Is Inositol Corn Free?

Caution

Sometimes. Inositol is a sugar alcohol naturally present in foods such as fruits, beans, and grains, and is also produced synthetically for use in supplements and processed foods due to its potential role in cellular signaling and metabolic regulation. Inositol should be avoided on a corn-free diet when it is synthesized using corn-derived glucose or other corn-based inputs, as trace residues may be present in the final product. Please contact the manufacturer for details.
