Description
Myo-Inositol Product Overview
Myo-inositol (C6H12O6) is a white crystalline powder with a slightly sweet taste that dissolves easily in water. It is the most common form of inositol in nature and was formerly called vitamin B8, although the body can make it.
In addition, producers of nutritional products use it in powders, capsules and sachets, often combined with folic acid and D-Biotin (Vitamin B7), within the regulations of each market. Similarly, infant formula producers add it to match the composition of breast milk, pet food producers use it in diets, and cosmetic formulators use it as a humectant. Biotechnology companies also use it in cell culture media.
Notably, related ingredients in our range include Vitamin B9 (Folic Acid), Choline Hydrogen Tartrate and Chromium Picolinate.
