Coleus Forskohlii

The value of the mint plant has long been understood and in use by indigenous cultures throughout the world. Its ability to prevent and treat gastrointestinal issues is almost unparalleled on the holistic market. Mint is continuing to go more main stream as science backs up the formerly unstudied findings of traditional herbologists.

Description

Coleus forskohlii is a member of the mint family, used extensively in Thailand and India both as a herb and as a medicinal treat for upset stomach. The roots of the plant contain forskolin, an inducer of the enzyme cAMP (cyclic Adenosine Mono-Phosphate). cAMP has been shown to activate the enzyme hormone sensitive lipase, which aids in breaking down fat stores.

Benefits

  • Researchers have found that adding forskolin to muscle cells breaks down glycogen to glucose
  • Coleus forskohlii breaks down fat into fatty acids that can be used and excreted by the body, thus it increases lean body mass while reducing weight
  • Aids digestion and is widely used to treat stomach problems and menstrual cramps
  • When applied to the eyes (by way of eye drops), research has shown it relieves pressure in glaucoma sufferers

Safety Notes

Patients taking a blood thinner should avoid supplements with Coleus forskohlii. Orovo recommends that you consult a physician before you begin taking any new health supplement blend.
