Inositol for mood, sleep, and PCOS


Listen Later

The supplement inositol is a superstar for treating polycystic ovary syndrome. It’s also been clinically trialled for weight loss, thyroid disease, anxiety, insomnia, and premenstrual mood symptoms. 

In this episode, Lara looks at:

  • "what is inositol?" and how to get it from diet
  • myo-inositol versus D-chiro-inositol, and 
  • why it's all a little confusing.

One thing Lara forgot to mention is that to get results with inositol, you need to commit to it for at least three months. And if it works, you’ll probably want to stay on it for years. Luckily, inositol can be quite inexpensive, especially if you choose straight myo-inositol powder.

  • Inositol treatment for PCOS should be science-based and not arbitrary
  • Cyclic progesterone therapy for PCOS
