Why this Bone Broth for PCOS Recipe - Thyme and Rosemary Lamb Broth works for PCOS

This Bone Broth for PCOS Recipe - Thyme and Rosemary Lamb Broth delivers 20g of protein per serving, which sits in the moderate range for a PCOS-friendly meal. If you find yourself hungry within 2-3 hours, pair this dish with an additional protein source (Greek yogurt, a boiled egg, or a small portion of fish) to push the meal closer to the 25-35g per-meal target most PCOS dietitians recommend.

At 10g of carbohydrates per serving, this Bone Broth for PCOS Recipe - Thyme and Rosemary Lamb Broth is on the lower-carb end, which suits women with PCOS who have confirmed insulin resistance or who notice strong post-meal energy crashes. Pair lower-carb meals like this with a generous portion of non-starchy vegetables to keep fibre intake up.

Evening meals affect overnight insulin and morning blood sugar more than most women realise. Keeping dinner protein-forward and finishing eating at least 2-3 hours before bed gives your body time to clear glucose before the overnight fast, which improves morning fasting insulin readings.
