Inositol for PCOS, Insulin Resistance and Depression
What's the mechanism behind Inositol lowering insulin resistance and helping with hormone balancing / PCOS? For context: - There seems to be a lot of anecdotal evidence (many tiktok videos -hopefully not paid-, facebook groups, reddit threads) of women claiming Inositol helped them with fertility, lowering PCOS symptoms, reverting insulin resistance and therefore losing weight. It also seems to help with depression. - The recommended ratio seems to be 40:1 myo and d-chiro inositol - I started taking inositol myself and have noticed positive changes on my mood, energy levels, ability to focus and weight loss.
Timing of taking supplements
I am doing a 7-8 hour eating window and have my first meal between noon-1pm. I usually stretch each morning and take my supplements during the stretch. Will supplements break a fast? Or is there an optimum time of day to take them such as within my eating window? I take: Fish oils, CoQ10, lutien,vit C, MSM, gaba, magnesium,CLA, mushrooms, B-Vita complex, please advise
Education
Hello professor, I would like to know when you will have a podcast with the theme of "education". We, in the neuroscientific area, know that the education and upbringing we receive, from conception on, tremendously influences our lives. It would be amazing to bring this topic to Huberman's podcast, don't you think? By the way, I really liked the episode with Dr. Conti, where he mentioned the important role of childhood in our formation and the marks that come from it. It's a pleasure to be part of this group! Love, Dana
