Forskolin

Forskolin is well known as a weight loss supplement. I first heard about it when I went to see an ND and was diagnosed with hypothyroidism and adrenal fatigue. This product by VidaTribe has 250mg of 20% standardized extract.

The claim is that it does the following:

• Increases Metabolism
• Helps Burn Fat
• Suppress Appetite

 While studies have shown that it is helpful in aiding weight loss, I have used it for other things for my health, namely hypertension (high blood pressure). Between using forskolin and eating Ceylon cinnamon every day, I do not need to be on blood pressure meds! High blood pressure and heart disease run in my family so I need to watch out. (With the cinnamon, use something like THIS CINNAMON for the health benefits, as most cinnamon you get at the stores here in the US are fake Cassia cinnamon).

Forskolin is an extract from the plant Coleus forskohli.  Coleus has been traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine for a variety of conditions, including hypertension, asthma, eczema, psoriasis, congestive heart failure, and angina.  The effects of Forskolin have been intensively researched in in vitro, animal, and human clinical studies.



Forskolin is a centuries old Ayurvedic traditional medicine for expressing beneficial anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory properties. ~Recent research has shown that it can reduce the percentage of body fat and weight in individuals pursuing weight loss regimens.

Dosage: Take 2 capsules daily with 8 ounces of water.
