Absorption and biosynthesis of D‐chiro‐inositol in mice
D‐chiro‐inositol (DCI) is known to possess insulin‐like properties. Mice were fed with either regular chow (control group) or DCI‐free diet over a five‐week period. The levels of DCI declined significantly in plasma (1.91 ± 0.17 to 0.056 ± 0.0 μM), stool (20.2 ± 6 to 0.147 ± 0.05 nmoles) and urine (27.39 ± 8.2 ...

D-chiro-Inositol and Pinitol Extend the Life Span of Drosophila melanogaster [PDF]
D-chiro-inositol, a member of the inositol family, and pinitol, a 3-methoxy analogue of D-chiro-inositol, have been proposed to have antidiabetic, antiinflammatory, anticancer and stamina enhancing effects. We found that supplementing the diet of Drosophila with D-chiro-inositol and pinitol extended adult longevity in both male and female flies.
