Why this PCOS Dessert Ideas - Peach and Almond Crumble works for PCOS

At 18g of carbohydrates per serving, this PCOS Dessert Ideas - Peach and Almond Crumble is on the lower-carb end, which suits women with PCOS who have confirmed insulin resistance or who notice strong post-meal energy crashes.

Eating sweet foods immediately after a balanced meal (rather than on an empty stomach) blunts the blood sugar response, since protein and fat slow gastric emptying.
