What is PCOS? Understanding the basics
PCOS (Polycystic O***y Syndrome) is a hormonal condition affecting millions of women worldwide. It’s characterized by irregular periods, excess androgen production, and small, fluid-filled cysts in the ovaries.
The good news? Diet can make a difference. A balanced, nutrient-rich diet can help manage PCOS symptoms and support overall health.
Key strategies include:
Adequate protein intake
Healthy fats for hormone support
Controlled carbohydrate intake
Micronutrients are just as important:
Omega-3 – helps reduce inflammation and improve insulin sensitivity
Vitamin D – supports calcium balance and reproductive health
Magnesium – aids blood sugar regulation and proper muscle & nerve function
Small, consistent dietary changes can have a big impact on managing PCOS and improving long-term wellness.
