Myo-Inositol

Myo-Inositol is a naturally occurring compound that plays an important role in many aspects of health. Supplementing with Myo-Inositol may help to:

• Support healthy blood sugar/glucose
• Aid carbohydrate, sugar, and glucose metabolism
• Help regulate and support a healthy menstrual cycle
• Maintain and support nervous system health and function
• Maintain and support general health and wellbeing
• Support preconception health and healthy foetal development
• Maintain and support reproductive system health
• In males, support sperm health and sperm motility

As with any new supplement, please always consult your health professional to ensure it is suitable for your individual requirements.

Myo-Inositol has a high safety profile and is included in many prenatal vitamins (often in smaller amounts). It is also present naturally in breast milk and in foods such as fruits and grains.

While Myo-Inositol is generally well tolerated, individual requirements can vary - it’s important to speak with your healthcare professional about any supplements or medicines you take during pregnancy, particularly in the first trimester.

Myo-Inositol can be taken at any time of the day. Most individuals take split doses morning and night time, or as recommended by their health professional.

Myo-Inositol can be commenced at any time and is not not dependent on where you are in your cycle.

Although many in our community take Myo-Inositol in their morning tea or coffee, some research suggests it may be more beneficial to take Myo-Inositol away from caffeine to ensure maximum effects.

No, the dose is dependent on powder used, not the amount of water. So long as you finish the glass of water you will be having the same dose.

As a dietary supplement it is recommended to start with 1/2 - 1 level teaspoon which is equivalent to the recommended dose of 2-4 g.

It is important to consult your health professional for individual dosing requirements. 

Myo-Inositol supplements are generally well tolerated.

With larger doses, some individuals may experience nausea, bloating, loose bowels etc. If this occurs, please stop supplementation and consult your health professional.

If you are new to Myo-Inositol or have experienced side effects in the past, starting with a smaller dose can help your body adjust. A gradual approach is generally recommended, for example:

• Week 1: 1 g per day
• Week 2: 2 g per day
• Week 3: 3 g per day
• Week 4: Increase to the full 4 g daily dose either taken all at once or split as 2 g twice a day.

You may also find it gentler on the stomach to dissolve 2 g into 1 L of water and sip gradually throughout the day.

Please always discuss the above with your health professional before starting or adjusting your dosage. This is a general recommendation only.

Generally speaking and from most research, 3 months is typically when most individuals start to experience benefits.

For some individuals, benefits can be seen much earlier and for some later, just like with any supplement, individual results may vary.

It is important to discuss the use of all medications, vitamins and supplements with your health professional.

Everyone is different and has individual health requirements. Please always consult your health professional before taking any supplement, vitamin, or medication.

Myo-Inositol can also be supportive for men. It may help to support sperm health and motility. As always, we recommend checking with a health professional to ensure it’s suitable for your partner’s individual requirements.
