> Unfortunately, some people are more sensitive to one particular function of ginkgo....it inhibits neurohormone production. Sex hormones are neurotransmitters in the brain (we see the complexity of the brain increasing all the time, eh?), and ginkgo shifts the balance of male/female hormone levels. Maybe you went blonde?
Larry,
Are you ONLY referring to testosterone/estrogen here? I just started taking Ginkgo and finding it handles my excess cortisol. Do you recommend this supplement? If so any dosing advice to makimize effect and minimize side effects?
Thanks,
Shawn
