Mortar and Pestle time - Ginkgo dose regime

[Ray200]

Taking Ginkgo daily has proved to be a disappointment. No benefit achieved. I'm going back to my tried and tested dosing with Ginkgo.

How: crushed tablet, for absorbing via the mouth

How much: Day 1 - 3 x 30g Ginkgo spread over (with crushed tablets that is 62mg in weight. 30mg Ginkgo and 32mg binding agent x 3)

When: Day 1 the dose

Day 2: Nothing

Day 3: Nothing

Day 4: Nothing or Repeat from Day 1

Effect: For me, reduced tinnitus down to silence at times happening sometime on Day 2 or Day 3 or both. I must add that on dose day, the tinnitus is slightly higher than normal. Something is going on, and that is reassuring more than annoying.

Speculation on how Ginkgo works: It could be that Ginkgo needs to disappear from our system to allow the next dose to be 'noticed'. If that is how the raw leaf works then I accept it. I'm no longer going to force the matter. So, this is (probably) my last Mortar and Pestle update. There being no further ground to go with it.
