A member asked:
Is ginkgo biloba effective for treating multiple sclerosis and dementia?
8 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: This has been subjected to several clinical trials of good quality and there is no measurable effect. Note also that consumer reports notes that the ginko in the bottle is unregulated and may vary from what the bottle states, but more commonly is less or none.
