I've used forskolin in the lab, it's an adenylyl cyclase activator. We use it in tissue culture experiments when we want to elevate cAMP levels within the cells. cAMP is what's known as a second messenger, and is necessary for the activation of a variety of signaling pathways.

I have been using Garcinia Cambogia note for about 5 months. Taking it, along with keeping a daily journal of what I eat, taking time for exercise daily, I went from 328 to 264. The Garcinia Cambogia eats fat cells before they are ever stored.. As I understand it. I am a Nurse.. I recommend to try it. It can, unfortunately, may have adverse reactions with prescribed medications and results from taking it vary.0

Me too...maybe that's what it's made of?? Oh Lord.
Here's a good rule of thumb I use when dealing with Dr. Oz and his ilk...
Whatever Dr. Oz recommends, I then do the opposite.
And this is why I'm friends with both of you... because I'm nestled in the gutter between you guys.
Fore!!

Do you think maybe keeping a record of what you eat and exercising helped you more than the Garcinia?
And for what it's worth... I'm a nurse too and I say avoid "miricle cures"0 -

Ah, you lost weight, because you were in a deficit. You lost money because you wasted it on magic pills.
