Coleus Forskolin Plant Extract

Weight Management & Obesity

Forskolin is used to aid in weight management by promoting lipolysis (the breakdown of fat) in fat cells. Some studies suggest it can increase lean body mass and free testosterone while decreasing fat mass in overweight/obese individuals.

Glaucoma Management

It is used to lower intraocular pressure (IOP) in glaucoma patients by reducing aqueous humor inflow, often considered a potential alternative to beta-blockers.

Asthma & Respiratory Disorders

Traditionally used for respiratory issues, forskolin acts as a bronchodilator by relaxing the bronchial smooth muscles, reducing bronchial reactivity, and alleviating asthma symptoms.

Cardiovascular Health

Due to its vasorelaxant and cardiotonic properties, it is used to improve heart function in cases of idiopathic congestive cardiomyopathy, reduce blood pressure, and improve circulation.

Metabolic Health & Diabetes

It is used to improve insulin sensitivity and boost thyroid hormone secretion, potentially supporting the management of type 2 diabetes and hypothyroidism.

Cancer Research

Studies indicate potential anti-tumor and anti-metastatic effects, inhibiting cancer cell growth and migration in various cancer models.

Neuroprotection

Emerging research suggests forskolin has neuroprotective properties, potentially aiding in treating neurodegenerative conditions like Alzheimer's by modulating glial cell activity and reducing neuroinflammation.
