Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a metabolic disorder that is common among women of reproductive age. Diet and lifestyle changes have been shown to balance hormones and promote better overall health. Although dietary changes have been proven to be effective, they can often seem too restrictive, resulting in women finding it difficult to sustain the diet or finding their health further diminished because their diet falls out of balance, and cutting out certain foods or food groups has caused them to become deficient in key nutrients. In her new book, A Balanced Approach to PCOS, Melissa Groves Azzaro, RDN, LD, an award-winning integrative registered dietitian, offers women a new approach to treating PCOS that is sustainable, all-inclusive, and provides proven results. Melissa’s approach is straightforward and sensible—perfectly balanced, nutrient-dense meals that are designed to address the root causes of PCOS. Each meal features a perfect ratio of protein, fat, and fiber that will help improve symptoms without feelings of deprivation. Melissa’s recipes are customizable and target the primary factors contributing to PCOS: insulin resistance, inflammation, and hormone and gut imbalances. A Balanced Approach to PCOS includes: • A guide to identifying and understanding the symptoms of PCOS • An explanation of each food group and how it helps alleviate the symptoms of PCOS • 16 weeks of meal prep recipes for breakfast, lunch, and dinner for busy women • Bonus smoothie, snack, and dessert recipes • Time-saving tips, shopping lists, and more! Melissa is for all women looking for a long-term plan to manage PCOS. She is a thought-leader and nutrition expert who has already helped hundreds of women improve their symptoms without spending hours in the kitchen or sacrificing the foods they love.

Download or read book Comprehensive Guide to Nutrition in Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome Pcos written by Annchen Weidemann and published by . This book was released on 2019-07-25 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is the single largest cause of infertility in women of childbearing age, with the incidence having risen from around 15 % to 21 % within 6 8 years. Not only has the incidence risen in this population, but in adolescents, PCOS is being diagnosed earlier and more frequently, than ever before. There is no written diet or single food that cures PCOS, but factors from Westernized eating such as trans fats, advanced glycation end-products and fructose overload, are factors which affect both the development of PCOS and the resistance to drug-related treatment of it. For the woman with PCOS, whether trying to fall pregnant of manage symptoms, it is of cardinal importance to understand that a diet mentality is inappropriate, since the entire lifestyle should be changed to favour the menstrual cycle and the production of its hormones for at least 3three months prior to expecting normal ovulation. The awakening and development of the primordial follicle destined to become the ovulatory one, 85 days prior to ovulation, points to the compulsory consistency of improved eating habits and lifestyle. Almost every single food/meal/drink/snack has an influence on your ovulatory capacity. It is imperative that the PCOS woman seeking help for either symptomatic relief or fertility, understands the relationship of the hormonal chaos of PCOS to the hormonal chaos of a poor diet. The standard dietary composition, of 20 % protein, 50 % carbohydrate and 30 % fat, was used to treat PCOS since the beginning of research, after the discovery of PCOS as Stein-Leventhal syndrome in 1935. Weight loss was known to be the most important factor in treating PCOS, but no progress was made, and the drop-out rate of diets given to these women was extremely high. For some reason, women with PCOS could not adhere to a formal diet, and battled weight loss, although small studies could not confirm this. The answer to this probably lies in the disturbance of their hunger and satiety cascade, regulated by insulin. New drugs have seen the light and were tested on females with PCOS with mediocre results, showing that something else but the PCOS was at play. This book is dedicated to show the power and strength of poor dietary habits (and visa versa) on drug treatment of PCOS, and the lack of need for it when dietary habits and lifestyles are improved. In PCOS, drugs could probably never win over a poor eating lifestyle, which is a point often missed by fertility specialists eager to help with a quick -fix, rather than a longer process that can be maintained over the long-term. The mere fact that in women undergoing IVF treatment, end-stage-glycation products were found in their oocytes, tells a story of the horrendous effect of poor dietary habits on fertility. Both the keto-genic diet and intermittent fasting (done under professional dietetic supervision), either apart or together, have provided a means for quicker and safer weight loss, especially if time is of the essence in older couples.
