Anti-diet lifestyle approaches to PCOS with Dr Nitu Bajekal

Show notes here. 

In this week's episode we talk about PCOS to Dr Nitu Bajekal, a consultant gynaecological surgeon with over 35 years' experience in the field of obstetrics and gynaecology. Typically people with PCOS are told to restrict their food and carbohydrate intake and lose weight as a first-line management. We go beyond that, exploring what PCOS is, less commonly known manifestations (such as depression, anxiety, eating disorders), how the right foods can address metabolic and hormonal imbalances as well as the role of soya in people's health. 

PCOS stands for polycystic ovary syndrome, and there is plenty of evidence in favour for a balanced whole food plant-based dietary ('vegan') pattern. Find all references and an article in the show notes on lindadoes.com/widlims13.
