Product Application of Inositol CAS#87-89-8
Inositol is an essential vitamin-like compound involved in lipid metabolism within the body. It can support the absorption of lipid-lowering drugs and vitamins, while also promoting cell growth and fat metabolism in the liver and other tissues.
It is used as an auxiliary treatment ingredient for conditions such as fatty liver and high cholesterol. In addition, inositol is widely applied in food and feed additives, and is commonly incorporated into fish, shrimp, and livestock feed at a typical dosage of 350–500 mg/kg.
