白果为我国特产——第四纪冰川时期前欧洲和北美也有白果树(银杏),冰川一肆虐,它们全绝灭了,只我国天目山区才能幸免。难怪如今浙江长兴、临安、桐庐、建德等地多见银杏。当然,他省栽培的也不少,如苏州,有一年秋天我去洞庭西山,在消夏湾见到成群银杏,果实被击落在地,果肉任其腐烂,以便获取果核。西山白果叫“洞庭王”。果核长尖。江苏泰兴盛产白果,我买过,果核比一般的大得多。 由于白果有收效性,所以能缩小便,这一点《本草纲目》有记载。传说古代有位大臣,有尿急病,怕上朝时站立时间长了熬不住,就在上朝前吃炒熟的白果。有的和尚也采用此法,以防打坐时间长了憋不住。有位老人,尽管控 Ginkgo was a specialty of our country.

This is stated in the “Compendium of Materia Medica”. According to the legend, there was a minister in ancient times who had acute urgency. He was afraid that when he stood up for a long time, he couldn’t hold it, and he would eat the fried ginkgo on the front. Some monks also use this method to prevent meditation for a long time.
