If you check the ingredient's page (http://www.luckyvitamin.com/p-6412-natures-plus-herbal-actives-coleus-forskohlii-forskolin-125-mg-60-vegetarian-capsules?redirect=1) for the Nature's Plus forskohli it says it contains c. forskohli root EXTRACT standardized to contain 20% forskolin. Swanson's is c. forskohli whole root powder, not extract. I take that to mean there is no way to be absolutely sure how much forskolin Swanson's has in it, it may be less, it may be more. It's not necessarily bad, just not the same kind of preparation which makes comparisons difficult.
Sorry don't know to compare the two. Your guess would be as good as mine!
hrm ok..and my aniterol pm is 500mg so i'd take 6 of those a day for 3000mg which i heard is around the recommended dosage?
