As a natural insulin sensitizer, D-Chiro-Inositol (DCI) can alleviate the signs and symptoms of PCOS. Clinical trials show that DCI is able to restore ovulation and fertility in many women with PCOS.

DCI is what is known as a secondary messenger in the insulin signaling process and is considered an insulin sensitizer. When you eat food, sugar is extracted and goes into your blood. Your pancreas releases insulin in response to the sugar. The insulin tells the cells of your body to either burn the sugar for energy or to store it as fat for later. As the sugar level goes down, the insulin level goes down as well. Insulin doesn’t communicate directly with the cells, however. It communicates through a secondary messenger made out of DCI. 

Another important thing that happens to women when there is insulin in your blood: the ovaries release testosterone in response to the insulin. This is natural. As the sugar is disposed of, the insulin level goes down and the ovaries stop releasing testosterone. 

DCI is not abundant in diet. It is scarce in foods, so your body must make it from myo-inositol, which is abundant in many foods. But, the transformation is a complicated process with many steps that some people are not able to do very well. As a result, they don’t have enough DCI and the sugar doesn’t get disposed of quickly. 

If you don’t have enough DCI, the insulin level stays high, which means that the gonads keep producing testosterone. This high level of testosterone is the origin of many of the signs and symptoms of PCOS—anovulation (not ovulating), irregular or absent periods, ovarian cysts, unwanted body hair, hair loss, belly fat, acne, infertility, etc.

CHIRAL BALANCE

Founded in 2005 by Dr. Travis Johnson, DO, MS, and his Mother Dr. Alice Johnson, DDS, Chiral Balance was the first company to make D-chiro-inositol (DCI) available. At that time, no company was making or selling D-chiro-inositol (DCI) in the entire United States, despite the established benefits of D-chiro-inositol (DCI).

"In addition to being the first name in PURE DCI 600mg, Chiral Balance aims to provide unbiased information about hormone imbalance and blood sugar issues based on strong evidence and good science.

Dr. Alice Johnson first learned about the benefits of DCI at a conference on human nutrition in early 2005. At that time, DCI had stunning clinical study results, but it was unavailable. Chiral Balance fixed that.

If you email or call you'll probably talk to Sally. Growing up in Australia but living in Austin Texas now, Sally was diagnosed with PCOS at age 17 and knows first hand how confusing and overwhelming a diagnosis can be. She joined our family business in 2019 and loves helping our customers.

Here is a vitamin shown to give substantial benefits to people who struggle to find all-natural alternatives. We hope it helps you, too."
