1. What is Coleus forskohilii?

Coleus forskohlii, or Indian nettle, nourishment, kolus, or just forskolin is an Asian plant, similar to Polish nettle, which differs from it primarily due to its coloration.

2. Who should use forskolin?

Forskolin is primarily used in all weight loss therapies due to its reducing properties. Thanks to this property it is also used in bodybuilding and other sports disciplines. Some texts mention its use in the treatment of cardiovascular, respiratory, urinary and insomnia.

3. Impact on the body

Forskolin is responsible for helping the body in the synthesis of thyroid hormones and stimulating the pancreas to secrete insulin. This latter property is particularly used in the course of slimming and combating excessive body weight.

What’s more, forskolin is responsible for:

– inhibiting the synthesis of fatty compounds in cells;

– reduction of fatigue;

– stimulation of digestive processes;

– increase in cAMP concentration in cells.

Contraindication to the use of forskolin is hypersensitivity to this compound.

4. Supplementation

Forskolin should be dosed with 250 mg of the supplement, which contains a 10% concentration of this compound. In order to achieve the expected results, it is recommended to use it twice a day.
