Hi,
I was wondered where would be a good place to get some Inositol, I read on hear that http://www.beyond-a-century.com/ is a good place but I was confused after I looked at all the things they had listed under Inositol:
Is this the right Inositol?
INOSITOL is a sugar found in muscles that does not stimulate insulin release. It is relaxing, helps muscle growth, is a cell membrane stabilizer, and has antitumor & antioxidant properties. May be helpful against arthritis and thinning or graying hair. See *762 IP6. 300 grams, $6.75. Code 104.0Also does anyone know if it is safe to take the drug Picamolin along with a tryciclic antidepressant? (Anafranil)

Yes it's correct. Depending on the condition you are trying to treat you may be able to drastically lower the amount of Inositol you need to ingest to get a therapeutic effect by combining it with other nutrients.
There are also other forms of Inositol which are more effective but which aren't readily available to the public, that have been used in studies.
which may reduce an
I remember an article where it was suggested that the studied dosage of Inositol for panic attacks 12g - 18g daily could be reduced significantly by combining it with IP6 (phytic acid). The dosage was something like 1500mg Inositol and 600mg IP6.I have tried Inositol at large doses and also combined with IP6 and I found it to have zero effect on the frequency of panic that I experienced. However that's me.
Inositol can be combined with GABA , Taurine , Glycine , Vitamin B6 and Niaciamide to provide a mild anxiolytic effect.
The Myoinositol form of Inositol is an essential component of Inositol Hexaphosphate (Phytic Acid) and Inositol is synergistic with Inositol Hexaphosphate (the combination of Inositol + Inositol Hexaphosphate exerts more potent therapeutic effects compared to Inositol Hexaphosphate administered as a “singular” therapy).

Also you might want to read some posts on here about picamilon before getting it. It's actually not that helpful for most people. Wasn't for me either.

read quite a bit recently on the use of inositol specifically in the treatment of ocd... which is what i was looking for, as most other treatments ive done research into have been for my add and depression, hoping for positive side effects to help w/ the ocd. recently come to the conclusion that ocd is most likely nearer the the root of the problem than my other diagnosis'. small tidbits of material hinted at the reason behind this quality being that its somewhat analogous to an ssri... what a surprise.
