Health benefits of Lemon Grilled Salmon Recipe

Salmon is an excellent source of omega-3 fatty acids, which are crucial for reducing inflammation and promoting cardiovascular health. It is also rich in vitamin D, which helps regulate insulin levels and improve mood, both of which are important for managing PCOS symptoms. Additionally, salmon provides a good amount of B vitamins, particularly B12, which supports energy production and helps maintain healthy nerve function. Including salmon in your diet can help balance hormones, reduce inflammation, and support overall well-being. Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to. Lemons are also rich in vitamin C, flavonoids, and other antioxidants. They can potentially support the immune system and have other health benefits. Lemons also have a low glycemic index, so they should not cause a rapid rise in blood sugar when consumed in natural form.

2 teaspoons snipped fresh dill or 3/4 teaspoon dill weed
1/2 teaspoon lemon-pepper seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt, optional
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 salmon fillet (1-1/2 pounds)
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons chicken broth
3 tablespoons canola oil
3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
3 tablespoons finely chopped green onions
1 small lemon, thinly sliced
