This diet supports to balance hormones naturally, reduce inflammation and reduce hunger throughout the day.
However, when it comes to a diet for PCOS, the best one is always going to be the one that works with your body.
There are some people who eat completely vegan and will see weight loss while others might need more protein or carbs in their diet for better energy levels - there is no 100% right answer here!
It's about finding out what works for your body and what you are happy with. However, following the evidence of a high protein, high fat diet should hold you in good stead.

Hi Lianne,
Yes, sweet potato is a fantastic alternative to white potato.

Would sweet potato be a good swap out for regular potato? My husband and I are both tying to improve our health, I like the idea of simple changes that we can maintain
Hi Jenny,
Yes, brown rice is perfectly okay to have. Brown rice is considered a complex carbohydrate, which means that not only is it full of nutrients and fibre, it won’t cause your blood sugar or insulin levels to spike like white rice would.

You mention that brown rice pasta is ok to have – is actual brown rice good too? I eat a lot of veggie curries and stew, usually with white rice so would swapping that out for brown rice be a better option?
