If You Have PCOS and Want Protein Pancakes Stick to This
Protein pancakes can be a perfect breakfast option for women with PCOS
Make this recipe the same week you make the Spinach Pesto Halibut since it uses a lot of the same ingredients. This nutrition-packed side dish would go great with fish, chicken or pork.
This recipe includes superfoods such as:
Spinach is a nutrient-dense leafy green vegetable that is rich in vitamins A, C, and K, as well as iron, magnesium, and antioxidants. The high iron content in spinach helps combat anemia, which is common in women with PCOS. Magnesium helps reduce inflammation and improve insulin sensitivity. The antioxidants in spinach can help lower oxidative stress, which is beneficial for managing PCOS symptoms. Including spinach in your diet can support overall health and well-being. Nuts are 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.
