Ingredients explained
Ginkgo biloba leaf extract (24% ginkgoflavonglycosides, 6% terpene lactones)
Ginkgo flavonoids and terpene lactones may promote microcirculation by supporting vasodilation and healthy blood flow to delicate tissues.
Caution: May interact with anticoagulants and antiplatelet agents due to effects on platelet activity; stop before procedures as advised.
Vinpocetine
Vinpocetine is studied for enhancing cerebral microcirculation and modulating ion channels, which may support oxygen and nutrient delivery to neural tissues.
Caution: Not advised during pregnancy or breastfeeding and may lower blood pressure; consult a professional if using antihypertensives.
Acetyl L-Carnitine
Acetyl L-carnitine helps shuttle fatty acids into mitochondria and may support neuronal energy metabolism and neurotransmitter function.
Caution: May cause restlessness in some people; avoid close to bedtime if sensitive to stimulatory effects.
Alpha-lipoic acid
Alpha-lipoic acid functions as a mitochondrial cofactor and antioxidant that can recycle other antioxidants and help counter oxidative stress.
Caution: May affect blood sugar levels; monitor if using blood sugar–lowering therapies.
Butcher’s broom extract (10% ruscogenin)
Ruscogenins may support healthy venous tone and capillary integrity, aiding microvascular circulation.
Caution: May interact with blood pressure medications due to vascular effects; discontinue if gastrointestinal upset occurs.
How they work together
Ginkgo and butcher’s broom both focus on microvascular circulation, with ginkgo supporting vasodilation and butcher’s broom supporting venous tone and capillary integrity. Vinpocetine adds targeted support for microcirculation and neural oxygen delivery. Acetyl L-carnitine and alpha-lipoic acid provide mitochondrial and antioxidant support for nerve cells.
Safety and tips
Label Warning: For adults only. Do not use if you are pregnant, may become pregnant, or are breastfeeding. Consult a healthcare provider before use if you take blood-thinning medication, or if you have or have had a blood coagulation disorder or low blood pressure.
Who should be cautious: People who are sensitive to stimulatory botanicals or circulation-supporting herbs such as ginkgo or vinpocetine may wish to use caution. Those with planned surgery or bleeding risks should discuss timing and use with a healthcare professional. People with hypotension should monitor for light-headedness. If combining with anticoagulants or antiplatelet drugs, speak with a healthcare provider first.
