IP6 is also called inositol.
This nutrient is helpful for some people who have OCD or extreme anxiety issues. It is also recommended for people who have pre-diabetes or diabetes.
My husband takes it for anxiety in gram amounts.

Mostly it is a metabolic stabilizer. A special form call d-chiro inositol is available now for polycystic ovary patients with low fertility and it helps them conceive. I took it for 2 years, and it did lower my androgen levels (less chin hair) but did nothing for my A1C or blood sugars ...and it was $60 a month!
Taking too much may make you too "emotional" so don't take really high doses past a gram a day.
I don't think it directly affects nerves in PN, but it can't do any harm.
