Don't NORMALISE PCOS.
Seek help- WA 9631570443

Starting a new journey with a 15/F from the UAE with diagnosed Bilateral PCOS and Fasting Insulin - 9.4.

Her general food intake is calorie-dense but nutrient-defecient-- Significant processed foods like Pasta, outside/restaurant food, Nutella, bubble tea etc, loaded with sugar. 

Doctors told the girl and her parents that PCOS is common/normal at her age! She was gladly put on Metformin. No assessment of her lifestyle/dietary habits or the root cause of PCOS. Outrageous, to say the least! 

Good thing- parents disagreed and decided to approach me, instead, to seek help with their daughter's health condition.

My role as her coach now will be: 
1. To intervene through a comprehensive dietary protocol to resolve her Bilateral PCOS 
2. Coach her to make a decisive lifestyle change- which could be challenging given teenagers strong peer influence/pressure 
3. Empower her with the right nutrition knowledge, so that she never comes back to this place ever again in life

PCOS is rightly called "Diabetes of the Ovaries" and is often linked to insulin resistance. UPFs like sugary snacks, sodas and refined carbohydrates can worsen insulin resistance and make it harder to manage PCOS symptoms.

Will update progress.
