Why this Derby Mint Julep works for PCOS
Liquid calories deserve extra attention with PCOS because they pass through the stomach faster than solid food, producing sharper insulin responses. If a drink contains sugar, sweetener, or fruit, pairing it with a protein-rich snack helps blunt the response.
