D-Chiro Inositol: Premium Quality for Women's Health
What is D-Chiro Inositol?
D-chiro-inositol (DCI) is an optically active isomer of the nine inositol isomers. Recent studies have revealed that, in addition to its ability to promote liver lipid metabolism, DCI also possesses unique physiological functions, such as insulin sensitization, blood sugar reduction, improved ovulation in patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), hormone regulation, and menstrual irregularities, as well as antioxidant, anti-aging, and anti-inflammatory properties.
At Shaanxi Rebecca Bio-Tech Co., Ltd, we're proud to be a leading manufacturer and supplier of high-quality D-Chiro Inositol (DCI). Our commitment to innovation, quality, and customer satisfaction sets us apart. We offer premium DCI with ≥98% purity, backed by rigorous testing and certifications.

Basic Information
D-chiro-inositol (D-chiro-Inositol, often abbreviated as DCI) is a member of the inositol family, although "inositol"[1] includes several biologically active isomers, including L-chiro-inositol.
MYO (myo-inositol) is converted to DCI (D-chiro-inositol) by the insulin-dependent NAD/NADH epimerase. It is widely recognized as an important auxiliary messenger in insulin signal transduction.
DCI (D-chiro-inositol) accelerates the dephosphorylation of glycogen synthase and pyruvate dehydrogenase, promoting non-oxidative and oxidative glucose processing by the rate-limiting enzymes. DCI (D-chiro-inositol) can reduce insulin resistance caused by defective epimerization of myo-inositol to chiro-inositol, at least partially restoring insulin sensitivity and glucose processing.
Application Areas
D-Chiro-Inositol (DCI), a naturally occurring inositol isomer, possesses a variety of biological activities and applications. The following are its main applications:
Pharmaceuticals: It is primarily used to improve insulin sensitivity and regulate glucose and lipid metabolism. It has been shown to enhance the insulin signaling pathway, helping cells utilize glucose more efficiently, thereby lowering blood sugar levels. This has potential therapeutic benefits for patients with insulin resistance, such as those with pre-type 2 diabetes or metabolic syndrome.
Gynecology: DCI has shown significant efficacy in gynecology, particularly for patients with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Studies have shown that DCI can balance sex hormone levels (e.g., lowering androgens and increasing progesterone), assist in restoring ovulation, alleviate symptoms such as acne and hair loss, and potentially improve pregnancy rates.
Health Supplements: It can be used in health supplements for immune enhancement, antioxidant, and anti-aging benefits. It neutralizes free radicals, reduces oxidative damage, and thus protects cell and tissue health, slowing the aging process. In addition, D-chiro-inositol can enhance immunity, improve the body's resistance, and prevent and treat various diseases.
Cosmetics: It has moisturizing, antioxidant, and anti-aging properties. It can be used in cosmetics to strengthen the skin's barrier function, improve its moisturizing ability, and keep it soft and smooth.
The Effects and Functions of D-Chiro-Inositol
D-Chiro-Inositol is the most optically active of the nine isomers of inositol. It has been shown to enhance insulin sensitization, lower blood sugar, improve ovulation in polycystic ovary syndrome, and regulate hormone balance. It also promotes hepatic lipid metabolism.
D-Chiro-Inositol is widely present in the body, particularly in the nervous system and myocardium. It is an important secondary messenger molecule involved in various metabolic and signal transduction processes. In the human body, D-Chiro-Inositol's primary functions include the following:
Promoting Glucose Absorption and Utilization: It increases the expression and activity of glucose transporters, promoting glucose absorption and utilization by cells, thereby maintaining normal blood sugar levels.
Regulating Cell Membrane Structure and Function: It binds to cell membranes, regulating membrane fluidity and stability, and influencing cell membrane signal transduction and the permeability of molecular channels.
Improving Nervous System Function: It promotes neuronal growth and regeneration, increases neuronal cell survival and activity, and helps improve nervous system function.
Antioxidant effect: It has a strong antioxidant effect, which can neutralize free radicals, reduce oxidative damage, and protect cells from damage.
