Health benefits of Shrimp Un-Fried Rice

Sesame seeds help with progesterone balance. Lignans found in in sesame seeds help to prevent excess estrogen production. Brown rice is a natural source of Inositol, a derivative of Vitamin B (which is often prescribed in the form of supplements for women with PCOS). Inositol can effectively control the symptoms of PCOS by reducing insulin resistance and improving insulin sensitivity.
