Do you have polycystic ovary syndrome? Here’s what kind of diet you should stick to.

Polycystic ovary syndrome is a condition that causes hormonal imbalances and metabolic problems.

Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can also lead to other serious health problems, such as diabetes, cardiovascular problems, depression, and an increased risk of endometrial cancer.

It has been proven that diet and supplementation can help reduce the impact of PCOS and almost reverse it.

There are two ways diet affects PCOS: weight management and production and insulin resistance. Many women with polycystic ovary syndrome have insulin resistance.

Three diets can help people with PCOS to manage their symptoms:

* Low glycemic index (GI) diet: The body digests low GI foods more slowly, which means they do not cause insulin levels to rise as much or as fast as other foods, such as some carbohydrates. These are whole grains, legumes, nuts, seeds, fruits and other unprocessed, low-carbohydrate foods

* Anti-inflammatory diet: berries, fatty fish, leafy green vegetables and extra virgin olive oil can reduce symptoms associated with inflammation, such as fatigue

* DASH diet: can help manage PCOS symptoms. The DASH diet is rich in fish, poultry, fruits, vegetables, whole grains and low-fat dairy products.

A healthy PCOS diet may also include the following foods:

• natural, unprocessed food

• foods rich in fiber

• oily fish, including salmon, tuna, sardines and mackerel

• kale, spinach and other dark leafy greens

• red fruits, such as red grapes, blueberries, blackberries and cherries

• broccoli and cauliflower

• beans, lentils and other legumes

• healthy fats, such as olive oil, avocado and coconut

• nuts, including almonds, walnuts, almonds and pistachios

• dark chocolate in moderation

• spices, such as turmeric and cinnamon
