We aimed to evaluate how myo-inositol supplementation affects women with gestational diabetes through a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials. Our search included multiple databases, leading to the analysis of four studies involving 317 participants. The results showed that myo-inositol significantly reduced the need for insulin and improved insulin sensitivity. However, it did not influence birth weight, cesarean delivery rates, or NICU admissions. These findings suggest myo-inositol could be a helpful addition to managing gestational diabetes, but further research is needed.

Inositol reduces gestational diabetes risk
We investigated the effectiveness of myoinositol supplements in preventing gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and its associated complications in pregnant women at high risk for GDM.

By reviewing data from eight randomized controlled trials involving around 1,795 participants, we found that inositol not only halved the incidence of GDM but also significantly reduced fasting and glucose levels in tests.

Furthermore, myoinositol appeared to lower the need for insulin and decrease the risk of conditions like preeclampsia and preterm birth. These findings suggest a promising role for myoinositol in GDM prevention.

This study explored the impact of myo-inositol (MI) supplementation on preventing gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in 200 pregnant women. Participants were divided into two groups: one receiving MI and folic acid, and the other receiving only folic acid.

The findings revealed that those taking MI had a significantly lower incidence of GDM compared to the control group. Additionally, those in the MI group showed better glycemic control and improved insulin sensitivity. Overall, integrating MI might offer an effective way to enhance the health of pregnant women and reduce GDM risk.

Inositol has been a lifesaver for my diabetes and PCOS; my high testosterone levels have drastically declined. In my country, doctors prescribe other products that are expensive and less effective. I switched to this inositol alternative and am incredibly satisfied—my testosterone has plummeted from 5 to 2! I wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone facing similar issues.

Inositol is beneficial for preventing diabetes and dyslipidemia, enhancing insulin efficacy. It's also linked to improving hair loss, which is often exacerbated by hormonal imbalances. Adequate inositol supply promotes better hair health. Derived from brown rice, beans, and corn, one daily pill suffices, albeit it is somewhat large.

New drug shows promise for diabetes
We evaluated the effectiveness of Xelaglifam, a new drug designed to activate specific receptors that help manage Type 2 diabetes. Our study compared its performance against another drug, Fasiglifam.

Through tests in the lab and on rats, we found that Xelaglifam boosts insulin secretion and lowers blood sugar levels effectively without causing hypoglycemia.

Additionally, its ability to improve glucose tolerance suggests it could be a valuable treatment option for those managing this condition, potentially working well alongside existing medications.

D-Pinitol and ice plant benefits
We explored the effects of ice plant extract and its compound D-pinitol on insulin secretion and blood sugar levels in diabetic rats. By utilizing the glucose-stimulated insulin secretion test and measuring various insulin-related factors, we discovered that both substances significantly boosted insulin secretion.

Additionally, ice plant extract helped reduce weight gain and improved glucose tolerance. These findings suggest that ice plant and D-pinitol could serve as beneficial functional foods for managing diabetes and supporting insulin signaling in the body.

Histatin 1 enhances diabetic wound healing
We explored how Histatin 1, found in human saliva, helps combat aging in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) to improve diabetic wound healing. The study revealed that this peptide reduces cell senescence and works by enhancing mitochondrial function and reducing oxidative stress.

In laboratory settings, Histatin 1 decreased markers of aging in cells and improved their function. Furthermore, in a mouse model of diabetes, it promoted wound healing through increased blood vessel formation.

Overall, Histatin 1 shows promise as a solution for improving skin repair in diabetic patients.

Prevention of diabetes issues
I have been taking 500mg of Inositol daily for over two years as a preventative measure against heart disease and type 2 diabetes. The capsules are a good size, easy to swallow, with no aftertaste, featuring quality ingredients. Over these two years, I have not experienced any heart problems or blood sugar issues.

Improves energy levels
Inositol helps lower my blood sugar and improves my diabetes condition. I take it in the morning with alpha lipoic acid. Although I can’t say much has changed dramatically, I feel a sense of internal energy and vitality now. My health has significantly improved, and I am very pleased. I recommend it.

Reduced risk during pregnancy
1 people found this helpful
During my pregnancy, taking myo-inositol significantly reduced the risk of gestational diabetes and insulin resistance in women with existing diabetes. It also protects the embryo against future diabetes and decreases preterm births. Studies show myo-inositol safely assists in treating idiopathic infertility in men by balancing gonadotropic hormones and enhancing sperm quality. As folate helps lower the risk of fetal neural tube defects, myo-inositol can decrease the occurrence of folate-resistant defects.

Improved fertilisation rates

Myo-inositol aids diabetic management
We explored the effects of myo-inositol (MI) on diabetes using db/db mice, a common model for type 2 diabetes. Our findings showed that MI successfully lowered high blood glucose and insulin levels while improving insulin resistance, performing similarly to metformin.

Additionally, MI reduced triglycerides and cholesterol, demonstrating its potential benefits for metabolic health. Although it inhibited the formation of fat cells from stem cells, MI did not address obesity in these mice. Overall, our study suggests that MI may be a valuable supplemental treatment for managing diabetes-associated conditions.
