We investigated how inositol supplementation could counteract heart issues caused by lithium in mice. Our study involved four groups of mice to explore the varying effects of inositol. One group received lithium alone, another received lithium followed by inositol, a third group had both lithium and inositol from the start, and a control group had no treatment at all.

The results were promising. We found that inositol had a protective effect against the heart damage typically associated with lithium. Specifically, it helped improve heart function and reduced susceptibility to arrhythmias—irregular heartbeats. We also noted that inositol seemed to restore healthy levels of certain proteins crucial for heart health, helping to reduce cell enlargement and stress associated with hypertrophy.

Interestingly, the benefits of inositol were evident regardless of whether it was given alongside lithium or afterward as a treatment. These findings suggest that inositol could be a valuable addition to therapy for those facing lithium-induced cardiac issues, offering a potential pathway to better heart health.

ITPP improves heart function in PH
We investigated the effects of myo-inositol trispyrophosphate (ITPP) on rats with pulmonary hypertension (PH), a condition that often leads to serious heart issues. To do this, we injected some rats with monocrotaline to induce PH and treated others with a placebo. For five weeks, we closely monitored their heart function using echocardiograms and other advanced techniques.

Our findings revealed that ITPP significantly reduced mortality linked to PH. While it didn't change the increasing resistance in the pulmonary vessels, ITPP importantly alleviated hypoxia within the right ventricle (RV), which is crucial for maintaining heart function. This reduction in RV hypoxia not only improved heart performance but also decreased stress on the heart’s structure.

Furthermore, we noticed that ITPP appeared to inhibit an increase in a specific protein associated with low oxygen levels, though it didn't affect the density of blood vessels in the RV. Overall, this suggests that enhancing oxygen delivery with ITPP could provide a crucial therapeutic avenue for improving heart health in patients suffering from pulmonary hypertension.

Nervousness experienced

After taking one capsule post-meal, the effects were aggressive and nervous for both adults and children. Choline increases nerve fiber conductivity, causing excessive brain excitation; I certainly do not recommend it for children or middle-aged individuals.

Inositol complements choline by aiding cholesterol and fat metabolism. Choline is key for neurotransmitter production, essential for managing cardiovascular disease, memory, and liver protection. When combined with regular exercise, a daily dosage of about 1g is advisable. Inositol promotes relaxation and has properties beneficial for cardiovascular issues and nervous tissue restoration.
