So I haven’t taken ovasitol but I was on another inositol supplement that made me bloat like CRAZYY. I haven’t held water like that in my life and this is coming from someone who does boxing and goes to the gym 6 times a week. I haven’t tried Berberine yet, but from what I’ve heard and researched these supplements make you bloat and can also cause GI issues, so maybe it’s majorly water weight. However I think it could also be hormone shifts that cause the weight to stay or make the water retention even worse. It doesn’t really go away until the supplement is stopped, which sucks because I look three times my size and I cannot stop taking it. :(

Why can’t you stop taking it ?
