Episode 73: PCOS, Hormones, and Nutrition
PCOS, Hormones, and Nutrition
This episode is all about how to approach nutrition without restriction when dealing with a PCOS diagnosis. I had a chat with Amanda Forman, a registered dietitian specializing in polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and women's health.
We talk about:
What PCOS is and what's happening in the body;
Why the advice of "cutting out carbs" doesn't help a PCOS patient;
What someone with PCOS can do when they are frustrated with the many symptoms such as weight gain and difficulty losing weight;
What PCOS patients can focus on to improve their overall health from an intuitive perspective vs another diet;
a brief review of women's hormonal health and what you should do if you're feeling like your hormones are "all over the place".
