| Core Tip |
This meta-analysis reviews evidence on using inositol supplements to prevent and treat gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Findings show it significantly lowers GDM rates, fasting blood sugar, and the risk of bad pregnancy outcomes. This suggests inositol is a safe and effective option. Specifically, myo-inositol supplements reduced new GDM cases by 63% and improved glucose tolerance test results. They also decreased chances of preterm birth and pregnancy-induced high blood pressure. While inositol works well for prevention in high-risk women, we need more trials to confirm its treatment benefits for existing GDM. Therefore, clinicians can consider inositol as a preventive measure early in pregnancy for women with risk factors. |
