Why does it contain glycine if it is a ginkgo biloba supplement? — GINKGO TABLETS N40 40MG - EVALAR (Ginkgo Biloba)

Ginkgo biloba extract is the main component: its flavonol glycosides are associated with supporting microcirculation, that is, the flow of blood through small vessels. This is why ginkgo biloba is traditionally included in supplements aimed at concentration and mental clarity during periods of heavy mental workload.

Glycine is an amino acid involved in the functioning of the nervous system. Unlike ginkgo, it is more often associated not with microcirculation but with a calm state of mind and the ability to take in and retain information. It is for this reason that glycine often complements plant extracts in formulas for mental work.

So the two components act in different directions: one in the context of blood supply to the brain, the other in the context of the nervous system. This explains why they are present together in one tablet rather than being a random combination.

It is important to remember that this is a food supplement, not a medicine. If you take medicines that affect blood clotting or have chronic conditions, it is worth consulting a specialist before you start taking it.
