Forskolin (Coleus forskohlii)
Coleus barbatus
With an adrenaline-like signal, it drove fat release and blood flow in living human fat beyond the signal alone.
What the evidence shows
Every line below is carried on the blend page that makes the claim. Follow it to the pathway and its sources.
Forskolin raises cAMP, the messenger that tells pigment cells to switch on tyrosinase and fill the hair shaft with color as each strand grows out.
From the root of Coleus forskohlii: forskolin raises cyclic AMP, the internal messenger that tells testicular cells to make more testosterone.
From the coleus root: forskolin raises cAMP in the eye's fluid-making tissue, slowing production so pressure on the optic nerve falls.
In human fat cells, forskolin drove the release of stored fat by switching on the messenger-making enzyme directly.
Moves insulin, not the tape measure: over twelve weeks fasting insulin fell where placebo's drifted up, and insulin resistance followed.
