Foods to Avoid and Choose in PCOS

PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) typically causes a rise in insulin in the blood. Insulin helps control blood glucose levels by signaling the liver and muscle and fat cells to take in glucose from the blood. An increase in insulin levels do not remove glucose from the blood, the body will store it in the tissues as fat. Eating more calories than the body needs will lead to excess glucose levels. Therefore approaching PCOS nutritionally is very important in managing it. With the right diet and exercise, one can combat the condition successfully. Here is a list of food to take and avoid when having this syndrome.
