153. Let's Talk About PCOS with Sam Abbott RD
Manage episode 424365389 series 2969132
This week we are talking to Sam Abbott, RD about PCOS! Many of our listeners have been diagnosed with PCOS (polycystic ovarian sydrome) and medical recommendations to manage symptoms are usually geared towards weight loss and food restrictions. How does someone with PCOS balance this condition within a nondiet value system? We'll look at:
- What exactly is PCOS?
- What can be mistaken for PCOS?
- How does PCOS get diagnosed?
- Is eating low-carb important for symptom management?
- Can intermittent fasting help?
- What non-food related strategies can help?
- Mental health, sleep, fatigue, community support, and more!
