Jarrow Inositol is the highest-quality product containing an effective dose of myoinositol – a component that occurs naturally in the human body, and which is responsible for intracellular communication at the molecular level.
Myo-inositol is one of the isomers of the compound belonging to pseudovitamin – inositol, which used to be called vitamin B8. This slightly sweet chemical substance belongs to the polyhydroxy alcohols, structurally similar to glucose. Its wide spectrum of activity encompasses alleviating ailments such as polycystic ovary syndrome and the PCOS-related insulin resistance, hirsutism or depressive disorders. It also appears that the compound also plays an important role in toxins removal (it participates in the production of glucuronic acid in the liver).
Inositol in the fight against PCOS
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is an extremely frequent disease occurring among women. The essential feature of the disease lies in hormonal problems, leading to a greater or lesser extent to systemic disorders. Depending on the course of the disease, it can lead to hyperinsulinism with varying intensity, and this, in turn, may lead to hyperandrogenism, hirsutism, and further consequences, which include masculinization of women, as well as fertility problems. The pathogenetic sequence is a vicious circle that can be now broken.
It has been proven that inositol is able to normalize androgen levels in the blood with a quite high efficiency. Further, it leads to a gradual restoration of an appropriate length of the menstrual cycle. The condition of skin is also improved, which results in a considerable decrease of acne lesions (due to the reduction of an activity of the sebaceous glands), and the hair which normally does not occur in healthy women also disappears.
Glucose management under control
Today, many people have Type II diabetes, which is characterized by the tissue resistance to insulin, leading to a permanent increase in blood glucose. If this condition persists for a long time, it can lead to serious problems of kidneys (diabetic nephropathy), visual organ (diabetic retinopathy), or cardiovascular system (atherosclerosis, hypertension). Therefore, every effort should be made to regulate the level of glucose in the blood.
The availability of sugar for cells is precisely regulated by insulin with its specific receptor. It works more or less similar to a "key" that opens the "door", allowing glucose to enter the cell. This process, however, is not that simple because it also involves intracellular transmitters. It has been observed that inositol is one of such intracellular transmitters, with the help of which a cell regulates the amount of "inward" admitted glucose.
In addition, inositol affects the positive regulation of the complex of glycolysis enzymes involved in "burning sugar", thus contributing to the more efficient use of glucose by the cells and lowering its concentration in the blood. The level of adiponectin, which in large quantities has the ability to increase insulin sensitivity of tissues, is also increased.
A definite improvement in mental condition
More and more people are struggling with psychological problems. This is caused by living under constant stress and sometimes by genetic predisposition. Interestingly, considerably reduced inositol concentration was observed in people suffering from depression and bipolar disorder compared to healthy subjects. But inositol supplementation has resulted in a definite improvement of mood and regression of the disease symptoms.
People struggling with eating disorders, anxieties, or women severely experiencing PMS can also breathe a sigh of relief. It has been shown that the inclusion of inositol in the diet resulted in the regression of anxiety and depression in people suffering from the abovementioned disorders.
In conclusion, Jarrow Inositol is a dietary supplement intended for people who want to effectively fight such ailments as polycystic ovary syndrome and PCOS-related insulin resistance or neurological problems. The observed effect is directed to a large extent to women, however, men struggling with type II diabetes or depressive disorders may also notice the benefits of this substance.
