NOW Foods Inositol – 500 mg inositol in a vegetable capsule

NOW Foods Inositol is a food supplement providing 500 mg of inositol in each vegetable capsule. The product uses myo-inositol, the most abundant form of inositol. The recommended daily dose is one capsule and the bottle contains 100 capsules, so one pack lasts for 100 days. The capsules are made without animal-derived ingredients and are suitable for vegetarians and vegans. The formula is simple: besides inositol, the capsule contains only rice flour and a few technological aids that keep the powder uniform and easy to dose.

What is inositol?

Inositol is a naturally occurring compound that we obtain from both plant and animal foods. It used to be referred to as a member of the B-vitamin group, but it is not actually an essential nutrient, because the body can also produce it itself. Inositol has several chemical forms, or isomers, of which myo-inositol is the most abundant in nature and in food. This is the form NOW Foods uses in this product. The capsule contents are a white to slightly creamy powder; because of natural raw materials the colour may vary slightly from batch to batch, which does not affect product quality.

How to use?

Take one capsule a day as needed. Swallow the capsule with a glass of water or another drink, at a meal if you prefer. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. If you also take other food supplements, check that they do not contain large amounts of inositol. After opening, close the bottle tightly and store it in a cool, dry place.
