Why It Works
Benefits
DHC Forskolin works through the bioactive compound forskolin, extracted from Coleus forskohlii root, combined with B vitamins for comprehensive support.
Supports Healthy Metabolism
Forskolin, the active compound in Coleus forskohlii, activates adenylate cyclase, an enzyme that increases cyclic AMP (cAMP) levels in cells. This biochemical process supports metabolic function, helping the body's natural fat metabolism processes while preserving lean body mass.
Traditional Ayurvedic ingredientHelps Maintain Lean Body Mass
DHC Forskolin focuses on supporting lean body mass (LBM) - the weight of your muscles, organs, and bones excluding body fat. People with higher LBM tend to have more efficient calorie burning. This supplement supports body composition when combined with balanced nutrition.
LBM-focused formulaEnergy Metabolism Support
The formula is enhanced with B vitamins (B1, B2, B6), which play essential cofactor roles in energy metabolism. These vitamins help convert nutrients from food into usable energy, supporting your body's natural metabolic processes throughout the day.
B vitamin enhancedNatural Plant-Based Formula
DHC Forskolin uses Coleus forskohlii extract from the mint family plant native to South Asia. This natural, plant-based approach provides targeted nutritional support without artificial stimulants, making it suitable for those preferring natural supplement ingredients.
Natural plant extractThe Science
How It Works
Understanding how DHC Forskolin supports your body's natural metabolic processes.
Lean Body Mass (LBM) Support
People with higher LBM tend to burn calories more efficiently because muscle tissue requires more energy to maintain than fat tissue.
DHC Forskolin focuses on supporting LBM, helping you maintain muscle mass while managing body composition through diet and exercise.
Forskolin Mechanism
This biochemical cascade supports metabolic processes, including the activation of hormone-sensitive lipase enzymes that help break down stored fats within adipocytes (fat cells).
This mechanism supports fat metabolism while helping preserve lean body mass.
B Vitamin Synergy
- Vitamin B1 (thiamin) supports carbohydrate metabolism
- Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) helps convert food to energy
- Vitamin B6 (pyridoxine) supports protein metabolism
