D-Chiro-Inositol (DCI) and Inositol (commonly referred to as Vitamin B8) are related but distinct compounds. Here’s a detailed comparison to clarify their similarities, differences, and individual applications:
Aspect | Inositol (Myo-Inositol) | D-Chiro-Inositol (DCI) |
---|---|---|
Common Name | Myo-Inositol (often called Vitamin B8, though not a true vitamin) | D-Chiro-Inositol (DCI) |
Chemical Formula | C₆H₁₂O₆ | C₆H₁₂O₆ (isomer of inositol) |
CAS Number | 87-89-8 | 643-12-9 |
Structure Type | Cyclohexanehexol (1st most common inositol isomer) | Stereoisomer of inositol with a different spatial arrangement |
Natural Occurrence | Abundant in plants, fruits, grains | Found in small amounts in the body; synthesized from myo-inositol |
Biological Role | Cell membrane signaling, nerve transmission, hormone regulation | Insulin signal mediator, metabolic and hormonal regulator |
Key Applications | PCOS, anxiety, depression, fertility, metabolic syndrome | PCOS, insulin resistance, glucose metabolism, ovarian function |
Dose (typical) | 2–4 g/day for PCOS or mood-related support | 300–1200 mg/day, often combined with Myo-Inositol in a 40:1 ratio |
Synergy | Often paired with DCI for synergistic effect in PCOS | Acts as the downstream agent in the Myo-Inositol to DCI pathway |
Vegan Status | Vegan-friendly (plant-derived) | Vegan-friendly (fermentation-derived) |
Market Status | Widely used, well-researched | Niche but growing market, especially in women’s health |
Inositol (Myo-Inositol) is the most abundant and primary form of inositol in the body. It plays a broad role in mental health, reproduction, and cellular function.
D-Chiro-Inositol is a specific isomer that functions more directly in insulin signaling and glucose metabolism, making it especially valuable in metabolic and hormonal disorders like PCOS.
They are often used together in clinical practice, particularly in a 40:1 Myo:DCI ratio, to restore physiological balance and improve ovarian function in PCOS management.
