Leave a comment!   In this episode What to do once you receive a diagnosis of PCOS The importance of monitoring your blood sugar in order to understand your hormonal health Why managing your diet and activity levels is integral to managing your hormonal health Some of the best therapeutic nutrients to consider to manage insulin sensitivity and PCOS including inositol, D-Pinitol, curcumin, chromium, and, in certain cases, berberine The most important food group to avoid if you have PCOS Why a healthy liver and microbiome is crucially important to healthy hormonal health   Quotes “You’re definitely going to be better off doing more balanced meals where you’re focusing on getting a whole bunch of vegetables, ideally two cups of vegetables per meal and your plate is mostly vegetables and then maybe a palm-sized serving of protein of any kind and a tablespoon or two of really healthy fat.” [25:06] “When a woman walks into my practice and has PCOS I want to get her hormones in balance and cycling and regulated as quickly as possible. Now that sounds very straightforward and easy. Just get the hormones to have a good feedback loop and cycle. But the thing is that this is a whole body multi-system issue, so that’s highly dependent on a couple of other really important body systems, namely our liver and detox system.” [37:19]   Links Find Brie Wieselman online Take Brie's Healthy Hormones Quiz here!
