Product Description
Applied with rolipram, forskolin provides a route[further explanation needed] to inhibition of colon cancer cell growth and survival.These two drugs also work together to induce long-term potentiation in neuronal populations.Forskolin is a vasodilator.To date, there have been more than two clinical studies examining the effectiveness of forskolin as a weight loss aid. Only one has been subject to peer-review and published in a medical journal. This clinical study also observed forskolin's role in significantly increasing lean mass, bone mass, and testosterone in the subjects involved.This research has led to companies marketing forskolin as a bodybuilding supplement.
Coleus forskohli is a perennial member of the mint, or Lamiaceae. It is now grown around the world as an ornamental plant. Forskolin is a chemical found in the coleus herb that activates the enzyme adenylate cyclase. Andenylate cyclase compound initiates a myriad of critical events and processes within all the cells of the human body. Adenylate cyclase and the chemicals it activates are responsible for executing a number of important hormonal processes. Stimulation that is caused by forskolin supposedly leads to blood vessel dilation, inhibition of allergic reactions, and possibly an increased secretion of thyroid hormone. Forskolin has other reported uses as well, including inhibition of the pro-inflammatory substance known as platelet-activating factor (PAF) 6 and inhibition of the spread of cancer cells.
