• It is particularly important to get during pregnancy. Folate deficiency during pregnancy can lead to neural tube irregularities, such as spina bifida and anencephaly.
• Folic acid is crucial for early fetal development.
• Neural tube irregularities - Taking folic acid supplements before and during pregnancy will help prevent neural tube irregularities in the fetus.
• It may also reduce the risks of preterm birth, heart irregularities, and cleft palate, among other things.

Inositol is a vitamin-like substance. It is found in many plants and animals. It is also
produced in the human body and can be made in a laboratory.
Inositol can be found in many forms (called isomers). The most common forms are
myo-inositol and D-chiro-inositol.

Inositol is used to for metabolic syndrome and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS).
It is also used as a complementary therapy for metabolic and mood disorders.

 Dizziness

The metabolic effects of Inositol may not be appropriate for everyone. Even in
people with diabetes, the prolonged use or overuse of inositol may lead
to hypoglycemia(low blood sugar).
There is also some concern that high doses of inositol hexaphosphate may reduce
the body's ability to absorb zinc, calcium, iron, and other essential minerals,
triggering a nutritional deficiency even if you're eating a balanced diet.

• It is an essential cofactor for many enzymes related to energy metabolism, and activates the insulin-signaling cascade to help lower blood sugar.
• Alpha-lipoic converts blood sugar (glucose) into energy using oxygen, a process referred to as aerobic metabolism. Alpha-lipoic acid is also considered an antioxidant, meaning that it can neutralize harmful compounds called free radicals that damage cells at the genetic level.

• It has long been presumed that alpha-lipoic acid can aid in the control of glucose by increasing the speed in which the blood sugar is metabolized. This could potentially aid in the treatment of diabetes
