GINGKO (Ginkgo biloba) is best known for improving mental functioning especially memory. That alone would qualify it as one of the best antiaging herbs.

But it also holds additional benefits such as reducing the risk of strokes and repair damaged nervous tissue.

Benefits of ginkgo are supported by more than 400 scientific studies. That’s one reason why it is a top seller in Germany and France.

MILK THISTLE (Silybum marianum) has a tradition of 2,000 years for liver disease. Research on its use extends back to the 1960s with over 400 scientific studies published on its use in treating liver disease.

The active component of the seed extract, silymarin, has been shown to change the cell structure of the outer liver membrane which prevents toxic chemicals from entering the liver. It also stimulates the liver’s ability to generate new liver cells.

Additionally, it is a powerful antioxidant for the liver. Germans use milk thistle for chronic inflammatory liver disorders such as hepatitis, cirrhosis and fat deposits caused by alcohol or other toxins.

Take a single dose of 140 mg of silymarin in 175 mg of milk thistle seed extract, 2 - 3x daily.

DANDELION (Taraxacum officinale) also qualifies as one of the better herbal remedies antiaging because it too helps keep liver, gallbladder and kidneys young by promoting their secretions.

It's also a tonic for impaired digestion.

Use the root to make tea. Use a couple of teaspoons of dried root steeped in a cup of hot water for about 15 minutes. Drink a cup in the morning and one at night. You can also take commercial preparations. Use as directed.

BLACK COHOSH (Cimicifuga racemosa) is one of the prime herbal remedies antiaging for women. It reduces the severity of hot flashes and improve mood during menopause. Germans use black cohosh hot flashes, depression and sleep disturbances.

Studies in Germany from the 1950s and recent controlled clinical studies published in the past decade demonstarte black cohosh is safe and effective . Take a daily dose of a liquid extract equivalent to 40 mg of dried black cohosh root. You can also make tea out of root and drink 2x a day.

SAW PALMETTO (Serenoa repens) is one of the main herbal remedies antiaging in men. Used for more than 100 years to prostate conditions, particularly benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). BPH features benign (noncancerous) enlargement of the prostate which causes several discomfiting symptoms.

The condition is affects more than 50 percent of men over fifty. The enlargement narrows the urethra which produces poor urinary flow, straining to urinate, painful urination, dripping urination, increased frequency of urination, and a feeling that the bladder is not fully empty.

Dozens of clinical studies, most conducted in Europe, where it is used a safe and effective treatment for BPH. Studies have confirmed that saw palmetto is as effective as a conventional drug in relieving BPH symptoms with fewer side effects. Other studies in the U.S. confirmed beneficial results in Europe.

Take a standardized product once or twice a day for a total dose of 320 mg.

HAWTHORN, of all the herbal remedies antiaging, may be the most valuable because it lends several benefits for the most important organ, the heart. Or is the brain the most important organ?

Regardless, doctors in Germany recommend hawthorn for diminished heart performance at the early stages of congestive heart failure, for angina pains, and to help in the recovery from heart attacks. Hawthorn also reduces pressure and anxiety in the heart area and mild forms of arrhythmias.

Personal note: Experiencing some palpitations a few years ago, reminiscent of same as a young child and teenager, hawthorn seemed to work almost immediately.

Studies show hawthorn helps increase the heart’s efficiency by increasing the blood supply to the heart muscle itself and by strengthening contractions. The heart then, pumps out more blood to the rest of the body.

No side effects or contraindications have been reported for hawthorn. Almost every study published on the use of hawthorn shows clinical effectiveness.

Hawthorn needs to be used for at least six weeks before results can be expected except for my case. Use under a doctor’s supervision. Take according to professional directions.
