Do all ginkgo pills smell bad?

Question

I've been taking ginkgo tablets because I heard that they boost brain power. And it appears to be working -- based on my astute and intelligent answers here :-) But do they all have to smell putrid? Maybe I've got the wrong brand -- I bought these at Sam's club (there are like a 1000 pills in here.) thanks!

Answer 1

try Natures Bounty Ginko Biloba, they are in capsules, not tablets so they don't smell..you can pick them up at walgreens.

Answer 2

I took Milk Thrstle and Red Clover pills awhile ago and they smell bad too, it's not the brand. Many herbal pills just don't smell good, just hold your nose when your taking them.

You could try buying a different brand, if those smell the same then you know that the herb itself is just not pleasantly smelling.

Unfortunatly not all herbal remedies can smell like Roses.
