Materia Medica Lesson 7-10: Ginko Biloba

 MM says to use standardized extract. Tincture causes headache. I used to smoke it in a blend before a test.. with guto kola and ma huang.... like when I was 18-19.... seemed to help. With rotin and quercetin helps with impotence. Also helps with cochlear deafness and macular degeneration.

A lot of this is repeated info.

MM says bayberry, prickly ash and ginko are good for forgetfulness/senility
