Inositol, also known as cyclohexyl hexyl alcohol, hexahydroxycyclohexane, cyclohexitol, myo-inositol, and inositol, is one of the B vitamins. Due to the different orientations of the hydroxyl groups relative to the ring plane, there are 9 isomers in total. Body, of which 7 are non-optical and 2 are optically active (levorotatory and dextrorotatory). It exists in all biological tissues in free or combined form in nature, and is a component that often exists in animal and plant cells. It can be synthesized by microorganisms in the digestive tract and participate in carbohydrate and lipid metabolism in the body. Animals mainly exist in the form of phosphatidylinositol, which is most abundant in the brain, cardiac muscle and skeletal muscle; plants mainly exist in the form of phosphoinositol, and can combine with calcium, zinc, iron, etc. to form insoluble compounds, which interfere with their digestion and absorption . When lacking inositol in animal diet, hair loss occurs and affects development. Inositol is related to intracellular calcium metabolism, and its triphosphate derivatives can be released from lipid conjugates after cells are stimulated, acting as second messengers, mobilizing intracellular calcium ions, and regulating many cellular activities, such as Secretion, metabolism, light conduction and cell division, etc.

1. Inositol has the effect of accelerating the metabolism of cells in the body.
2. Inositol has the effect of emulsifying fat.
3. Inositol can help metabolize fat and cholesterol, so as to avoid fatty liver.
4. Inositol can promote the metabolism of fat and cholesterol, and has a significant effect on improving hyperlipidemia, fatty liver, and reducing serum lipids.
5. Inositol is good for eye protection and can prevent hair loss.
1. Inositol The phytic acid extracted from rice bran or bran can be used as an antioxidant, stabilizer and preservative for food.

2. Inositol can be widely used in medicine, chemical industry, food, etc. It has curative effect on diseases such as liver ulcer and vascular sclerosis, and can also be used as a raw material for high-end cosmetics, with high economic value.

3. Inositol can be used in the pharmaceutical industry. When used together with vitamin B complex, inositol can prevent or reduce excessive fat deposition in the liver, promote fat metabolism in the liver, reduce blood fat, and eliminate fatty infiltration of liver cells.
