A member asked:
What is known about the effectiveness and safety of ginko biloba for memory problems?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A fair amount: Some pretty good studies were performed last year to try and show how effective this very safe supplement was at improving memory.The studies did not show any benefit and I have stopped recommending ginko.So:it is probably safe but hasn't proven effective.
