    152. Why You Should Stop Counting Calories For PCOS

    152. Why You Should Stop Counting Calories For PCOS

    Let's dive into one of the most frequently asked questions in the PCOS weight loss world: Should I count calories with PCOS?

    In this episode I'll share why traditional calorie-focused diets like Weight Watchers and Paleo often miss the mark for weight loss as well as the main reasons calorie restriction fails to produce significant results for most women with PCOS.

    Here's a sneak peek: Hormonal Balance vs. Calorie Counting: Learn why balancing hormones, particularly addressing insulin resistance, is crucial for PCOS management, far outweighing the importance of calorie numbers.

    Quality Over Quantity: Discover the significance of focusing on the quality of your food rather than its caloric content and numbers for long-term health and well-being.

    The Pitfalls of Calorie Restriction: Understand how restrictive diets can perpetuate a harmful diet mentality and feelings of deprivation, and what to do instead to have a healthier relationship with food.

    151. You Must Know This About PCOS Types

    151. You Must Know This About PCOS Types

    We're about to challenge the conventional wisdom surrounding PCOS types. PCOS is often categorized into different types based mostly on symptoms, but how important are these types for treating your PCOS??

    Today I am sharing 3 compelling reasons why PCOS types might not be as critical as you think.

    Here’s what you’ll discover:

    How focusing strictly on PCOS types can blindside you from managing PCOS long term.

    Why PCOS types, often determined by surface symptoms as opposed to PCOS root causes, don’t fully capture the complexity of this syndrome.

    How PCOS symptoms and types can evolve over time, which increases the need for a flexible treatment plan.

    The main takeaway? Understanding PCOS requires looking beyond types, focusing on comprehensive, personalized care strategies that address the root causes and unique needs of each individual.

    What You’ll Learn: Why an overemphasis on PCOS types might delay your journey to wellness.

    The importance of a root cause approach to managing PCOS, tailored to your unique health profile.

    Why some PCOS types are not real and how this can cause confusion for PCOS women.

    Join us as we debunk myths and shed light on what truly matters in managing PCOS. Whether you’re newly diagnosed or have been navigating PCOS for years, this video is a must-watch for anyone seeking to understand their condition more deeply and live a healthier, more balanced life.

    150. Is Keto Good For PCOS?

    150. Is Keto Good For PCOS?

    Ever wondered if keto is good for PCOS? Today I'm sharing my opinion on keto as a diet plan for women with PCOS.

    In this episode, I share the top 5 reasons why the Keto Diet is NOT good for PCOS in my opinion.

    5 Reasons Why Keto Diet is NOT good for PCOS:


    Keto isn't ideal for insulin resistance because of the saturated fats, making your body less metabolically efficient causing issues such as acne, weight gain, and missing periods.
    Can increase cortisol ultimately resulting in inflammation and negatively affects hormones. 
    Low on fiber, creating problems with eliminating healthy gut bacteria, causing bowel movement problems, creating higher estrogen levels, higher cortisol levels and increases risk for cancer.
    Can lead to thyroid problems and imbalance of thyroid hormones.
    Isn't sustainable long term - most important of all!

    What You’ll Learn in Today’s Episode:


    What the Keto Diet is.
    Why it may not work for you if you have PCOS.
    Modifications and alternatives you can make to have it work for you when you have PCOS.
    Understanding the 5 ways keto can negatively impact your PCOS.

    We are going to dive into the most effective strategies to manage insulin resistance while enjoying your favorite foods including bread, pasta and pizza! These range from timing your meals properly, moving after meals, adding more fat and fiber and other practical tips to help you manage PCOS successfully without dieting.
