Late last year, initial results from GEMS, the Ginkgo Evaluation of Memory Study, showed that ginkgo did not prevent older people from developing Alzheimer’s or other dementias during a six year follow up period.
But did it help prevent smaller changes in memory and thinking in study participants? What about the milder memory loss considered normal with aging? In an analysis of GEMS data published this week, ginkgo failed to slow these smaller declines in memory as well.
