A REVIEW ON THE DIVERSE EFFECTS OF D-PINITOL

, 2018
D-Pinitol, a mono-methylated form of D-chiro-inositol, was identified as an active principle in soy foods and legumes. Mature and dried soybean seeds contain up to 1% D-pinitol. D-pinitol functions in plants as an osmolyte by improving the tolerance to drought stress or heat stress. Pinitol has well-known insulinlike effects.
