Default D-Chiro Inositol research

Hi again,

Just wanted to start a thread for all research articles showing a relation between d-chiro-inositol deficiency and IR/PCOS. I'm starting to notice that all studies I've seen so far are authored by or associated with Dr. Nestler, who is linked to Insmed, the pharmaceutical company getting ready to profit from INS-1, the commercial version of d-chiro-inositol.

Does anyone know of any articles by sources other than the Virginia Tech/Dr. Nestler study? Please note, I am not trying to say that there is something fishy going on here, I'm just trying to get second opinions, hopefully from some more objective sources who haven't been commissioned by investors of a drug company that stands to profit if it is confirmed that their drug works.

Thanks in advance. Be well...
