Myo-inositol enhances vitamin D effects
Our study aimed to explore the impact of myo-inositol treatment on thyroid autoimmunity in women with autoimmune thyroiditis. We included groups of women who had been on myo-inositol for a while and those who hadn’t. For six months, we observed how vitamin D supplementation interacted with myo-inositol in affecting thyroid health and immune responses.
We found that among participants taking myo-inositol, the addition of vitamin D significantly improved insulin sensitivity and led to better outcomes regarding thyroid antibodies. Specifically, women who were already on myo-inositol showed a greater reduction in thyroid peroxidase and thyroglobulin antibodies when vitamin D was added to their regimen.
Interestingly, the effects of vitamin D were less noticeable in women who weren't on myo-inositol. These individuals did not exhibit the same improvements in thyroid function or antibodies. Overall, the findings suggest that myo-inositol might enhance the benefits of vitamin D, indicating a potential synergistic effect between these two agents in managing autoimmune thyroiditis.

We aimed to understand the impact of Myo-inositol on thyroid autoantibody levels in patients with Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT). Our analysis included data from a systematic review of several case-control studies that explored various dietary supplements, particularly focusing on inositol's effectiveness.
Our findings revealed that while selenium supplementation significantly reduced thyroid autoantibodies, the effects of Myo-inositol were not as promising. In fact, Myo-inositol, as well as Vitamin D both alone and in combination with selenium, did not produce significant reductions in either thyroid peroxidase autoantibodies (TPOAb) or thyroglobulin autoantibodies (TgAb).
This lack of efficacy suggests that Myo-inositol may not be an effective standalone treatment for lowering autoantibody levels in autoimmune disorders like HT. Therefore, we recommend that patients focus on selenium as a more impactful supplement during their treatment journey.

Inositol's impact on autoimmune thyroid
We set out to explore the effects of a combination of selenium and inositol on thyroid function and autoimmune characteristics in people with thyroid disorders. Through our systematic search spanning numerous databases, we reviewed studies published from 2007 to 2022, focusing on how these supplements influence thyroid health.
The results were somewhat mixed. While our findings indicated a modest increase in levels of Triiodothyronine (T3) after using both supplements, this change was not statistically significant. However, we did observe a significant increase in Thyroxine (T4) levels and a notable decrease in Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), which suggests potential positive outcomes. It's important to note that the levels of Anti-Thyroid Peroxidase Antibodies (TPOAb) did not show any significant change, and the overall improvements in T3 levels were not enough to substantiate a clear benefit.
Overall, our investigation reveals that adding inositol to selenium might not dramatically alter the thyroid's autoimmune activity. Still, the decrease in TSH and increase in T4 could hint at potential benefits that warrant further exploration. Given the limited number of studies in this area, more research will be essential to fully understand how inositol may affect autoimmune disorders related to thyroid health.

For the transition to niacin, we are gradually using niacinamide and niacin 100mg. As I increase the dosage, the total will rise, making it challenging to consume large capsules and grains consistently. I perceive this as a transitional period and try not to fret too much. Previously, I became quite impatient, and after beginning with protein and megavitamins, I suddenly became unwell and lost my health. However, it’s been three months without giving up. I view this as a mental practice, adjusting my approach carefully and listening to my body daily. The first two months were tough, but during the third month, I have felt considerable effects. If you struggle, take things slowly and start with a small amount.

Our exploration focused on how Myoinositol, often known as Myo, impacts autoimmune disorders, particularly autoimmune thyroiditis. We learned that Myo plays a crucial role in the body's thyroid function by aiding in the production of thyroid hormones and regulating iodine, which is essential in this process.
Interestingly, when Myo was combined with Selenium in treatment, patients with subclinical hypothyroidism showed significant decreases in thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) levels. Additionally, levels of antithyroid autoantibodies also dropped, which is promising for those battling autoimmune thyroid issues.
However, it is important to note that the study did not exclusively isolate the effect of Myoinositol, as the results were observed in conjunction with Selenium. Therefore, while the findings are encouraging, we cannot definitively claim that Myo alone yields the same benefits in managing autoimmune disorders.

We explored the effects of myo-inositol as part of a treatment regimen for young women with Hashimoto's thyroiditis—an autoimmune disorder. This study primarily compared the sexual functioning and depressive symptoms of women who were untreated versus those receiving various supplements including vitamin D and selenomethionine alongside myo-inositol.
While all treatment groups showed improved sexual functioning and well-being compared to the untreated women, we observed that the greatest benefits came from those receiving vitamin D. Additionally, there were no significant differences in sexual functioning and depressive symptoms between the myo-inositol and selenomethionine treatment groups.
As a result, we must note that myo-inositol's isolated effect was not clearly determined in this study due to its combination with other treatments. Therefore, while myo-inositol is seen as part of a broader therapy, its specific influence on autoimmune disorders warrants further investigation.
