Interactions
synergistic. Myo-inositol and folate both support neural tube development; inositol activates PI3K/Akt insulin signaling while folate provides methyl groups — synergistic in PCOS and pregnancy
synergistic. Both improve insulin sensitivity — inositol restores PI3K/Akt signaling while magnesium is cofactor for insulin receptor tyrosine kinase
competes. Lithium works by depleting intracellular inositol via inositol monophosphatase inhibition; exogenous inositol may counteract this therapeutic mechanism
