Hi,
I know the answer to my query is to speak to my Dad's doctor, but I remember reading a long time ago that this herbal remedy can improve blood flow to the brain ..... and just a quick look on the Internet found lots of sites giving information.
One in particular is:
http://www.herbal-supplements-guide.com/ginkgo-biloba-herbal-remedy.html
..... amongst many others.
This site mentions it as being beneficial to the early stages of Altzheimers ..... but that anyone with heart problems or taking blood thinning drugs might need to take care.
There's also favourable info on the Alzheimers site itself:
http://www.alzheimers.org.uk/After_diagnosis/Treatments/info_complementary.htm
....... although it makes the point that the research isnt exhaustive.
So ..... just wondered if anyone here has tried any complementary medicine approaches and how they got on with it?
Thanks
Elaine
