Ginkgo biloba has been used as a cardio- and cerebrovascular nutraceutical for centuries, and research suggests it has promising use for stroke recovery.
This special issue “Antioxidants in age-related diseases and anti-aging strategies,” which includes five research articles, four review reports, and a systematic review and meta-analysis, adds new contributions that describe the mechanisms by which oxidative stress and the factors Inflammatories cause the appearance or progression of age-related chronic diseases, as well as new strategies to treat or prevent these pathological conditions. In a review Ginkgo biloba (GB) has health benefits for memory and cognition, AD, Parkinson's disease (PD) and dementia, which are attributed to its antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic activities. Additionally, GB may exert benefits in cardiovascular conditions, hypertension, insulin resistance, fasting serum glucose, glycated hemoglobin, and dyslipidemia. Additionally, it can improve cerebral blood flow supply, executive function, attention/concentration and non-verbal memory and decrease stress. Bioactive compounds, mainly polyphenols, flavonoids, terpenoids and organic acids, are responsible for the beneficial effects.
