Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) and Diet
Does diet help with PCOS?
Lifestyle changes are a vital component in the management of PCOS. Learning to manage your diet is an important part of this. It is useful to think more positively about what you can do about your diet to help your situation. Once you know which dietary factors are important for you, you will feel you have a clear direction on how to manage your symptoms better. Understanding how the hormones (especially insulin) affect your ability to change your weight is also important.
