Forskolin
Absolute Forskolin is a non-nutrient/non-botanical supplement providing 125 mg of Forskolin per capsule. This product received an N+ Score of 45, earning an 'F' grade, indicating a below-average quality assessment by Nutrienting. Forskolin is commonly studied for its potential effects on metabolism and body composition. While 125 mg of Forskolin is present, it is often recommended to look for standardized extracts providing a specific percentage of active forskolin, typically 10-20%, at doses of 250-500 mg of the extract, meaning the 125 mg might be underdosed for clinical efficacy. The product lists only one active ingredient, offering limited formulation complexity. Consumers interested in Forskolin may consider this, but its low N+ Score and potential underdosing suggest more effective options may exist.
