Yes, but...: You can take them, but it won’t do you any good in any way. There is no convincing evidence that either of these is of any benefit whatsoever. Stop listening to your friends, TV commercials, & the high school graduate who works behind the counter at the vitamin store. Don’t waste your money on useless nostrums. Spend it on acquiring REAL KNOWLEDGE. Knowledge is power. Arm yourself.

Yes- details below: Both Gingko and Curcumin thin blood but are safe to take together.In general herbs that thin blood are good for us,just as low dose aspirin can prevent heart attacks and strokes.One should be cautious if on meds that thin blood or if you have a hereditary clotting disorder,but for the vast majority of people it's quite safe to take both.I have many patients who have combined these with no problem.
