Really makes a difference ...
I was very surprised at how effective this is. As I get older, I'm finding it more difficult to focus on things, and my short-term memory seems to be "spotty." Nothing major, but enough that it's annoying, almost like a mild case of adult attention deficit disorder -- I was easily distracted, couldn't seem to finish projects, etc. A doctor friend suggested I give this a try. I honestly wasn't expecting much. But I was pleasantly surprised. The effect was apparent within a couple of days for me. I noticed an increase in energy, and less "fragmented" focus. I could start a task and easily finish it quickly, without getting pulled into some tangential project. After taking it for about 8 months, I decided to test and see how I would react by NOT taking it for a few weeks. Again, I noticed the difference fairly quickly. The fuzzy thinking returned, the distraction-driven tasks and projects, etc. That was enough for me to start taking it again. This product, combined with a doctor-recommended increase in Vitamin D3, have had a major impact on my overall mood. My house is cleaner, too, now that I can start and complete a specific task without launching into a half dozen others, and not finishing any of them! :-) Since this is the only brand of Ginkgo that I've tried, I can't compare it to others. All I know is this one is effective, and I plan to continue purchasing it as long as it's available. I currently have it on "subscribe and save" so that I won't forget to order it.
