Hi all,
I am on 12-16 grams of inositol on daily basis for the past two months. The good thing is it help me a great deal on panic attacks resulted from quitting smoking, and it also stop the craving either on foods or nicotine.
I understand that the main side effect of inositol is bloated stomach, gas, explosive stool/diarrhea ,but I never expect it to affect me that much. Sometime it is so bad that I begin to suffer palpitation and jitteriness due to the losses of electrolyte and mineral s due to diarrhea.
Some people advise to lessen the intake per day but I notice once I reduce the dosage it don't help on the looping thoughts and that caused me to become nervous and agitated.
On the very first day of taking inositol I have the very best mood of my life , it's a very "present" and non chalant feeling. But thereafter it's seems that my stomach can't handle the higher dosage and it didn't work out that well.
Now I would appreciate if anyone having the setback from inositol could provide me any solution to solve the explosive stool problem. I call it bubbling stomach becos the moment I took in 6 grams of inositol, you can literally hear my stomach go rumbling, as if some blowing air thru a straw into your stomach...very irritating and the next thing you know , you are bombing the toilet.....:D
