I would like to better my mental ability, specially with midterms coming up, and was referred to ginseng and ginkgo biloba. Since I can't pick between the two, and I don't like pills I decided to drink their teas. Would that diet work? One cup of each a day.

Or does anyone recommend either or to avoid taking both?

Ginseng and Ginkgo are going to work better TOGETHER than separately. And they're going to work best for about 4 hours after you consume them. No sense taking Ginkgo at night.

Here's another solution to the non-pill thing. Herbs, Etc. makes a liquid extract called "Remember Now" that is alcohol based. You just put the drops in some fruit juice or water and drink. It has Ginkgo, Gotu Kola and Eleuthero (aka Siberian Ginseng) as well as other herbs. You can order it online: http://www.herbsetc.com/Shopping/r/remember_now.htm

Or you can buy Ginkgo & Ginseng as liquid extracts and make your own combo. The extracts are stronger than any tea you can mix up.

A bright brain depends on good blood circulation, balanced meals, good assimulation in the intestines, exercise, regular sleep, BREATHING, meditation, and some herbs. Attitude will help. No cigarettes, alcohol, preservatives, or Big Macs. Lots of raw fruit and vegetables. Fiber from nuts, seeds, and grains will help. See now wasn't that easy?

Hello,
it is ok to take both herbs daily. They are both safe. Just to let you know the pills are usually stronger in mg's. For your studies and or mid terms i would suggest taking an amino acid called L-phenylalanine, it boosts your concentraiton levels to an astounding level. Its safe and you can buy it at GNC health food store
