Myo + D-Chiro Inositol x 225gm
Myo + D-Chiro Inositol combines the two most biologically important forms of inositol in a balanced ratio to support metabolic and reproductive health.
Myo-inositol is produced naturally within the body from glucose and is therefore not classified as an essential nutrient, it is often referred to as a pseudo-vitamin B8.
Myo-inositol is present in all body tissues, with the highest concentrations found in the brain, heart and lens of the eye, where it plays an important role in cellular signalling, insulin sensitivity and hormone regulation.

Food supplements should not be used as a substitute for a balanced and varied diet.
Myo + D-Chiro Inositol provides a combination of two isomers of inositol, Myo-inositol (MI) and D-Chiro Inositol (DCI), in powder form.
Myo-inositol (MI)is the most abundant and biologically active form of inositol found in the body, where it acts as an essential cellular messenger involved in insulin signalling, glucose metabolism, follicular development and oocyte quality.
D-chiro-inositol (DCI), is produced from myo-inositol through an insulin-dependent process and plays a complementary role in glucose utilisation, glycogen synthesis and metabolic regulation.
A healthy balance between myo-inositol and D-Chiro-Inositol is important for both metabolic and reproductive function. Research suggests that women with PMOS (formerly known as PCOS) may have alterations in the normal MI:DCI ratio, contributing to insulin resistance, disrupted ovulation and excess androgen activity. By providing both forms in a physiologically relevant ratio of 40:1 (MI/DCI), Myo + D-Chiro Inositol may help to support insulin sensitivity, healthy glucose metabolism, normal ovulatory function and overall hormone balance.
Myo + D-Chiro Inositol may also be beneficial for individuals looking to support healthy insulin signalling and metabolic health. Through their role in cellular communication and glucose metabolism, inositol’s may help to support the body’s natural response to insulin and healthy blood sugar regulation.
Inositol’s are also important for male reproductive health, research suggests they play a role in sperm maturation, motility, mitochondrial function and overall sperm quality.
Key Benefits include:
- May support insulin sensitivity and healthy glucose metabolism
- May support metabolic health and healthy blood sugar regulation
- May help to maintain hormone balance
- Supports healthy ovarian function and ovulation
- Supports sperm quality and motility
- Supports cellular signalling and energy metabolism
- Provides myo-inositol and D-chiro-inositol in a physiologically relevant ratio
