96: Intuitive eating with PCOS? Do I cut dairy, gluten and carbs?

No Wellness Wankery

Today we have Sam Abbott on the podcast, a PCOS Nutritionist who has built a reputation for her fresh, non-diet approach to nutrition. This episode is a goldmine of information for anyone struggling with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), a hormonal disorder that affects a significant number of women globally. Together, we unravel the mystery surrounding this condition as Sam walks us through the symptoms, diagnosis, and the importance of focusing on health metrics beyond the number on the scales. We shed light on the research around weight and PCOS, and reveal some surprising findings.
In the second half of this chat, we dissect the relationship between PCOS, gluten, and dairy. It's a deep dive into understanding your body's unique requirements and the downsides of skipping meals or avoiding snacks. Sam shares her most effective tips for embracing intuitive eating and reducing dietary restrictions without jeopardising your health. We also answer some listener questions about balancing intuitive eating with PCOS, and myths surrounding food restrictions - specifically carbohydrates. This conversation is filled with valuable insights on PCOS management, mental health, and body autonomy.
