Are You Struggling With Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)? Here’s A Natural Solution For You!

What is the best way to treat PCOS? Health experts now agree PCOS is strongly linked to poor blood sugar control.

PCOS Diet & Lifestyle Plan - Diet Recommendations

Insulin Resistance Syndrome is condition marked by poor blood sugar control and weight gain. Insulin resistance is usually an underlying problem in women suffering PCOS, even when they are not overweight.

Here are my top PCOS diet tips;

• Avoid sugary foods. The worst offenders are soft drinks (soda), cookies, cakes, chocolate, sweets and processed breakfast cereals.

• Avoid foods containing sugar compounds such as high-fructose corn syrup, sorbitol, fructose, mannitol, maltitol, isomalt & glycerol.

• Avoid ‘diet’ foods containing harmful artificial sweeteners. There is clear-cut evidence that artificial sweeteners do not assist blood sugar control. In fact, these synthetic chemical sweeteners can actually stimulate your desire for sugary foods.

• Increase the consumption of fruit & vegetables. Ideally you should consume 2 serves of fruit and 5 serves of vegetables daily.

  Note: Obtain organic fruit & vegetables if possible. Certified organic products are grown and processed without the use of synthetic chemicals, fertilisers or genetic modification. Organic produce is a better option as your hormone imbalance may make you overly sensitive to the hidden chemicals commonly found in conventional fruit and vegetables.

  If you cannot source organic fruit and vegetables it is possible to wash all fruit and vegetables in a solution of one part apple cider vinegar to twelve parts water to remove pesticide and chemical residues. Rinse the fruit & vegetables in filtered water to remove the vinegar smell.

• Limit processed grain based foods such as boxed breakfast cereals, white bread and pasta. Choose small amounts of wholegrain alternatives such as: muesli, porridge, steamed rice, wholegrain pasta and wholegrain breads, including spelt & rye.

  Note: Fibre is abundant in fruit, vegetables and wholegrains. Fibre contributes to improved blood sugar control and healthy bowel function.

• Dietary protein helps balance your blood sugar. Fresh fish, lean red meat, organic chicken, organic eggs, whole grains and legumes are all good sources of protein.

  You can also supplement your diet with a protein shake. Choose a protein shake that contains both whey protein concentrate (WPC) and whey protein isolate (WPI) to ensure you receive the full spectrum of benefits. If you prefer a non-dairy vegetarian protein then pea protein isolate is the ideal choice. This plant based protein is sourced from the golden pea (Pisum sativum). It has a low allergy potential making it suitable for individuals with a dairy intolerance.

• The type of fat in your diet plays an important role in assisting with insulin reception at the cell level. Cold water fish, organic eggs, avocadoes, extra virgin olive oil, macadamia nut oil and raw nuts and seeds are rich in essential fatty acids.

• Are you ready to get the junk out of your body? Stop buying meals from fast food outlets. These foods are packed with calories, sugar and unhealthy ingredients.

• Limit the intake of saturated fats that are found in red meat, chicken, deli meats and dairy foods. Avoid trans fats found in margarine, TV dinners, commercially prepared snack foods and deep fried food.

• Ensure you eat regularly and choose healthy snacks mid morning and mid afternoon to balance your blood sugar levels between meals. Fruit, nuts, seeds, protein shakes and natural yoghurt all make healthy snacks.

PCOS Diet & Lifestyle Plan - Lifestyle Recommendations

• Quit smoking. Smoking stimulates androgen production, the male hormones that exacerbate weight gain, excess facial hair and acne.

• Avoid alcohol. Alcohol places extra stress on the liver, a major organ that assists in balancing your hormone levels.

• Manage stress and anxiety. Reducing stress can help balance your hormones. Do things that you enjoy and follow your passion, whatever that may be.

• Stay well hydrated by drinking 1.5 – 2 litres of filtered water daily. This will detox your system and can reduce fluid retention problems.

• Get Moving. Perform light to moderate exercise 3-5 times a week. Regular exercise leads to weight loss and improves your capacity to deal with stress.
