Product Description

PCOSPolycystic Ovarian Syndromeis the most common hormonal disorder among women of child-bearing age, affecting approximately 6 to 10 percent of premenopausal women. No two women have the same symptoms, making it a difficult condition to diagnose. In addition, many women don't know they have it until they try to become pregnant. This breakthrough book contains the latest research that reveals how eating a healthy diet in conjunction with a basic exercise plan is a win-win situation for women with PCOS. The book includes a complete, up-to-date table of GI and glycemic load values for more than eight hundred foods and beverages, provides a clear, concise diet and lifestyle plan, and thirty recipes.

Low GI Guide for PCOS 28 Mar 2011

By B.R.Eadie

Format:Paperback

Although written by professionals, this book is written in an easy, user-friendly style. It provides practical guidelines regarding the management of all the major aspects of PCOS and includes tasty PCOS-healthy recipes. All in all, I found this book to be very useful and practically applicable.

recommended 10 Nov 2004

By A Customer

Format:Paperback

This book is a must for those with PCOS because it explains the cause of the hormonal imbalances that occur in this condition and how to deal with it long term through the low glycemic index way of eating.

Practical, but outdated? 7 May 2005

By Concerned

Format:Paperback

One of the more recent offerings from the Glucose Revolution, highly informative, if a little speculative, as to why the overproduction of insulin could have a detrimental effect on sex hormones and ultimately health.

The problem I have with GI is that it can be lowered by eating fatty foods, and so forth, but still be potentially harmful (i.e. slow energy release does not ensure controlled insulin release).

When are we going to see the Insulin Index in print?

TAKE THIS BOOK SERIOUSLY!

I know via various studies that insulin stimulates androgen synthesis in ovaries via the cognale receptor and inositolglycan pathways(Nestlaer et al. 1998). Read more
