Rosmarinic - Antioxidant... and more

Rosmarinic acid is a polyphenol compound that naturally occurs in rosemary, sage, lemon balm mint, and sweet basil among other members of the Lamiaceae family..It displays general anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory effects, and may protect against various forms of cancers. Additionally, it can be absorbed through the skin when in an ethanol base (typically perillyl alcohol).
  • Pharmacolological Properties : Antiviral, antithrombotic and antiplatelet, antihormonal, activities and the suppression of cytokine-induced proliferation of murine cultured mesangial cells have also been reported for rosmarinic acid. The latter activity may have promise for the prevention of glomerulonephritis. Rosmarinic acid also furnishes significant antioxidant, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activities which makes it an attractive ingredient for pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries. It has been used topically in Europe as a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug.
  • In feed, the supplementation of livestock rations with herbs containing bioactive components, such as rosmarinic acid (RA), have shown promising results as a natural feed additive in promoting growth, productive and reproductive performance, feed utilization, fertility, anti-oxidant status and immunologic indices

Coleus - Coleus, Plectranthus barbatus or Indian Coleus, source of forskolin and decanal

Coleus forskohlii (or Plectranthus barbatus) commonly known as Coleus of India, grows in the mountains of Asia, and more particularly in the tropics and subtropials of Southeast Asia. Used for millennia in Ayurvedic medicine, Coleus forskohlii was then used to treat cardiovascular, respiratory (asthma), ophthalmological and skin disorders.

Coleus forskihlii is the only known plant source of forskolin, a natural compound which gives it its slimming properties and protects the skin. This diterpene is a non-adrenergic stimulator of adenylate cyclase, an enzyme that plays a role in thermogenesis and the use of fat cells for energy. It’s also why it’s used in anti-cellulite cream and – indirectly – for tanning. About the Coleus oil, it was found to more effectively inhibit the growth of skin pathogens than the well known tea tree oil as well as Lavender oil, and Bergamot oil. It was found to be equivalent to Clindamycin.
The primary mode of action of forskolin is to increase cellular concentrations of functions mediated by cyclic AMP (cAMP), via activation of the enzyme Adelylate cyclase (referred as the "second messenger"). Cyclic AMP facilitates the action of "primary messengers" or various hormonal and bioactive substances in the body (such as insulin). By facilitating hormonal action, cyclic AMP can help increase metabolic rate and thermogenesis. These events correspond to the accumulation of lean mass. Typically, an increase in cyclic AMP leads to subsequent activation of protein kinase. Protein kinase has been shown to activate hormone-sensitive lipase that is involved in the breakdown of triglycerides, known as the building blocks of fatty tissue. These events correspond to the decrease in body fat.
