Sometimes, these trends are truly new innovations\u2014yet more often than not, they\u2019re actually long-loved by dietitians and natural medicine experts and only now getting some street cred.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">One prime example: inositol. Even though you may have just recently seen it on your Instagram feed, inositol has been around for more than a century. In fact, it was first discovered <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC5087877\/\"><span class=\"s1\">150 years ago<\/span><\/a> and has been well-known amongst the medical community since the late 1990s.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><b>What is inositol?<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/b><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Inositol is a vitamin-like sugar, often referred to as vitamin B8, though it\u2019s not technically a vitamin, explains naturopathic doctor and clinical nutritionist <a href=\"https:\/\/www.doctordavidfriedman.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s1\">David Friedman<\/span><\/a>, N.D., D.C. The compound is found in certain food sources such as fruit, wheat bran, navy beans, and nuts.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">In the body, you\u2019ll find inositol in the structure of your cell membranes, where it\u2019s part of important signaling pathways between cells, explains Toronto-based naturopathic doctor <a href=\"http:\/\/rosehealthclinic.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s1\">Olivia Rose<\/span><\/a>, N.D.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p3\"><b>What Inositol Does In The Body<\/b><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p4\"><span class=\"s2\">In its role in communication between cells, inositol \u201c<\/span>supports proper chemical messenger communications in the brain that impact our emotions,\u201d says Friedman. In particular, it influences the function of hormones such as insulin, as well as the production of the neurotransmitters serotonin and dopamine, adds Rose.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">Because of its interaction with insulin, inositol can support cardiovascular health (particularly healthy blood pressure and cholesterol), as well as the body\u2019s sensitivity to insulin. One study published in the journal <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/20811299\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s1\"><i>Menopause<\/i><\/span><\/a>, for example, linked daily supplementation of four grams with positive effects on insulin function and improved blood pressure and cholesterol levels.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/heart-healthy-habits\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">6 Heart-Healthy Habits Doctors Want You To Adopt<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">Plus, according to Friedman, since inositol also impacts important serotonin and dopamine, it can play a role in regulating our mood and mental and emotional well-being.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p4\">Also worth noting: \u201cIt has antioxidant properties, which means it can help protect cells, including brain cells, from free radical damage,\u201d adds Rose. Another impressive perk!<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><b>Who Can Benefit From Inositol<\/b><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Given its specific roles in the body, inositol may be especially beneficial for certain groups of people when taken in supplement form.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><b>1. People With Mood Issues<\/b><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">A recent theory in the world of mental health: That some individuals who deal with anxiety have lower levels of inositol in their brains\u2014and can thus benefit from incorporating a supplement into their wellness regimen, says Toronto-based naturopathic practitioner <a href=\"http:\/\/www.rachelcorradetti.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s1\">Rachel Corradetti<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Research published in <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/11281989\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s1\"><i>The International Journal of Neuropsychopharmacology<\/i><\/span><\/a> has linked the compound with increased production of serotonin (the \u201chappy\u201d neurotransmitter) and dopamine (the \u201creward\u201d neurotransmitter), suggesting it may help those with low mood find greater balance, too.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">If you\u2019re interested in taking inositol to support your mental and emotional well-being, Friedman recommends speaking with your healthcare provider about whether it\u2019s appropriate for you.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><b>2. Those With Blood Sugar Concerns<\/b><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">If you have blood sugar problems, taking an inositol supplement may be one natural way to help your system get regulated, notes naturopathic physician and certified nutrition consultant <a href=\"https:\/\/drkellyann.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s1\">Kellyann Petrucci<\/span><\/a>, N.D. \u201cOne study published in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC5078644\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s1\"><i>International Journal of Endocrinology<\/i><\/span><\/a> found that both fasting blood glucose and HbA1C (a measure of long-term glucose levels) improve after three months of inositol supplementation.\u201d<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Read More: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/blog\/healthy-blood-sugar\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">How To Get Off The Blood Sugar Rollercoaster<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">To promote healthy blood sugar, Petrucci recommends adding a minimum of four grams of inositol to your routine daily.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><b>Who shouldn\u2019t take inositol<\/b><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Overall, \u201c[inositol] is a very safe supplement, with very few and very minor side effects,\u201d Petrucci says. However, despite its many potential benefits, Rose recommends consulting with your healthcare provider before supplementing with it if you take multiple medications.<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cIt can also cause dizziness and headaches in some people, so if you are prone to either of those conditions be careful with supplementation\u2014especially with high doses (greater than 12 grams per day),\u201d she adds. \u201cIf you suffer from low blood sugar or hypoglycemia, inositol can also worsen your condition.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Petrucci recommends that anyone interested in taking large doses and pregnant and nursing women also check with a doctor before taking inositol, just to be on the safe side.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><b>Best Practices For Supplementing<\/b><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Inositol supplements are available in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/p\/inositol-powder-8-oz-powder\/vs-3238\">powder<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/p\/inositol-650-mg-300-capsules\/vs-1159\">capsule<\/a> forms, but capsules are typically more useful for people taking smaller doses while powders are easier for people using higher doses, notes Dr. Josh Axe, D.N.M., C.N.S., D.C., founder of <a href=\"https:\/\/ancientnutrition.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s1\">Ancient Nutrition<\/span><\/a> and member of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vitaminshoppe.com\/lp\/wellness-council\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s1\">The Vitamin Shoppe Wellness Council<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cThere\u2019s no general recommended amount, as studies involve a wide range\u2014from 200 to 4,000 milligrams per day,\u201d he explains.
