Can you please tell me why it'sadviceable for cancer patients not to take gingko biloba ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
News to me: Ginkgo is an interested botanical that clearly has real effects & benefits some people. Most of the studies i've seen have not supported the biggest claims, and you may have been warned that it is not a cancer cure. There's even been some interest in this stuff as an adjuvant for chemotherapy. Get with your physician and/or a consultant who really knows the botanicals.
