✔️ Our product labels are in English, Dutch, German, French, Spanish and Italian Specially formulated for women. This powder contains a special combination of myo-inositol, L-arginine and D-chiro-Inositol (DCI). What is Inositol? Inositol was once considered a B vitamin. Nowadays it is known that the body can manufacture inositol itself. That is why inositol is no longer classified as a vitamin, but is referred to as a 'pseudo vitamin' or 'half vitamin'. In the body, inositol is part of the cell membranes. The cell membrane is the thin sheet that surrounds the cell. The cell membrane selects which substances can enter the cell or which substances must remain outside the cell. Inositol is found in small amounts in a range of foods, but the main natural sources are fruit, nuts, cereals and lecithin. There are nine different forms of inositol. When people talk about inositol, they are often talking about myo-Inositol; one of the nine structures. It is a stable form that is therefore well suited to use in supplements. Although the body makes inositol itself, in certain situations the need for inositol can exceed the body's own production and dietary intake. Inositol powder is an effective way to take a high dose of myo-inositol, to quickly supplement the body's own production. Ratio of myo-inositol and D-Chiro-Inositol Each scoop of Inositol powder contains a dose of 1950 mg of myo-inositol. This corresponds to the amount in approximately 4 capsules (where there is no room to add other substances). In Inositol powder, the high dosage of myo-inositol is combined with D-chiro-Inositol (DCI). Although they are very similar in chemical structure, the areas of action of these two forms of inositol in the body are different. Myo-inositol can be converted into D-chiro-Inositol in the body to a limited extent. When this process runs optimally, the ratio of myo-inositol to D-chiro-inositol in the tissues is 40:1. This natural ratio is maintained in Inositol powder. Make the right choice Because of the differences, sometimes it makes sense to choose myo-inositol, in other circumstances there is a preference for D-chiro-inositol. Therefore, there are also single ingredient capsules within the Ovabalance range that contain only D-Chiro-Inositol.

But amino acids are also needed to make numerous cells, organs, hormones and neurotransmitters. Some amino acids must be obtained from food. These are the essential amino acids, which the body does not make itself. Some amino acids are semi-essential. The body can synthesise these amino acids itself from other amino acids. Circumstances may cause the need for a semi-essential amino acid to be greater than the diet provides or the rate at which the body makes it to be faster. This is when the amino acid becomes essential. Semi-essential amino acids can also be considered essential if you eat vegetarian or vegan. L-arginine is a semi-essential amino acid. It is found in protein-rich foods, including: Fish Red meat Poultry Dairy products Soy Nuts In the body, L-arginine is built into proteins. Your body also converts it into other amino acids, such as ornithine and proline. L-arginine is also converted into a substance called nitric oxide (NO). An arginine supplement ensures that you get an extra portion of arginine quickly. This product contains 500 mg of the natural L-form of arginine per dose. In capsule form, you will not find this amount of arginine together with a high dose of other raw materials. In this combination, this inositol powder is actually a two-in-one supplement. Why Ovabalance Inositol powder? Inositol powder contains a unique combination of three high-quality raw materials that complement each other. For these doses of inositol and L-arginine you would normally need to buy two separate products. Each scoop contains a generous amount of myo-inositol with L-arginine, supplemented with DCI. High, yet responsible dosage Natural 40:1 ratio of two inositol isomers Pure powder, without additives This supplement is suitable for vegetarians and vegans. For Inositol powder, there is full control of the entire production process, from the raw material to the packaged finished product The product contains 130 grams of powder per pack Due to health claims legislation, we are unfortunately unable to provide complete information on this dietary supplement.
