What is ForsLean?



01.ForsLean is manufactured by a proprietary process and is a     standardized extract from the roots of the Coleus forskohlii plant, the only known plant source of forskohlin.

ForsLean is a registered trademark of Sabinsa Corporation and is the only Coleus forskohlii preparation supported by US Patent # 5,804,596 defined as "….a method of preparing a forskohlin composition…and use of forskohlin for promoting lean body mass and treating mood disorders" . Canadian, European and Japanese patents are pending. Companies or individuals using any Coleus forskohlii preparation other than ForsLean รข in their respective product formulations, which suggest, imply or represent their products to promote lean body mass, fat loss and weight loss are infringing on Sabinsa's use patent for forskohlin.

Intended Application

The importance of maintaining or regaining lean body mass has recently come to light for two important reasons. First is the increased recognition that lean body mass plays a vital role in any successful weight training regimen, and second, there is a growing awareness that lean body mass is proportionate to the overall health of an individual.

Lean body mass is composed of muscle, vital organs, bone and bone marrow, connective tissue and body water. The percentage of lean body mass to fat not only determines the body's aesthetic appearance, but more importantly, it is also an index of physical fitness, health status, susceptibility to disease and premature mortality. Because the body's metabolic rate is directly proportional to the amount of lean body mass, there is substantial interest in products that safely increase lean body mass because they are most likely to work. The use of ForsLean may help to increase lean body mass and optimize body composition with one of the side effects being fat loss and/or weight loss.

A sluggish metabolic rate is an undesired effect of many weight-loss regimens. It was observed in one study that formerly obese subjects had a 3-5% lower resting metabolic rate than control subjects. The occurrence of a low resting metabolic rate is likely to contribute to the high rate of weight regain in formerly obese persons.

Clearly, we need to change and broaden our thinking on the objectives of weight management regimens for both active and not-so-active individuals. In particular, it should be emphasized that healthy functioning of the body depends not so much on a lower fat content, but rather on obtaining a higher percentage of lean body mass. Again, it should be kept in mind that it is not only fat, but also lean body mass that is, or can be, lost through dieting. This fact often escapes our attention when we reduce our total body weight. The loss of lean body mass offsets any benefits derived from the reduction of body weight, and can potentially increase one’s chances for diabetes, cardiovascular disease and possibly some forms of cancer due to poor metabolic activity.

Mechanism of Action

"ForsLean shifts the proportion between lean body mass and adipose, or fatty, tissue in favor of lean body mass, which improves overall health," explains Vladimir Badmaev, MD, PhD, Sabinsa Corporation’s Vice President, Scientific and Medical Affairs. "The effect can be measured by decreases in the waist hip ratio and the body mass index."

The mechanism of action on how ForsLean works is well defined (see attached stapled diagrams). Badmaev adds, "Forskohlin, the active compound in ForsLean, is recognized as an adenylate cyclase activator. Adenylate cyclase is the enzyme involved in the production of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), a significant biochemical agent in metabolic processes. The role of cyclic AMP is indispensable to many body functions. It induces a chain reaction of biochemical events that trigger metabolic processes and diet induced thermogenesis, thereby providing the means to maintain healthy body composition and lean body mass levels."

Proof of Efficacy Summary

ForsLean was tested in an open-field study with a population of six overweight women (BMI>25). The tested formula was in the form of two-piece, hard shell capsules; each capsule contained 250 mg of ForsLean. The overweight, but otherwise healthy women, received one capsule twice daily for eight weeks. Participants were instructed to take one capsule in the morning and one in the evening, half an hour before a meal. Each participant was asked to maintain her previous daily physical exercise and eating habits. In addition, physical activity was monitored based on a questionnaire before and during the trial.

During the eight week trial, the mean values for body weight and fat content significantly decreased, whereas lean body mass was significantly increased as compared to the baseline. Neither the systolic/diastolic blood pressure, nor the pulse rate was adversely affect during the trial. Indeed, a trend was observed of lower systolic/diastolic pressure during the course of treatment. A line graph is attached that shows actual results from this study.

Dosage form/delivery

ForsLean has been clinically evaluated at one dose, 250 mgs twice daily. This provides 50 mgs of forskohlin, the primary active compound in ForsLean. Dosage has been in the form of a two piece, hard shell capsule.

Sabinsa also offers standardized Coleus forskohlii extracts in concentrations of 1%, 20%, 40% and 95% forskohlin.

Additional information of interest

Currently two new studies have been undertaken to further explore the efficacy of ForsLean, one in the US and the other in Japan. Prior to these two studies, both LD50 analysis and AMES test were performed by independent laboratories in the US confirming the safe use of ForsLean

The US study is underway at the University of Memphis, Exercise & Sports Nutrition Laboratory. Twenty mildly obese female subjects between the ages of 18 to 40 have been recruited to participate in this study.

The study is designed as a double blind, placebo-controlled investigation of ForsLean versus a similarly matched placebo for 12 weeks. After baseline testing, subjects will be randomly assigned to ingest 2 capsules a day containing either ForsLean® or the placebo. (one capsule in the morning and one in the evening, half an hour before a meal). Each active capsule contains 250 mg of ForsLean®.

Analysis for this trial includes the overall assessment of select parameters, blood pressure, body composition and individual serological and hematological profiles. Subjective questionnaires to determine the subjects’ perception of the treatment and quality of life/lifestyle aspects will also be administered.

Dr. Tsuguyoshi Asano, a prominent Tokyo based Japanese physician who specializes in Internal medicine and bariatrics is the principle investigator in a 12-week study protocol including 20 overweight, but otherwise healthy, men and women who have a body mass index (BMI) 25-26. 250 mgs of ForsLean® will be administered twice a day in the form of a two-piece hard shell capsule. Each participant will receive a physical examination, and their blood biochemistry and body composition will be analyzed at the inception and after 4, 8 and 12 weeks of the study. ForsLean® has been cleared for nutritional use by the Japanese FDA.

As mentioned in the beginning, with Sabinsa’s discovery of the lean body mass/weight loss properties of forskohlin, which was not a traditional use of the herb, the US Patent and Trademark Office granted to Sabinsa a use patent for this compound. This is not an achievement to be lightly passed over.

Chemistry of GarCitrin:
GarCitrin contains (-)HCA and Garcinol.

Citrin1

Pharmacology of HCA - the key active ingredient of Citrin range of products
The fat regulating mechanism of Hydroxycitrate (HCA) was uncovered when scientists were scrutinizing different steps of Krebs cycle.

Biosynthesis of fatty acids takes place naturally in the Krebs Cycle by the following mechanism.Glycolysis breaks the glucose into pyruvate.

  • Pyruvate decarboxylates to give Acetyl CoA in mitochondria.
  • Oxaloacetate combines with Acetyl CoA to form Citrate in the mitochondria.
  • Citrate moves into Cytoplasm and is converted to Acetyl CoA with help of citrate lyase.
  • Acetyl CoA is converted to Malonyl CoA and further it forms Fatty Acids.

Hydroxycitrate (HCA) competes with Citrate to produce outcomes that offer significant benefit in weight management.

1. HCA promotes inhibition of fat synthesis

HCA inhibit enzyme Citrate lyase involved in synthesis of malonyl CoA, a precursor for fatty acid synthesis.
Citrin2

2. HCA promotes fat oxidation:

  • HCA has 100 times greater affinity for Citrate Lyase, hence it acts as a potent inhibitor of Citrate Lyase.
  • Because of its inhibition, very little Acetyl CoA reaches cytoplasm.
  • This in turn limits the activity of Malonyl CoA.
  • Lower levels of Malonyl CoA activates L-carnitine transferase
  • Fatty acids are transported into mitochondria by linking it with L-carnitine. This linking is facilitated by L-carnitine transferase.
  • Hence the oxidation of fatty acids is stimulated.
  • Ability of HCA to promote fat loss in humans result primarily from stimulation of fat oxidation.

Citrin3


3. Suppression of Appetite by HCA:

HCA provides a sense of satiety to the user and this has been clinically found in our various Citrin trials. Increase in fat metabolism by HCA in liver stimulates gluconeogenesis-glycogen storage in liver. High level of glycogen is signaled by CNS as a state of satiety and a decreased food intake.The activation of fat oxidation by Hydroxycitrate in liver also tends to stimulate gluconeogensis.
  • Pyruvate carboxylase initiate a chain of reactions that converts pyruvate into Glucose.
  • This replenishes the stored Glycogen storage in liver.
  • The high level of Glycogen, as a result of high glucose supply is translated by CNS as a state of satiety.

Amplibio Effect of GarCitrin:
Amplibio refers to a mechanism wherein either one of the compounds serves to facilitate the biological effect of other compounds or as a result, both biological activities are enhanced.

It was hypothesized that composition comprising HCA in combination with garcinol would be more absorbable and bioavailable to the body and to the individual cells than HCA administered alone resulting in higher rate of the competitive inhibition of ATP citrate lyase and more efficient use as a weight-loss therapy.

The Amplibio action of the HCA/garcinol combination would work hypothetically by the anti-oxidant action neutralizing negative charges surrounding the cell to facilitate transport and uptake of HCA into the cell, by affecting fluidity of cell membranes to facilitate transport and uptake of HCA into the cell, and by synergy with HCA to inhibit citrate lyase, thus lowering the threshold for such inhibition with the HCA.

The emergence of obesity as the leading public health problem in the United States is a matter of great concern. Over 58 million adults in the U.S. are obese and about one in five American children and adolescents is overweight. Obesity greatly increases the risk of premature death, and it is a major risk factor for developing chronic conditions such as diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, gallbladder disease, arthritis, lung problems and some of the more common forms of cancer. According to government statistics, obesity accounts for about three hundred thousand premature deaths in the United States each year.

The increased incidence of obesity is attributed to improper diet and a sedentary lifestyle. Therefore the quality of our lives depends upon appropriate lifestyle choices. We have to shed down our excess weight if we want to lead a happy life. Reduction of fat storage / overweight of individuals requires much and prolonged effort. Diet restrictions and extreme exercise regimens have poor success rates in weight reduction. However, smart nutritional choices supplemented with natural weight management products in combination with appropriate exercise regimens would serve the purpose.

Excess carbohydrates in the diet are ultimately converted to fats and stored in the body. In both plants and animals, starch is broken down by amylases and maltase to yield glucose. Plants break down starch during seed germination or tuber sprouting to supply the energy and carbon skeletons. Animals and fungi break down plant starch to obtain glucose for their own metabolism. The enzymes that catalyze the conversion of starch (a polysaccharide) into sugar molecules (monosaccharides) are called amylases. Surprisingly, plants usually contain amylase inhibitory compounds in the same organs (seeds and tubers) where the starch is stored, to ward off bacterial, fungal and animal predators. No parallels exist in mammalian systems.

Currently, scientists focus their interest on the amylase inhibitors produced by plants to block amylase activity in the human digestive tract. An amylase inhibitor acts as an antinutrient that obstructs the digestion of starch and absorption of glucose. Therefore amylase inhibitors are therapeutically valued in conditions such as diabetes (to reduce blood sugar levels) and in weight management. One of the conventionally used drugs in the management of diabetes, Acarbose, is a complex oligosaccharide that delays the digestion of ingested carbohydrates, thereby resulting in a smaller rise in blood glucose concentration following food intake. Acarbose inhibits the action of pancreatic amylase in breaking down starch, thereby achieving this effect.

How does BioPerine work?

The metabolic process that generates energy at the cellular level in the human body is called thermogenesis. Though thermogenesis has been identified as a key factor in maintaining weight loss, it has also been identified as playing an integral role in utilizing the daily food and nutrients that the human body consumes. It sets in motion the mechanisms that lead to digestion and subsequent gastrointestinal absorption. Piperine, in the patented form of BioPerine enhances the body's natural thermogenic activity-hence the term Thermonutrient.

This enhancement may be explained as a means of increasing the thermal energy sufficient to "power up" the mechanism related to thermogenesis. This in turn results in increased metabolic processes that creates a "demand" for "supply" of a broad range of nutrients that contribute to metabolism, i.e. vitamins, minerals, herbals, amino acids, etc. It is as if BioPerine activates a metabolic paddle wheel, of sorts, that selectively provides a more efficient mode of nutrient transportation into the blood.
