histamine and other inflammatory compounds. Forskolin increases the
levels of the cellular messenger
cyclic Adenosine Monophosphate (cAMP) which is a major regulator of
fat-burning enzymes and a messenger that reacts with certain
hormones to direct metabolic changes inside cells. Therefore, it has
been chosen as a herb of choice in replacing ephedra and ma
huang for weight loss.
