How Diet Therapy Can Help
Diet therapy aims to regulate insulin levels, control weight, and improve hormonal imbalances, thus offering relief from PCOS/PCOD symptoms. Dt. Bhushan Khedkar specializes in creating personalized diet plans that cater to the specific needs of women suffering from PCOS. A tailored diet can help with:
- Reducing Insulin Resistance: A diet rich in fiber, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats can reduce insulin resistance, which is a common issue in PCOS patients.
- Promoting Healthy Weight Loss: A balanced diet combined with portion control can help in reducing excess weight, which, in turn, helps with managing hormonal imbalances and improving fertility.
- Managing Blood Sugar Levels: Consuming foods with a low glycemic index helps to stabilize blood sugar levels, thus reducing the risk of developing Type 2 diabetes, which is common among women with PCOS.
- Improving Hormonal Balance: Certain foods can regulate the production of hormones, helping to address the symptoms of PCOD/PCOS like irregular periods, acne, and excessive hair growth.
- Regulating Menstrual Cycles – Nutrient-dense foods help support regular ovulation and menstruation, improving fertility outcomes.
- Improving Skin Health – Reducing inflammation through diet can help manage skin-related issues like acne and hirsutism.
