Myo-Inositol 500mg - 100 Capsules - Now Foods

Supports cell health.

Inositol 500 mg from NOW® is a supplement of Myo-Inositol, a compound naturally produced in the body, studied in different pathophysiological areas but with a greater emphasis on neurological disorders, and may be useful in maintaining adequate levels of Serotonin and Acetylcholine, preventing cognitive difficulties or mood disorders. Inositol deficiencies have been associated with cardiovascular diseases, depression, hair loss, among others.

Inositol is a non-essential member of the B-Complex family with dietary sources from both animal and plant foods. The form of Inositol used in this product is Myo-Inositol, the most abundant form of this nutrient.

Inositol is found in all cell membranes, with the highest concentrations in the brain and central nervous system, where it plays an important role in neurotransmitter signaling.

Inositol is also critical for proper insulin action, lipid metabolism, and the maintenance of cellular calcium balance.
