for LESS money! How about that? Why? Because of the extremely unfair shipping costs!! Won't be back!

Easy to SwallowAug 30, 2008
By New Grandma I have been looking for this type of supplement that would be easy to swallow. Many I tried were huge pills, and often caused lingering pain in the esophagus. This one is small, coated and goes down easily. Five stars!
