Inositol is a cyclic sugar alcohol with a ring structure consisting of six carbon atoms and six hydroxyl groups (-OH). It is classified as a vitamin-like substance and is widely distributed in both plants and animals, particularly in fruits, legumes, and whole grains. Inositol plays a critical role in the structure of cell membranes and cellular signal transduction, and is involved in physiological processes such as lipid metabolism and neurotransmitter regulation.
