WHY WE STOCK IT
A single-nutrient myo-inositol supplement providing 500 mg per vegetable capsule. Inositol is a naturally occurring compound associated with the B-vitamin family and forms part of cell membranes and cellular-signalling processes.
 
This straightforward, vegan formula is licensed in Canada as a factor in maintaining good health.
 
BEST FOR
Adults seeking a modest daily amount of myo-inositol in a convenient capsule rather than a powder.
 
Inositol has been studied for PCOS, insulin sensitivity, fertility and certain mood conditions, but those studies commonly use several grams daily—substantially more than this product’s labelled 500 mg dose. This product should not be advertised as treating PCOS, infertility, anxiety, depression or another medical condition.
 
HOW TO TAKE IT
Adults: Take 1 capsule daily, or as directed by a healthcare practitioner.
At the labelled dose, 100 capsules provide a 100-day supply.
 
Do not increase the dose to match a research protocol without professional guidance. Higher-dose inositol is usually more practical as a measured powder and may have different safety considerations.
 
MEDICATION AND SAFETY CAUTIONS
Ask a healthcare practitioner before use if you:
Take insulin, metformin or another blood-glucose-lowering medication
Have diabetes, hypoglycemia or polycystic ovary syndrome
Have bipolar disorder or a history of mania or hypomania
Take medication for a mental-health condition
Are pregnant, breastfeeding or using fertility treatment
Are preparing for surgery
 
Inositol may influence blood-glucose control. Additional monitoring may be appropriate when it is combined with diabetes medication.
 
Possible adverse effects include nausea, gas, abdominal discomfort, headache, dizziness or loose stools, particularly at higher doses. Stop use and seek professional advice if significant mood changes, agitation, insomnia or another unexpected reaction develops.
 
Keep out of reach of children. Do not use if the safety seal is broken.
