Don’t Let Your PCOS Drive You Nuts… Eat Nuts Instead!

Nuts have long been encouraged as a part of a healthy, well-balanced diet. If you have Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) then you understand what it means to be wary of incorporating a new food into your diet when you are unsure of how your body will react. The right diet is such a key aspect of maintaining and reversing your Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) that it is only natural that you pay close attention to not only the kinds of foods you eat, but to choosing the foods that will best work with your body.

How Can Nuts Help?

Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is often caused by a larger underlying illness: Insulin Resistance (IR). In women with these conditions, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fatty acids have actually been shown to benefit their health. A recent study, conducted by S. Kalgaonkar, R.U. Almario, D. Gurusinghe, E.M. Garamendi, W. Buchan, K. Kim, and S.E. Karakas, tracked the levels of monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats in women who have PCOS and consumed either walnuts or almonds for a period of six weeks.

The results of this study show that both almonds and walnuts provided an improvement in the health of the women involved in the study. In fact, these nuts were beneficial for levels of both plasma lipids and androgens.

Should You Eat Walnuts or Almonds?

This question is, for all intents and purposes, left up to your own taste. Christina Espinoza, who was a participant in a study that researched the effects of walnuts on PCOS, claims that they have drastically helped her recover her health. In an article published by UC Davis, Espinoza commented: “I started to have regular periods all on my own.” Women who are undergoing the same horrendous disease understand what a huge milestone this is.

Thanks to these studies and the current research that has been provided by medical professionals, it is safe to say that women who have PCOS should certainly incorporate nuts into their diet. Whether or not they want to eat walnuts or almonds is, as of current research findings, a question of their own preference.

The other thing a women suffering Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) might do is to look into the Insulite Health 5-Element System that is available. In particular, the PCOS System offers hormone-balancing effects that have been scientifically calibrated to reverse the condition. That means there is very much hope here, and, for women who properly educate themselves and take the precautions necessary to thwart the effects of the disease, no reason why PCOS has to be interpreted as a devastating diagnosis.
