Coleus Forskohlii extract is extracted from the root of Coleus Forskohlii. The active ingredient is forskohlin which compound used in weight loss and lean mass management. Coleus forskohlii has been traditionally used to treat high blood pressure. Other benefits include improving digestion and nutrient absorption, fighting cancer, and immune system support. Forskolin has been shown to be safe and effective and has a great amount of potential as a sports supplement. There are several benefits to athletes including relaxation of the arteries and smooth muscles, lowering blood pressure, enhanced secretion; which can help drive carbohydrates and protein into muscle cells for energy and recovery, increased thyroid hormone function; which can help enhance metabolic rate, and significantly increase lipolysis.

1. Coleus forskohlii extract:Its effects can lower blood pressure.
2. Coleus forskohlii extract: Inhibit allergic reactions, and promote the secretion of thyroxine.
3. Coleus forskohlii extract: other benefits of foskolin are also significant, including inhibiting
inflammation such as platelet-activating factor (PAF) 6 and inhibiting the spread of cancer cells.
