Metabolite Identification
Common NameD-Pinitol
DescriptionD-Pinitol, also known as pinit, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as cyclohexanols. Cyclohexanols are compounds containing an alcohol group attached to a cyclohexane ring. D-Pinitol is found, on average, in the highest concentration within a few different foods, such as carobs (Ceratonia siliqua), soy beans (Glycine max), and common peas (Pisum sativum). D-Pinitol has also been detected, but not quantified in, ginkgo nuts (Ginkgo biloba). This could make D-pinitol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on D-Pinitol.
