What It Actually Is
Coleus forskolii is a plant in the mint family, native to India, with roots traditionally used in Ayurvedic medicine. Its extract is standardized for a compound called forskolin.
What Research Generally Shows
Forskolin has been studied across a range of areas including cellular signaling pathways, with a smaller and more mixed research base than turmeric's curcuminoids specifically for inflammatory response.
Why It's Dosed At 15mg
15mg is a modest supporting dose in this formula — far below amounts used in some standalone forskolin studies (which often use hundreds of milligrams), reflecting its role as a supporting ingredient here rather than the primary compound.
