With its characteristic fan-shaped leaves and a history stretching back millions of years, it is no surprise that the tree is often referred to as a&nbsp;<em>living fossil<\/em>&nbsp;mentioned.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the ginkgo is more than just an extraordinary tree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Extracts from the leaves have been used for a long time and are now among the most extensively researched botanical extracts in the field of&nbsp;<strong>cognitive function, memory and attention<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Research into standardised Ginkgo extracts has yielded interesting results across various cognitive domains. At the same time, Ginkgo clearly illustrates why, when it comes to botanicals, it is not only the plant itself that is important, but also&nbsp;<strong>the extract used, its standardisation and the concentration of characteristic plant compounds<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What makes Ginkgo biloba so interesting? What do we know from research? And why has this botanical been included in both&nbsp;<strong>Wise Rootz Focus Force<\/strong>&nbsp;if our&nbsp;<strong>Full Focus microdosing box<\/strong>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-een-botanical-met-een-uitzonderlijke-geschiedenis\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">A botanical with an extraordinary history<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ginkgo biloba belongs to a lineage of plants dating back hundreds of millions of years. Today, Ginkgo biloba is the only surviving species in the Ginkgoaceae family.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The tree originates from China and has a long history of traditional use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In modern scientific research, the focus is primarily on extracts from the&nbsp;<strong>Ginkgo leaf<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These leaves contain various characteristic plant compounds, including&nbsp;<strong>flavonoids and terpene lactones<\/strong>&nbsp;such as ginkgolides and bilobalide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is precisely this unique chemical composition that has made ginkgo an interesting subject in research into the brain and cognitive function.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-waarom-wordt-ginkgo-onderzocht-voor-de-hersenen\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why is ginkgo being studied for its effects on the brain?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our brains are among the body\u2019s most energy-intensive organs. They rely on a constant supply of oxygen and glucose, as well as on properly functioning biological processes, to process information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ginkgo is being studied in relation to various mechanisms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-flavonoiden-en-antioxidatieve-activiteit\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Flavonoids and antioxidant activity<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ginkgo leaves contain various flavonoids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These plant compounds are of interest because of their antioxidant properties. Antioxidant processes help protect cells against oxidative stress \u2014 an important area of research in brain health and <a href=\"https:\/\/wiserootz.nl\/en\/healthy-ageing-healthspan\/\">healthy ageing.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-ginkgoliden-en-bilobalide\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ginkgolides and bilobalide<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A second characteristic group of compounds in Ginkgo consists of&nbsp;<strong>terpene lactones<\/strong>, including ginkgolides and bilobalide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These compounds are characteristic of ginkgo extracts and are being investigated for various biological activities that may be relevant to the nervous system and cognitive processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-bloedcirculatie\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Blood circulation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The relationship between ginkgo extracts and blood circulation is also the subject of research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That is interesting from a cognitive perspective, because the brain depends on a constant supply of oxygen and nutrients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Together, these various compounds and mechanisms make Ginkgo a particularly interesting botanical in research into cognitive health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-wat-zegt-onderzoek-over-ginkgo-en-cognitieve-functie\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What does the research say about ginkgo and cognitive function?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ginkgo is one of the botanicals that has now been the subject of a considerable amount of clinical research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A systematic review published in 2023 examined the standardised Ginkgo extract&nbsp;<strong>EGb 761<\/strong>&nbsp;in people with mild neurocognitive disorders. The researchers analysed nine randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled studies involving a total of&nbsp;<strong>946 participants<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In eight of the nine studies, favourable results were found in neuropsychological tests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Significant effects were reported across various cognitive domains, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>memory;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>attention;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>processing speed;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>executive functions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This makes Ginkgo particularly interesting from a cognitive perspective.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A comprehensive overview of systematic reviews from 2025 also examined the research into EGb 761. Particularly in the field of neurocognitive disorders, a large proportion of the included reviews reported positive results for cognitive outcomes.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Moreover, research into ginkgo continues to advance. This makes ginkgo a botanical with an exceptionally rich scientific history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"572\" src=\"https:\/\/wiserootz.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/ginkgo-biloba-focus-cognitieve-functie-1024x572.jpg\" alt=\"Ginkgo biloba leaves\" class=\"wp-image-13804\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wiserootz.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/ginkgo-biloba-focus-cognitieve-functie-1024x572.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/wiserootz.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/ginkgo-biloba-focus-cognitieve-functie-300x167.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wiserootz.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/ginkgo-biloba-focus-cognitieve-functie-768x429.jpg 768w, https:\/\/wiserootz.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/ginkgo-biloba-focus-cognitieve-functie-18x10.jpg 18w, https:\/\/wiserootz.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/ginkgo-biloba-focus-cognitieve-functie-600x335.jpg 600w, https:\/\/wiserootz.nl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/08\/ginkgo-biloba-focus-cognitieve-functie.jpg 1376w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-en-als-je-gewoon-geinteresseerd-bent-in-focus-en-mentale-scherpte\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">And what if you\u2019re simply interested in focus and mental sharpness?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Most clinical research into ginkgo focuses on people with cognitive symptoms or neurocognitive disorders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yet it is precisely the areas examined \u2014&nbsp;<strong>attention, memory, information processing and executive functions<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2014 this is interesting when we take a broader view of cognitive performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can read more about how attention works \u2014 from cognitive stability to mind-wandering and switching between tasks \u2014 in our in-depth feature on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/wiserootz.nl\/en\/improve-focus\/\"><strong>focus and attention<\/strong>.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One detail is essential here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Ginkgo biloba is not necessarily the same as every Ginkgo biloba extract.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A simple powder made from ground leaves and a precisely standardised extract are two different products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And that, in fact, brings us to an important aspect of how we at Wise Rootz view botanicals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-niet-ieder-ginkgo-extract-is-hetzelfde\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Not all Ginkgo extracts are the same<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When reading scientific research on botanicals, it is important to look at&nbsp;<strong>which extract has actually been studied<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With Ginkgo, you might want to look out for the following, amongst other things:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>the part of the plant used;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>the extraction method;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>the extraction ratio;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>standardisation;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>the concentration of characteristic plant compounds;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>the quality and purity of the raw material.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A great deal of clinical research into Ginkgo has been carried out using&nbsp;<strong>EGb 761<\/strong>, a specifically standardised extract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">That does not mean that this extract alone is interesting.
