A natural product, Inositol has been studied for a variety of potential health benefits, including its ability to support women’s health issues like PCOS and infertility, prevent neural tube defects, promote healthy cognitive function, improve insulin sensitivity, and reduce anxiety and depression.
The appropriate dosage of Inositol can differ based on the particular health condition being addressed, the form of Inositol used, as well as the person’s age and gender. For optimal intake, we suggest a daily dosage of 4 grams, ideally consumed with meals — 2 grams during breakfast and another 2 grams during dinner. To put it into perspective, 2 grams equals half a metric teaspoon.
Yes. Inositol is generally considered safe when taken at recommended doses (4g/day). However, it is always important to speak with a health professional before starting any new supplement, especially if you have any underlying health conditions or are taking medications. It’s important to remember that Myo Inositol does not work for everyone, and results can differ from person to person. This is why you can buy our Inositol supplement in a 60-day trial pack. This trial is designed to allow you to experience the benefits of Myo-Inositol in Australia firsthand, without a long-term commitment.
Inositol is generally well-tolerated, but some people may experience side effects such as nausea, headaches, and dizziness. Depending on bowel tolerance, in some cases, flatulence, loose stools and diarrhoea can also occur. For mild symptoms, we recommend using a ramping protocol of 1g/day in week 1, 2g/day in week 2, 3g/day in week three, and then the normal dose of 4g/day in week 4. If you experience any adverse effects while taking Inositol, stop taking the supplement immediately and speak with a healthcare professional.
