Ginkgoselect Phytosome: better bioavailability, improved action
Ginkgoselect Phytosome : better bioavailability, improved action. ®
Ginkgo biloba L. leaf extract is among the most popular over-the-counter medicines in Europe. The standardised extract contains 24% ginkgoflavonglucosides, 6% terpenoids and less than 5 ppm ginkgolic acids. Major therapeutic indications include disturbances of cerebral functions directly linked to impaired cerebral circulation (memory problems, dizziness, tinnitus, confusion, changes in social behaviour, lack of initiative and dementia) and peripheral vascular insufficiency (i.e. intermittent claudication).
Antioxidant potential enhancement Unfortunately, several studies have highlighted the poor oral availability of the product. But recent research by Indena shows that this can be improved by complexing the extract with soy phosphatidylcholine, as in ® GINKGOSELECT PHYTOSOME . Numerous studies both on animals and human volunteers have shown that ® GINKGOSELECT PHYTOSOME is not only more biovailable, but also much more active than the uncomplexed form in enhancing the total radical antioxidant potential of plasma and brain, in counteracting ischemia/reperfusion processes and in controlling experimentally introduced bronchospasm.
