Procedure

  1. Market capsules use standardised ginkgo leaf extract — filling capsules with dry herb at home does not give a known flavonoid or ginkgolide content.
  2. Choose products with transparent labelling; do not exceed label doses.
  3. Interactions with anticoagulants and anti-epileptics — always inform your clinician.

Notes

Food supplements are not medicines; do not self-treat serious symptoms.

Why it works

Home preparation following this recipe is mainly educational and cultural; it should not be assumed to match the extractive or safety profile of registered medicines or standardized extracts. Check specific effects, drug interactions, and contraindications on the herb card and with your clinician if you use prescription drugs.
