Gingko Biloba: PAK GOU tea


http://ann-mythoughtsandphotos.blogspot.com/2009/04/gingko-biloba-pak-gou.html

In this post of the gingko tree in my other blog, I expressed my happiness in finding that there are Gingko trees in parks in Auckland.

Since then, I found out that Gingko makes a very good tea which stop forgetfulness.

I watched a TV series of ethnobotanist James Wong who investigates tree-based remedies for everyday ailments. He says Ginkgo tea is for memory. Just crush a few leaves and steep in hot water. http://christianhoughonline.com/blog/natural-remedies-by-james-wong/

As I type this post, I am drinking my Gingko tea from the leaves I plucked from the tree at One tree hill.

This is for Tammie Lee http://miztlee.blogspot.com/ May be she might find a gingko tree in her area, as there are many in America.

Hi Ann,
This is so very sweet of you! In a mysterious way this is oh so perfect for me. I have the worst memory! So folks that know me think... that i have a good memory and in some ways I do, but in common ways.... oh my gosh I have a horrible one. So I think that ginko is talking to me through you! Time for me to get to know ginko more intimately and drink its tea. Thank you. I will go and see your other post too! big hug.
