Contain Powerful Antioxidants

Many of ginkgo's health claims may be due to its high antioxidant concentration. Ginkgo includes a high concentration of flavonoids and terpenoids, which are antioxidant chemicals. Antioxidants protect against or mitigate the harmful effects of free radicals. Free radicals are highly reactive particles created by the body during regular metabolic operations such as food conversion and detoxification.

They may, however, cause harm to healthy tissues, resulting in accelerated aging and disease development. The antioxidant benefits of ginkgo are being studied. However, it is not apparent how it works or how useful it may be in treating certain disorders.
