Inositol is a messenger in our neurocommunication system that signals release of serotonin and norepinephrine. It also triggers other cell functions related to glucose and fat metabolism. Inositol is an unofficial member of the B vitamin group that functions as a primary component of cell membranes. Although inositol has not been shown to be essential in the human diet, supplementation has shown to exert some very beneficial effects in cases of depression, panic attacks and even diabetes.

Key Benefits and Actions of Inositol -

Inositol is primarily used in the treatment of liver problems, depression, panic disorder, and diabetes. It also aids in the breakdown of fats, helps in the reduction of blood cholesterol, and helps to prevent thinning hair. A diet low in Inositol may result in deficiency symptoms that culminate in high blood cholesterol, constipation, eczema, and hair loss. Neurotransmitters such as seratonin in the brain depend on Inositol to function properly. Low levels of this nutrient may result in depression and some research has shown that increased levels of Inositol appear to be a promising treatment for depression.
