If the animal feed lacks of inositol, it will appear the hair loss phenomenon, and after supplementation, it will re-grow. The shedding hair speed of male animal is twice fast than female, which means that male on the needs of inositol are larger than female.

Human lacks of inositol will cause constipation,The importance of inositol and choline to human health Articles eczema (dermatitis) and eye abnormalities and other symptoms. Inositol was concentrated in the human eye crystal and cardiac muscle, very important to visual and heart function. In the body, except for nicotinic acid, the content of inositol is much larger than the other vitamins.

 

In an experiment, subjects taking vitamin B, plus barium, by fluorescence microscopy, study the gastrointestinal motility - gastrointestinal motility promotes the digestion and absorption of food, prevents flatulence and abdominal pain. The results showed that in all of the B vitamins, only inositol can significantly increase gastrointestinal motility, stimulate the appetite and eliminate constipation.

 

Myelin which protect the nerve surface are mostly constituted by the lecithin, when the myelin damaged, it will cause multiple sclerosis. Lecithin helps to digest, absorb and transport the blood vitamin A, D, E and K which dissolved in fat, it is possible to promote cells utilizing fat. As one part of constituting lecithin, inositol and choline can be considered as the main component of egg yolk.

 

The most abundant source of choline is animal brain, liver, yeast, wheat germ, kidney and egg yolk. Due to the methionine can produce this vitamin, so that the body should not be lacking choline. The enzyme in methionine forms of choline, this process requires sufficient vitamin B12 and folic acid.

 

In clinical experiments, human conditions are very similar with animals. For example, animals are the same with humans, when they lack of choline, they cannot manufacture lecithin, thus led to high cholesterol. The normal blood cholesterol levels in children's blood should not exceed 140mg, while the nephritis patients' cholesterol levels were averaged 570mg. Even if the diet is rich in protein, once the body lack of choline, a number of fast-growing small animals are likely to suffer from nephritis, such as pups, calves, etc. This disease will slow down their growth, reduce the need for protein, turn the extra methionine into choline to enable them to survive. Similarly, the growing children are also likely to suffer from nephritis to slow down their growth rate, although someone has been suffered from this disease and death, but most people can survive in general.

 

If animal foods lack of choline, it will cause high blood pressure. According to pharmaceutical raw materials suppliers, medical profession had been conducted a study on 158 patients with severe hypertension, their blood pressure is extremely high, some people had been suffering stroke or eyes bleeding; Some of them are suffered from nephritis, these people are long-term medical treated but without effect. So just let them take choline and maintain their daily diet, after 5-10 days, headache, vertigo, tinnitus, angina, constipation and other symptoms have been reduced, even completely disappear. After three weeks, all patients' blood pressure are reduced, of which a lot of people back to normal, other aspects improved, patients said that they could sleep better, the body is no longer hydrops, vasodilation, the load on the heart also reduced. After stop taking choline, blood pressure raise again, the other symptoms also recurrence.

 

If gave little animals low protein content and choline deficiency feed, the excessive fat which accumulated in the liver will make them forming of cirrhosis like humans, the proportion of died of liver cancer is high. Currently, the most obvious symptom of choline deficiency is the liver accumulating excessive fat, and it is also the only symptom that doctors can diagnose.
