When the acetyl-CoA generated from the beta-oxidation of fats enters the Krebs cycle, it undergoes a series of transformations, eventually reaching the stage where succinate is converted into fumarate by the enzyme succinate dehydrogenase
Skeletal muscle, ligament, and bone-defect models have produced comparable healing-rate findings, summarized in the 2021 wound-healing review (PMID 34267654) and the 2025 musculoskeletal narrative review (PMID 40789979)

It fights many diseases, particularly those associated with aging

Meta-analyses and systematic reviews report that MI alone or combined with DCI in a 40:1 ratio may help support ovulation frequency, menstrual regularity, insulin sensitivity, and some hormone-related markers in people with PCOS.1 2 3 31 That said, responses vary, and improvements tend to be gradual rather than dramatic.17 People seeking fertility or egg-quality support Inositol has been studied in fertility and assisted reproductive settings, where it appears to support oocyte maturation and ovarian responsiveness particularly in people with PCOS or insulin-related reproductive dysfunction.27 28 45 Some studies report improvements in egg quality and fertilization outcomes with consistent use, though evidence is strongest in PCOS populations and more limited in people without underlying metabolic or hormonal concerns.17 Pregnant individuals at risk for gestational diabetes Several clinical trials and meta-analyses suggest that myo-inositol supplementation during pregnancy may reduce the risk of gestational diabetes in people who are already considered higher risk.9 24 25 26 45 Because pregnancy is a unique physiological state, decisions about inositol supplementation during pregnancy should be made with guidance from a healthcare professional familiar with your medical history
