Living PCOS Free by Nitu Bakekal,Rhohini Bajekal Pdf

When faced with her own premature menopause, Dr. Nitu Bajekal, the "plant-based gynae," learned that the Western medicine in which she had trained and practiced had too long ignored the real impact of nutrition and lifestyle on both health and disease. To allow women to achieve their full health potential, lifestyle medicine and conventional medicine can complement each other, offering an appropriate blend of solutions for the individual patient. Based on her research, 35 years' clinical practice, and her personal experience of a plant-based diet--with input from nutritionist and former PCOS sufferer Rohini Bajekal--she offers this practical lifestyle guide to recovery from polycystic ovarian syndrome. Dr. Bajekal shows how this endocrine condition can be managed via the six pillars of lifestyle medicine, with interventions of Western medicine available as adjuncts as needed. The book features a 21-day lifestyle plan for hormonal health together with tried-and-tested plant-based recipes by the authors and illuminating case histories.

A Balanced Approach to PCOS by Melissa Groves Pdf

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.

PCOS for Beginners by Tara Spencer Pdf

"Take power over your future by becoming an advocate for your health! In the PCOS Diet for the Newly Diagnosed, Tara Spencer helps women with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) do just that."--Megan Stewart, Founder and Executive Director of the PCOS Awareness Association Though the exact causes of PCOS are unknown, research suggests that insulin resistance and low-grade inflammation worsen its symptoms. And while the women who live with PCOS are more than familiar with its symptoms, most are unaware that following an insulin resistant diet can offer significant relief--especially those who have just received a PCOS diagnosis. For Tara Spencer, being diagnosed with PCOS was devastating. The thought of struggling with weight, appearance, and fertility issues (the most common PCOS symptoms) for the rest of her life scared her. Unwilling to rely on artificial hormones and medication, she took matters into her own hands and began looking for natural ways to manage her PCOS. Tara found that changing her diet and exercise was the key to overcoming insulin resistance and eliminating her PCOS symptoms naturally. Now a nutritionist specializing in PCOS, Tara's written the PCOS Diet for the Newly Diagnosed so that other women who have just learned they have PCOS can find the same relief and peace of mind early on.
