I've just ordered some inositol powders to try. Just looking for people's experiences with these and if they've helped anyone?

I Brought some about 2 weeks ago

so far so good

just a small reminder don't take to much because it will give you a very upset tummy

I got the powder and mixed it with Cordial to mask any take and take it every morning with my cereal

i must say i don't have as much mood swings now and feel better

Weight loss i don't weigh myself anymore i measure myself and i've lost 2 inches so far

Thanks for your reply. Been taking the powder for over a month now twice a day first thing in the morning and in the evening. Not noticed any difference yet but a few people have commented on how much weight I've lost. Don't know how much as I don't weigh myself either!

Don't know if your trying for baby but just an update for you. Been trying for baby number 2 for almost a year and after taking inositol for roughly 1.5 months got a very positive pregnancy test yesterday :)

Hey Simplesarah76 and Debm91, can I ask how much powder you take per day? I have just heard about Inositol and am going to give it a go, but wasn't sure of the daily recommended quantity. Many thanks :)

Yea I've read people taking different amounts but thought I'd start off on a low dose and build it up gradually. Just to see if it agrees with my body really xx
