Ginkgo biloba is the oldest tree species in the world, and knowledge of the active components of ginkgo leaves has been used in Asia for centuries. Pure Encapsulations Ginkgo forte extract is standardized for value-determining components (24% ginkgo heterosides and 6% terpene lactones). Like all Pure Encapsulations plant extracts, Ginkgo forte extract is tested for, among other things, 70 different pesticides. This guarantees the product is free of pesticide residues.
 Ginkgo biloba serves as an additional source of energy for the body and also has neuroprotective properties (protecting brain cells from damage). Adequate amounts of ginkgo biloba improve memory and enhance learning ability. It also reduces the incidence of depression.
