I watched an older video from Dr. Berg in which he mentions the benefits of myoinositol on PCOS. My cycles were very irregular...I would go 4 months with no period at all. After watching the video, I began taking a supplement with a 40:1 ratio. After about 3 weeks my period started. For the following six months I had regular period. Fast forward, I now have a 16 month old toddler😊

I was diagnosed with PCOS in USA. In entire 9-10 years not a single gynecologist or endocrinologist prescribed me inositol, I kept suffering and they kept treating me for thyroid and with birth control pills for pcos to the point that I had headache everyday due to birth control pills intolerance. I took a trip to India and there the doctor gave me inositol. My doctor, there, gave me myo-inositol which had folate too if I remember correctly for PCOS and I felt better my cycles were better. I started feeling, happy, my body, mood was good. Also when I searched I found cantaloupe is a source of inositol that's why in our culture we eat a lot of cantaloupe in summers, everyday. All these problems started when I stopped living eating the way my parents lived, eat.
Hi Can you please tell me the medicine name which has myo inositol and folate too.I m also from India but unable to find these two in a single medicine..TIA

That's a great point that nobody ever mentions about supplements. If you take it regularly your body will expect it and stop producing it. I was thinking the same so I'll use it irregularly only when I get cravings or maybe 5 days on and 2 days off in the week.
No. Your body needs it essentially from fruits and vegetables. If you take inositol, it will build up in your system and be recycled if needed, and will actually give your body a chance to start producing more of it. Once you're really deficient, that's a much bigger problem.
It probably won’t make as much, not completely stop production. Besides even if you stopped taking it, it would immediately up-regulate the production of b8 again. It’s kind of like the deal with cholesterol where the liver makes 3000 mg of it a day and the more you eat causes the amount your body produces go down; however when you eat less it immediately balances out with producing more.
I've taken inositol for years first to help with the blues then to boost energy after workouts. Working out did not give me energy. It gassed me for the rest of the day. Inositol helped a lot. My wife used to be real up tight about certain things. It helped her to relax and not take things so seriously.
@@galaxyqueen8638 we aren't very careful about the amount. I bought a bulk bag and it lasts a real long time. I think we were just taking 1-2 grams at first, once a day, in the morning. Now I put it in my morning protein shake and it may be 2-5 grams. My wife has not been very consistan but takes it with juice. When she gets anal about things I ask her if she has taken her inositol and suggest a double dose. 🤣
Back in the 70's when Dr. Atkins came out with the low carb diet, he prescribed; Lecithin 1200mg 3x a day (for choline & inositol) B-6 50mg 2x a day, ACV 1t 3x a day and vitamin-E 400 IU 3x a day. The pounds melted off!
hi Katie! You´ve taken all these nutrients and lost weight?Why did ou stop taking the meds? Lecithin is very often in processed food (eve chocolate) as emulsifier ad people don´t like it. But why, if it has that of a good effect?I also took it but only 300mg per day..nothing noticable happened.
@@katieirish5765 tell me a lile bit more if you like :-), would be happy to hear about it. What did it change for you in comparision to not taking anthing before? Sunflower lecithin makes a diffrence to soy (its proven that soy won´t have an effect to your estragen level also not for men) .And have you also taken myo- inositol by itself? If, which one works better your 70´s mixture or myo-inositol?
@@madlenj.4644 Lecithin has inositol and choline, so it's easier to get 2 in one. I've always taken them, so I don't know what the affect is on me without them.
This miracle supplement does everything I need help with, not to forget help with hair loss , stopping hair growth on the chin, boosting energy, and thyroid function.

Would love to see a video on Morgelins disease (where you feel like your skin is crawling). Its not recognized as a disease yet, but so many people suffer with this, doctors just call them crazy and say its all in their heads bc its not a recognized condition so theres not template for mainstream doctors to work from (the politics of the healthcare industry are disgustingly dehumanizing!), and there is a link to having it and previously having had Lyme. Was wondering if maybe different nutrutients or even keto help?
Dr., why is it that when taken Myo Inositol and D-Chiro Inositol in 40:1 ratio, I end up with tingling in the hands and feet and at times palpitations?? I have stopped it and watched these symptoms go away and when taken again, symptoms also returned. Could you please shed some light on this? Thank you,
You could try eating Pearl millet or eating millet daily or more often it is loaded with inositol and helps with most if not all the symptoms Dr Berg mentions.
This is incredibly important to have in your diet just because your body makes these vitamins does not mean you should not try to get them in your diet or supplement with them these particular vitamins in general there's about I think it was four or five of them they've taken out of B multivitamins, back when I was losing my hair I went to a health food store and got a multivitamin the multivitamin I had had every form of B vitamin out there including the ones that the body makes the very first day I took it I had a huge level of energy not only energy but I lost fat that very day as well as my head begin to clear and my hair started regenerating by the end of the month my hairline was coming back and by the time I finish the bottle my hair had come back and it looked like nothing had changed after about a week or two I started losing my hair again for a few years I thought it was because of the energy drinks I was drinking or the fasting I did but the real issue was every time I would buy a multi B vitamin that was that particular one my hair would come back and I would just feel better, but one day when I went to go get the same vitamin the hair regeneration the energy production just went away it was like it wasn't working anymore I became really depressed after noticing it wasn't working and for years I had no idea they took those B vitamins out of it so recently when I was on tiktok I saw a video of a gentleman talking about the B vitamins they've taken out of the B vitamins category after learning this I've been hunting them down and trying them and it has changed my life, all of my inflammation of my body has dropped drastically since I started taking them all and my mental focus has gone back up and yes my hairline has started regenerating again, so don't listen to what people tell you do your own research you need vitamins including the ones that your body makes because as you get older, or if you have chromosome problems or your premature like I am your body is going to make less and less depending on your genetics so you need to make sure you get this stuff in your diet now obviously you're not going to find all of these vitamins and food because the food industry keeps stripping out everything heck they're stripping out fiber out of wheat wheat is 90% fiber so they're stripping out fiber they are perverting food to such a crazy level that no wonder so many people have irritable bowel issues I've had to buy five or six different forms of fiber and I always take fiber right before a big meal so that way when my stomach is digesting the food the fiber can coat it especially if it's oily food so I don't have acid and since I've started doing that I don't have acid problems anymore I don't have really any issues breaking food down it's this lack of energy I've had, and I'm only 32, I started feeling this way back when I was 21 or 23 one of the two and I'm telling you all right now high fiber in your diet every morning you get up before every meal have some Fiber, and make sure you get these B vitamins all of the B vitamins that your body needs including the ones they've taken off the B vitamins list also L-Carnitine and L glutamine because when you eat caffeine or B vitamins your body is going to break down L-glutamine, so you want to keep your levels of L-glutamine normal and L-Carnitine is a natural fat burner it's produced in the liver but the older you get the less of it your body produces so those two minerals on top of these B vitamins it's going to blow your mind
Your comment is very helpful to those who can understand the importance of the deleted B vitamins . B4 / B8 / B10 / B11 / B13 / B14 ............... these are all important aids to your health and can be Googled for more info . They all have their own Chemical names .

Hi, Dr. Berg. Thanks for your help. In your other inositol video called 'What Is Inositol?' you recommended iP6 inositol, and in this video you recommend myo-inositol. I'm wondering something. Are you recommending IP6 inositol for men and myo-inositol for women? Does it make a difference which type of inositol is used, based on gender? I'd like to use this to combat depression. Thank you! Blessings!
DR BERG! IT WORKS! IT IS VERY SWEET. I HAVE NOT BINGED ON CARBS SINCE STARTING THIS 3 DAYS AGO. NO HUNGER PANGS, LESS JOINT PAIN, LESS OVERWHELMED, CAN FOCUS BETTER N DO MORE TASKS. I FEEL LIKE I CAN GET BACK ON KETO! THANK Q !
It needs to be taken away from other supplements because it binds to other vitamins and minerals and lowers their absorption. I just saw another video of his about this.
My husband and I both have had success with plain inositol on those occasional nights when your mind just won't be quiet. Hubby needs 500 mg, I need less. Another factor to consider is the choline...the "energy" side of this equation. Cant take choline at nite or you may be up till dawn cleaning your garage ...so we take it separately the next AM. No scientific references here, just a long history of handling sleep issues. As in all health or supplements...check with your medical or complementary physician before jumping into the deep end of the pool.🙂
Woww i write this reply right after my worst night since months... yesterday I decided to switch my 500mg Inositol alone after 6 weeks to 250/250 Choline /Inositol! Same experience here, couldnt sleep at all AT ALL! Even if i felt in sleep Multiple times , i got kicked out within a second , and its 10 AM right now.... thx for your comment maybe found the WHY
Is Inositol and myoinositol the same thing? I've been taking inositol along with berberine. I just started keto on day 6, I do intermittent fasting 16:8 and do resistance training as I just started today. Am I on the right track to getting rid of Insulin resistance and PCOS? I see my shorts are getting loose. I will weigh myself once a week every Sunday to see my progress. First weigh in coming in 2 days. I'm excited 😊 🤗
Anyone had issues with hair loss instead with Inositol? I was checking reviews and found one who have complained of hair loss. Their doctor claimed it must be due to iron imbalance which may be caused by inositol
Mohammed Shawqi, I think Dr. Berg mentioned to take biotin along with the Inositol. I suffered from terrible PTSD most of my life. So I had terrible adrenal burnouts. Since I started taking Inositol and biotin my hair has started growing much more.
I have trouble with any supplements on an empty stomach, and doing OMAD or even 2MAD rather limits my ability to spread them out through the day. Is it OK to just load up all my minerals and vitamins and take them at once? And you are missing the big confidence boosting ability of this one. I amuse myself daily by telling myself I am taking my "I knows it all" pill. :)
Thank you Dr berg your the best !! I had a insulin problem and started taking this you are a wonderful dr other dr never mention this God bless you for everything you do!!🙏😇
This stuff is amazing and I can definitely notice the difference in my emotions and overall mental well-being. I'm in the UK and get inositol from Bulk Powders .
@@galaxyqueen8638 it's now a part of my daily supplements and I do believe that it makes a difference. The scoop size is 1g but there are days when I feel I need more so I take up to 2 heaped scoops 👍

excerpts from dr berg The type of inositol you may want to take is called Myo-inositol. 5 benefits of inositol: 1. It can act as a natural anti-depressant, and it may have anti-anxiety effects 2. It’s similar to metformin and may help with PCOS 3. It can help restore the FSH and LH ratios and may help with the menstrual cycle and fertility 4. It can reduce the need for binge eating 5. It can help reduce stress and mood swings Food sources of inositol include brewer`s yeast, liver, whole grains, cantaloupe, citrus fruits (except lemon), bananas, wheat germ, nuts, beans, raisins, cabbage, and lecithin.
Inositol supports your body's normal insulin processing mechanisms. Insulin is a hormone made by the pancreas and released into the bloodstream. Insulin allows our cells to take in glucose (sugar) and produce energy.👍
@UTexas Nurse leafy greens, broccoli, peas, soybeans... basically anything that has a good amount of tryptophan (which the body uses to make serotonin) should do it.

So I can just maintain and revamp ways i maintain my health periodically from 30 on up.

You are so appreciated.💚
Inositol is an ingredient of many energy drinks. It increases neurotransmitters. In fact it is used to help hangovers as it competes with alcohol in the brain. They are both sugars. It makes niacin. If you drink an energy drink and get a flush it is the inositol converting to niacin. Inositol nicotinate is a drug made from this which has an amazing ability to help with seemingly unrelated problems. It should be noted that the bacteria living on cooling rods in nuclear power plants have a genetic up-regulation of inositol/niacin to counteract the cell degradation from radiation.
@@galaxyqueen8638 No I drink so I don't want it! :-) Just kidding. It is found in high carb foods so its better to avoid the carbs and supplement but you must balance with the other b vitamins. Tricky balance. Perhaps Dr. Berg can provide a multivitamin which is well balanced.
@@goldwealth thank you. Where did you hear that in converts to niacin? So inositol is basically niacin? That would explain the intense sweating / hot flashes I got the first day using it. Thanks
I was almost hopeless with bad sleeping patterns and staying awake all night. I take e round tsp an hour before bedtime, and sleeping just great.. I don't care about the rest
Hi there! Thank you for a great question. Food sources of inositol include brewer`s yeast, liver, whole grains, cantaloupe, citrus fruits (except lemon), bananas, wheat germ, nuts, beans, raisins, cabbage, and lecithin. Dr. Berg's Support Team.
I caution people about Inositol supplementation as it can cause brain fog or memory issues with some people. I try to incorporate it in my regimen for my OCD (you’ll find the articles about it MAYBE helping symptoms), and I get brain fog... It’s hard to explain. Other people have experienced worse side effects. But yeah, I give up on it myself.
@@zephorianvephorian777 thanks for your reply. Not doing ggreat, stopped taking inositol a couple days ago but still feeling the effects although less, i really struggle with concentration and sleep at odd hours (still struggling to sleep profoundly i wake up at 2 am with insomnia) overall body clock got messed up, it freaks me out because on one note I feel my body stored it and I am not as hungry as normal (or i used to feel more depleated) but on the other i can barely focus or feel like myself. quite the scary side effect to be honest. I did take omega 3 today which has choline (salmon oil) and felt normal for like 20 mins then back to an overall tired mental numbness yet I can't easily sleep. Its like being on autopilot, awake, calm but not there emotionally. I imagine this is what antidepressants feel like, but I dont think they are worth it to me. Anyway, i will completely cut themoff till I get tested to see what type of PCOS I have. I feel there are several people with similar effects as mine, so there really should be more talk about why this happens/ side effects and not only the positives, which again, I know they exist, but then again the side effects can also affect you pretty heavily. Your analysis seem pretty spot on as to what happens. Maybe i will try it with a small dose of choline next time and see how that goes. I really do not like any emotional numbness at all
Dr Berg I just love your videos..they are so informative Thanks a ton Plz can you tell me how' much choline and how much inositol should be taken for fatty liver
Great video! I was wondering if You could do a video on raynaud syndrome and its treatment? It would be very helpful because I've been struggling with illness for years.
Sorry to hear that. My mom had that and scleroderma years ago. They didn't know much about it back then and she suffered a lot. And I mean a lot. Since then I have read and heard of so many more people having it. I hope they have found something to help people now with these diseases. God bless 🙏💞🙏
Hello. Can you do a video for symptoms if you take yo much of it. And how much folate should you take with 2000 mg? And can you find it in food? When does the body made less of it and more of it?
diarrhea comes with too much. it stops when you stop taking it though. I was giving a large serving everyday to my dog that has anxiety and does alot of repetitive pacing, rubbing on couch/wall, it helped, but a few months in he got diarrhea, I stopped giving it for a week, now I give him a smaller dose every other day and I give him GABA on the other days.
When I look for Choline, it is almost always combined with Inositol. 1:1 ratio. Is it useful to take them together. I want to take Choline for fatty liver. Thanks 😊
I just started it a week ago. Gradually increasing dose daily. The only issue so far is it makes me fart 💨 🤣 Thats what sugar alcohols do. Hope that helps.
I took inositol for pcos as the label said about 4 caps a day, I thought i was going to die, i got sick straight away, im now taking only one capsule at night but its sometimes in the morning i wake up feeling like im drunk
By saying thats all i guess he maybe winking at the claim it shrinks tumors Dr Berg if you can make a video discussing that it would be great Ive seen many reviews on different sites from people claiming this
God said that inositol was the 'forgotten vitamin' meaning it was often ignored by Man. It helped against anxiety. Since mom died I stopped taking it. Just realized that this might be why since then have been having trouble with tachnophobia. Thank you for this reminder!
Inositol is a substance found naturally in cantaloupe, citrus fruit, and many fiber-rich foods (such as beans, brown rice, corn, sesame seeds, and wheat bran).
Hello dr.Berg i have a urgent question, my friend has cancer of 4 stage of the brain breast and others getting worst it started with breast cancer, i told her to try Keto and IF but question is is she need continue Chemoteraphy? is it necessary? I hope i will get answer soon...🙏
Dr. Berg, I found that in addition to the benefits I got from taking Inositol. I was spotting like crazy which only abated when I stop the supplement. Do you think I should have continued until the 3 months mark, regardless of the spotting?
Just wondering if it might help for older females past menopause age. I've been doing keto and lost 70 lbs and since Covid 19, I'm working at home with some semi ketoians, I've been snacking some and have gained back 12 lbs and need help with intermitant fasting I don't leave the house much either.

Any opinions which form of inositol would be best for depression/anxiety in men? (IP6 or Myo) ? I've seen your other inositol video, which is older, touting IP6 at that time.... thanks
Is this supplement for men also? I know dr berg mentioned that it helps with testosterone, but most of the posts here seem to be from women who have been taking this supplement. Thank you to all that reply 🙏😊
I don't think it is a gender specific nutrient. It doesn't produce esyrogen or anything like or a tonic for the prostate or anything like that. It good for both male and female reproduction. Ive taken it, it does have a nice relaxation effect.
What's the biggest difference between taking myo-inositol (around twice 2000 mg) and taking IP6/ inositol (1600mg/1100mg) dail? Will you still get the mentioned benefits? What benefits from this video are lost? Can they be combined daily?

That's a great point that nobody ever mentions about supplements. If you take it regularly your body will expect it and stop producing it. I was thinking the same so I'll use it irregularly only when I get cravings or maybe 5 days on and 2 days off in the week.
@Yanire Mahabirsingh
Good question. I would've assumed that your body would go back to it's pre-supplement state, but I don't actually know.
No. Your body needs it essentially from fruits and vegetables. If you take inositol, it will build up in your system and be recycled if needed, and will actually give your body a chance to start producing more of it.
Once you're really deficient, that's a much bigger problem.
Shahaf Sagi What source did get that from?
It probably won’t make as much, not completely stop production. Besides even if you stopped taking it, it would immediately up-regulate the production of b8 again. It’s kind of like the deal with cholesterol where the liver makes 3000 mg of it a day and the more you eat causes the amount your body produces go down; however when you eat less it immediately balances out with producing more.
I've taken inositol for years first to help with the blues then to boost energy after workouts. Working out did not give me energy. It gassed me for the rest of the day. Inositol helped a lot. My wife used to be real up tight about certain things. It helped her to relax and not take things so seriously.
Hello, can I ask you a question? Do you still take this to this day? And have you noticed effects diminished? Thanks.
@@galaxyqueen8638 I still take it dayly. I think it still does the job. If you think it's not working like it used to, stop taking it for a while.

This is incredibly important to have in your diet just because your body makes these vitamins does not mean you should not try to get them in your diet or supplement with them these particular vitamins in general there's about I think it was four or five of them they've taken out of B multivitamins, back when I was losing my hair I went to a health food store and got a multivitamin the multivitamin I had had every form of B vitamin out there including the ones that the body makes the very first day I took it I had a huge level of energy not only energy but I lost fat that very day as well as my head begin to clear and my hair started regenerating by the end of the month my hairline was coming back and by the time I finish the bottle my hair had come back and it looked like nothing had changed after about a week or two I started losing my hair again for a few years I thought it was because of the energy drinks I was drinking or the fasting I did but the real issue was every time I would buy a multi B vitamin that was that particular one my hair would come back and I would just feel better, but one day when I went to go get the same vitamin the hair regeneration the energy production just went away it was like it wasn't working anymore I became really depressed after noticing it wasn't working and for years I had no idea they took those B vitamins out of it so recently when I was on tiktok I saw a video of a gentleman talking about the B vitamins they've taken out of the B vitamins category after learning this I've been hunting them down and trying them and it has changed my life, all of my inflammation of my body has dropped drastically since I started taking them all and my mental focus has gone back up and yes my hairline has started regenerating again, so don't listen to what people tell you do your own research you need vitamins including the ones that your body makes because as you get older, or if you have chromosome problems or your premature like I am your body is going to make less and less depending on your genetics so you need to make sure you get this stuff in your diet now obviously you're not going to find all of these vitamins and food because the food industry keeps stripping out everything heck they're stripping out fiber out of wheat wheat is 90% fiber so they're stripping out fiber they are perverting food to such a crazy level that no wonder so many people have irritable bowel issues I've had to buy five or six different forms of fiber and I always take fiber right before a big meal so that way when my stomach is digesting the food the fiber can coat it especially if it's oily food so I don't have acid and since I've started doing that I don't have acid problems anymore I don't have really any issues breaking food down it's this lack of energy I've had, and I'm only 32, I started feeling this way back when I was 21 or 23 one of the two and I'm telling you all right now high fiber in your diet every morning you get up before every meal have some Fiber, and make sure you get these B vitamins all of the B vitamins that your body needs including the ones they've taken off the B vitamins list also L-Carnitine and L glutamine because when you eat caffeine or B vitamins your body is going to break down L-glutamine, so you want to keep your levels of L-glutamine normal and L-Carnitine is a natural fat burner it's produced in the liver but the older you get the less of it your body produces so those two minerals on top of these B vitamins it's going to blow your mind

@@Drberg clicked on this cause I was like...what is B8?? Lol
Hi, Dr. Berg. Thanks for your help. In your other inositol video called 'What Is Inositol?' you recommended iP6 inositol, and in this video you recommend myo-inositol. I'm wondering something. Are you recommending IP6 inositol for men and myo-inositol for women? Does it make a difference which type of inositol is used, based on gender? I'd like to use this to combat depression. Thank you! Blessings!
I don't think IP6 is a type of inositol, I believe it's usually combined with myo-inositol. That's how I interpreted my supplement anyway.
DR BERG!
IT WORKS! IT IS VERY SWEET. I HAVE NOT BINGED ON CARBS SINCE STARTING THIS 3 DAYS AGO. NO HUNGER PANGS, LESS JOINT PAIN, LESS OVERWHELMED, CAN FOCUS BETTER N DO MORE TASKS.
I FEEL LIKE I CAN GET BACK ON KETO!
THANK Q !
That's great! :) Happy to help!
How are you doing on it now?
I take Choline+ Inositol, but I don't know if I should take it with a meal or empty stomach and when. Please help.
I have the same question too!
It needs to be taken away from other supplements because it binds to other vitamins and minerals and lowers their absorption. I just saw another video of his about this.
@CM on an empty stomach
I’ve heard from other doctors this helps tremendously with sleep too.
Good to know. Thanks for sharing this info.
My husband and I both have had success with plain inositol on those occasional nights when your mind just won't be quiet. Hubby needs 500 mg, I need less. Another factor to consider is the choline...the "energy" side of this equation. Cant take choline at nite or you may be up till dawn cleaning your garage ...so we take it separately the next AM. No scientific references here, just a long history of handling sleep issues. As in all health or supplements...check with your medical or complementary physician before jumping into the deep end of the pool.🙂
Woww i write this reply right after my worst night since months... yesterday I decided to switch my 500mg Inositol alone after 6 weeks to 250/250 Choline /Inositol!
Same experience here, couldnt sleep at all AT ALL! Even if i felt in sleep Multiple times , i got kicked out within a second , and its 10 AM right now.... thx for your comment maybe found the WHY
Is Inositol and myoinositol the same thing? I've been taking inositol along with berberine. I just started keto on day 6, I do intermittent fasting 16:8 and do resistance training as I just started today. Am I on the right track to getting rid of Insulin resistance and PCOS? I see my shorts are getting loose. I will weigh myself once a week every Sunday to see my progress. First weigh in coming in 2 days. I'm excited 😊 🤗
How did it go 1 year later?
Yes, it' the same.
Anyone had issues with hair loss instead with Inositol? I was checking reviews and found one who have complained of hair loss. Their doctor claimed it must be due to iron imbalance which may be caused by inositol
Mohammed Shawqi, I think Dr. Berg mentioned to take biotin along with the Inositol. I suffered from terrible PTSD most of my life. So I had terrible adrenal burnouts. Since I started taking Inositol and biotin my hair has started growing much more.
He mentioned taking folate with it..maybe theres a connection
I have trouble with any supplements on an empty stomach, and doing OMAD or even 2MAD rather limits my ability to spread them out through the day. Is it OK to just load up all my minerals and vitamins and take them at once?
And you are missing the big confidence boosting ability of this one. I amuse myself daily by telling myself I am taking my "I knows it all" pill. :)
Thank you Dr Berg, once again you have helped me with my health.. I recommend you to other people often who need help

Is it the myo-inositol?
excerpts from dr berg
The type of inositol you may want to take is called Myo-inositol.
5 benefits of inositol:
1. It can act as a natural anti-depressant, and it may have anti-anxiety effects
2. It’s similar to metformin and may help with PCOS
3. It can help restore the FSH and LH ratios and may help with the menstrual cycle and fertility
4. It can reduce the need for binge eating
5. It can help reduce stress and mood swings
Food sources of inositol include brewer`s yeast, liver, whole grains, cantaloupe, citrus fruits (except lemon), bananas, wheat germ, nuts, beans, raisins, cabbage, and lecithin.
Thx Fidel from Cuba :)
Thank you!! 😊

Inositol supports your body's normal insulin processing mechanisms. Insulin is a hormone made by the pancreas and released into the bloodstream. Insulin allows our cells to take in glucose (sugar) and produce energy.👍
Man i see you everywhere. What's your background story?

Studies have also shown, that Inositol, like Berberine, can reduce LDL and triglycerides. It's a toss-up in the studies, if it raised the HDLs or not.
What if you've already gone through menopause and how does that affect fsh/LH levels?
@Dr Berg’s response to this will be nice !
And there is:: Inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6) which is inositol +++ next level!
Inositol is an ingredient of many energy drinks. It increases neurotransmitters. In fact it is used to help hangovers as it competes with alcohol in the brain. They are both sugars. It makes niacin. If you drink an energy drink and get a flush it is the inositol converting to niacin. Inositol nicotinate is a drug made from this which has an amazing ability to help with seemingly unrelated problems. It should be noted that the bacteria living on cooling rods in nuclear power plants have a genetic up-regulation of inositol/niacin to counteract the cell degradation from radiation.
Do you use it everyday?
@@galaxyqueen8638 No I drink so I don't want it! :-) Just kidding. It is found in high carb foods so its better to avoid the carbs and supplement but you must balance with the other b vitamins. Tricky balance. Perhaps Dr. Berg can provide a multivitamin which is well balanced.

Not doing ggreat, stopped taking inositol a couple days ago but still feeling the effects although less, i really struggle with concentration and sleep at odd hours (still struggling to sleep profoundly i wake up at 2 am with insomnia) overall body clock got messed up, it freaks me out because on one note I feel my body stored it and I am not as hungry as normal (or i used to feel more depleated) but on the other i can barely focus or feel like myself. quite the scary side effect to be honest. I did take omega 3 today which has choline (salmon oil) and felt normal for like 20 mins then back to an overall tired mental numbness yet I can't easily sleep. Its like being on autopilot, awake, calm but not there emotionally. I imagine this is what antidepressants feel like, but I dont think they are worth it to me.
Anyway, i will completely cut themoff till I get tested to see what type of PCOS I have. I feel there are several people with similar effects as mine, so there really should be more talk about why this happens/ side effects and not only the positives, which again, I know they exist, but then again the side effects can also affect you pretty heavily. Your analysis seem pretty spot on as to what happens. Maybe i will try it with a small dose of choline next time and see how that goes. I really do not like any emotional numbness at all

I wonder if we can use it as a sweetener in coffee its like powder sugar i can’t believe it’s a supplement actually 😄
Great video straight to the point. Very informative, thank you.
Any opinions which form of inositol would be best for depression/anxiety in men? (IP6 or Myo) ? I've seen your other inositol video, which is older, touting IP6 at that time.... thanks
I take both
Is this supplement for men also? I know dr berg mentioned that it helps with testosterone, but most of the posts here seem to be from women who have been taking this supplement. Thank you to all that reply 🙏😊
I don't think it is a gender specific nutrient. It doesn't produce esyrogen or anything like or a tonic for the prostate or anything like that. It good for both male and female reproduction. Ive taken it, it does have a nice relaxation effect.
Dr Berg mentioned testicles. So, yes, it's for men too.
Well this lower my blood sugar as I'm hypoglycemic?
What's the biggest difference between taking myo-inositol (around twice 2000 mg) and taking IP6/ inositol (1600mg/1100mg) dail? Will you still get the mentioned benefits? What benefits from this video are lost? Can they be combined daily?
I don't think you need that much
@@juliansanchez2304 The question is based on the therapeutic tx and studies around treating ADHD with a high dose of inositol not the chelated IP6. Can you elaborate on how much is needed based on the research around this topic?
