Indian Coleus
Herbs and supplements are big business. These things aren’t cure-alls, but they do provide some help without the side effects of allopathic (prescription) medication. Take this little devil. The Indian Coleus plant, coleus forshkohlii, has been shown to have a remarkable breadth of benefits. A sample of them include:
Inhibition of the development of certain kinds of cancer. Lowers blood pressure. Increases skin resistance to sunlight, and aids in tanning. Reduces urinary tract infections. Lowers blood sugar levels. Helps control cholesterol levels. Aids general eye health and helps glaucoma. Increases testosterone production in men– which can help weight loss, erectile dysfunction, and muscle development.
Who wouldn’t like all that? Either you’re old and need help with blood pressure or you’re young and need the big muscles and good skin. It’s a win all around.
