Superior Ingredients Produce Superior Results
Why Arches Tinnitus Relief Formula® brings you the highest quality Ginkgo on the world market.

Many people assume when buying herbal supplements for the treatment of tinnitus (such as Ginkgo biloba) that most products are pretty much alike. Nothing could be further from the truth. While Ginkgo biloba is available in any health food store and many discount stores, individuals with tinnitus should exercise care when selecting a product. Due to the lack of regulation of the herbal and vitamin industry within the United States, most ginkgo products are of inferior quality.

Consumer Labs has tested many nationally recognized brands of Ginkgo biloba and found that less than half of them actually contain the ingredients listed on the label. Either they have less than the specified amount or they do not meet the minimum requirements for standardized 24/6 Ginkgo Biloba Extract (GBE).

Inferior quality ginkgo products are flooding the market at deceptively low prices. They are often high in"ginkgolic acid." Ginkgolic acid is a strong allergen that will cause severe allergic reactions and is related to the same acid found in poison ivy. Unfortunately, the Food & Drug Administration does not require ginkgolic acid content to be listed on product labels.

The Commission E (similar to our FDA) regulates the sale of all herbal medications in Germany. They will not allow any ginkgo product to be sold in Germany that has over 5 parts per million (PPM) of ginkgolic acid. Arches Tinnitus Relief Formula™ contains less than 1 PPM of ginkgolic acid, the lowest found on the world market. Many of the inferior brands can contain as much as 100 - 1000 PPM of ginkgolic acid. Also, these inferior brands are not manufactured to pharmaceutical standards and can contain other contaminates as well. Removing the ginkgolic acid requires a separate manufacturing process that is very expensive... but worth it!

There are indeed several high quality ginkgo products sold in the better health food stores. However, they are usually lower dosage capsules and are all much more expensive than TRF when you compare the total milligram content of each bottle of TRF (12,000 mg) versus the price.

Many companies use such harsh solvents as hexane or acetone (petroleum distillates) to process their extract and are processed only once. Petroleum distillates leave a poisonous residue when used to extract herbs. Arches ginkgo is extracted with ethyl alcohol and water - twice - to remove impurities. Most ginkgo growers use pesticides while Arches trees are all organically grown. Most ginkgo manufacturers also use machines to pull and shred the leaves off the tree. This causes the important terpene lactones (essential to tinnitus relief) to be immediately crushed and oxidized - losing all of their potential benefits. Our leaves are handpicked and then immediately dried to preserve the highest amount of useable terpene lactones.

Arches Tinnitus Relief Formula™

  • Highest quality GBE found on the world market at the lowest price (milligram vs. milligram).
  • Higher dosages - 120mg of Pharmaceutical GBE in each capsule.

  • Odorless Garlic which reduces stress, lowers cholesterol, and regulates blood pressure.
  • 100% organically raised ginkgo trees
  • Hand picked leaves - to protect the precious terpene lactones.
  • An extract high in Ginkgolide B - the most studied terpene lactone.
  • The leaves are extracted using grain ethyl alcohol and water and processed a second time to remove ginkgolic acids. No harsh chemicals or solvents are used!
  • Our extract contains less than 1PPM of ginkgolic acid - the lowest amount possible.

When you take Arches Tinnitus Relief Formula™ you can be certain that you are getting the highest quality ingredients that maintain a consistently high, pharmaceutically pure extract. We sincerely believe that Arches Tinnitus Relief Formula™ is far superior to any herbal or vitamin therapy found on the world market for the treatment of tinnitus.
