Long Description:
Chemical. CAS: 643-12-9. Formula: C6H12O6. MW: 180.16. D-chiro Inositol is a insulin sensitizing agent. It is a secondary messenger in the signal transduction of insulin. D-chiro Inositol reduces the effects of polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) activity in cells. D-chiro Inositol is a mediator of insulin action via accelerating the dephosphorylation of glycogen synthase and pyruvate dehydrogenase and rate limiting enzymes of non-oxidative and oxidative glucose disposal. As a result of these actions D-chiro Inositol functions to reduce insulin resistance and increase sensitivity and glucose disposal. Can also be used as a building block for organic synthesis.
