Inositol
Inositol (or myo-inositol) is a B-vitamin-like molecule often used to help regulate blood sugar, manage polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and alleviate the symptoms of mood disorders such as low mood or anxiousness. Inositol exists in nine possible stereoisomers: inositol lipids such as myo and d-chiro inositol. Further, there are inositol derivatives or inositol phosphates (IPs) and inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6 or InsP6 or phytic acid).

Ingredient Benefits
Helps regulate brain-signaling systems
Inositol is essential to multiple brain signaling systems, as it helps improve the sensitivity of various receptors, therefore enhancing the delivery of messages from a variety of hormones and neurotransmitters (brain messenger-molecules).
Promotes improved mental function and outlook
A clinical marker for depression is based on myo-inositol concentrations in blood. Researchers attribute the mood benefits of inositol to its positive influence on the hormones serotonin and dopamine.
Supports healthy blood sugar levels
Those suffering with poor regulation of blood sugar, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), or mood disorders may benefit from inositol. It can also be used as a preventive for people concerned with healthy cellular growth and differentiation.
