chp 3/12 — why these habits help me manage PCOS 🤍
I contribute these habits to helping me manage my flare up! I genuinely feel so much better after I committed to these habits:
1. balance blood sugar (this keeps androgens low)
- eat within 30 min of waking up so blood sugar isn’t
crashing
- eat a high protein, high fat (savory) breakfast that
keeps you full for 4 hours
- take blood sugar balancing supplements before
meals like berberine or inositol
2. movement
- move your body within 60 mins of breakfast !! This
has been GAME CHANGING!! Keeps my blood sugar
better balanced
- I either do 30 min of cardio daily along with
resistance training to build lean muscle
- OR pilates 3-4x a week
3. detox
- sauna 1-2x a week for 20 minutes
- go to bed early + 8 hours every night which is the
ultimate recovery & detox for the body!
- lymphatic drainage like dry brushing, facial massage,
jumping
4. acne
- switch to non pore clogging ingredients! I LOVE
!! Their products have stopped
me from getting closed condones!!
- potentially reduce eggs, whey protein, gluten, dairy
because they can cause inflammation if you have a
sensitivity or intolerance
- hydrate!! literally drink water
Excited to continue these habits to see how I feel in April 🥹✨
