I was in this study in Boston in 98. The results should be available
this year. However, reading the responces, I am confused. It was my
understanding that it consisted of 3 different ingrediants - one from
nuts. DCI is not to be confused with ordinary Inositol which is found
in regular foods. I thing found in some nuts. Been too long to
remember the exact details and which nuts.
