Inositol is a nutrient that's considered a member of the B-vitamin family.  It is found in cell membrane structures and is important for metabolism of fat and cholesterol, including removal of fat from the liver. High concentrations of inositol are required for the body to function effectively. When the levels are extremely low, it may create severe detrimental effects on the body such as hair loss, anxiety and depressions, diabetic changes, high blood cholesterol levels, and probably increased risk of getting cardiovascular diseases, so supplementing with Inositol can help treat a wide variety of health conditions.

Inositol helps maintain the integrity of the cellular membranes and is important for the proper functioning of the brain and nervous system. Research studies have indicated that those people with low levels of inositol in their body have a good chance of suffering from these psychological disorders. It takes part in the production of serotonin in the brain and nervous system, thus having a positive effect on them.

It assist in calming the nerves, and has been shown to be very effective for the treatment of psychological disorders such as obsessive compulsive disorder, anxiety, panic disorders, depression, and other disorders that respond to serotonin uptake inhibitors. It is also responsible for triggering the release of calcium within the body cells, which are considered effective in the treatment of certain nervous system disorders such as panic attacks, anxiety.

Many health experts recommend inositol for the prevention of cancer. This has been proved with the help of a few in-vitro studies which indicates that, when combined with phytic acid, it may help in fighting against cancer. Its action against cancer is by inhibiting the activity of acidic fibroblast growth, and by inhibiting blood vessel development and decreased tumor growth.

Research studies have concluded that inositol may be useful in the treatment of symptoms associated with Metabolic syndrome, a group of conditions that increases the risk of diabetes, stroke, and heart disease. These medical conditions may include obesity, high triglyceride levels, insulin resistance, low levels of good cholesterol, and high blood pressure. It causes the release of histamine in the body, which relaxes the muscles around the arteries, thus improving blood flow. It is also known to break up a protein that causes the blood to clot.

Inositol is a fundamental part of every human cell, which combines with other nutrients to conduct a variety of body functions. It plays an important role in human nutrition, and is essential for the proper functioning of the various systems in the body. It offers a number of health benefits to the user.
