How to Use It

Although a common amount of inosine taken by athletes is 5,000–6,000 mg per day, little scientific evidence supports the use of this supplement in any amount.

Where to Find It

Inosine is found in brewer’s yeast and organ meats. It is also available as a supplement.

Possible Deficiencies

Inosine is not an essential nutrient, so deficiencies do not occur.
