How Does Coleus Forskohlii (Forskolin) Affect cAMP? A naturally generated compound known as cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is what we depend on activate hormonal functionality within all our cells. In 1971 Earl Sutherland won the Nobel Prize in medicine for his research on cAMP, the miracle compound that we seem to know so little about. Known as a second messenger, cAMP exerts control over numerous activities within each of our cells. It transfers instructions waiting on hormone receptor sites directly to the active inner cell components. Just think of having letters delivered to you personally by hand, instead of leaving them unread at the post office.If cAMP relays are impaired by excessive insulin (insulin resistance) then thyroid hormones lose their effect. So you gain weight and feel sluggish. Forskolin (dervived from Coleus Forskohlii) activates an enzyme called adenylate cyclase and this in turn increases our levels of cAMP. The thyroid hormones then kick into action, raise the metabolic level, zap fat cells and tip the fatty bits stored in your hips and buttocks into the bloodstream to fuel the fat burning fires. Forskolin provokes signalling agents within adipose (fat) tissue that attack this blubber to release fatty acids and glycerol into the bloodstream where they are extracted to provide adenosine triphosphate (ATP). This form of energy is consumed by cells in their nuclear power houses we call mitochondria.
