Protective effects of chronic treatment with a standardized extract of Ginkgo biloba L. in the prefrontal cortex and dorsal hippocampus of middle-aged rats - Behav Brain Res. 2016 Jul 13 - "prefrontal cortex (PFC) and dorsal hippocampus (DH) ... Behavioural data showed that EGb treatment improved short-term memory. Neither an anti-anxiety effect nor a change in locomotor activity was observed. Twenty-four hours after the behavioural tests, the rats were decapitated, and the PFC and DH were quickly dissected out and prepared for the comet assay. The levels of DNA damage in the PFC were significantly lower in rats that were treated with 1.0g.kg-1 EGb. Both doses of EGb decreased H2O2-induced DNA breakage in cortical cells, whereas the levels of DNA damage in the EGb-treated animals were significantly lower than those in the control animals ... Altogether, our data provide the first demonstration that chronic EGb treatment improved the short-term memory of middle-aged rats, an effect that could be associated with a reduction in free radical production in the PFC. These data suggest that EGb treatment might increase the survival of cortical neurons and corroborate and extend the view that EGb has protective and therapeutic properties" - See Ginkgo biloba at Amazon.com.
I bought one of these and it works great on my induction stove. Best boneless, skinless broiled chicken thighs I've had. I marinated it in Hunt's original barbecue sauce for a couple hours. I pre-heated the grill then brushed it with olive oil. Then put on the chicken and brushed it with olive oil then Morton Lite salt and pepper then immediately flipped it and did the other side then cooked both sides for six and a half minutes. Came out perfect. Better than the outside gas barbecue grill and way less hassle. 2214 reviews with an average 4.5 stars. They can't all be wrong.
