Ginkgo Biloba Extract (GBE) is a mixture of bioactive compounds extracted and purified from the dried leaves of Ginkgo biloba. Its principal active components are flavone glycosides and terpene lactones [1]. Among them, Ginkgolide B has been widely studied for its role in improving neurodegenerative disorders. As a “living fossil” plant that has survived for more than 200 million years, Ginkgo biloba has a long history of medicinal use. Modern research confirms that GBE is a high-value natural ingredient for improving cerebral blood circulation and supporting brain function.
