    Gingko Biloba, is it? I know one of my parents took something, and I can't remember (oh the irony) if it was that or ginseng. Dunno how good it was like.

    Know what you mean. My memory is horrible. Don't know why, either, but it's horrible, at times. Not all the time, but sometimes and it gets frustrating at times, but for me, I'm not too worried about it.

    But sorry, not sure of anything to help with it though.

    I know what you mean mate. I suffer from terrible short-term memory. I can walk into a room and totally forget why I went there. Always losing my keys or glasses.

    Things like stress, bad diet, low blood sugar and lack of exercise all contribute towards bad memory. I blame all these for my crap memory.

    But there other lthings that might contribute. Check out thesite for more info.

    Yep, Gingko Biloba is the herb that is reportd to help memory. Also, I don't know if you take drugs or smoke pot, but they usually have a good go at messing up your memory powers, so best to avoid 'em!
