Food Question
Which types of fruit and vegetables are best for us?
I like plain stuff, if i eat cauliflower, i just eat potatoes and cauliflower for example. I dont like making things that take hours to prepare.

Yeap a very goof resource!Dr. Axe website is so helpful, if you have any problems type Dr.Axe and what it is and he will have a soultion on there too 🙂
Olives, avacado, flax seeds, chia seeds,berries, all greens are probably some of the best for pcos 🙂
& i would say its really important to cut out dairy,wheat and unnatural sugar that is what helped me the most xx
A good resource for you since your English is impeccable: draxe.com. Really reliable & informative resource you can use to find out more about the foods @A myPCOSteam Member showed you, or about fiber, Omega-3s, antioxidants, etc. Dr. Axe is my go-to source for anything & everything food/herbs/fungus. Plus, he has a Judeo-Christian leaning so guaranteed everything you see on his site his wholesome, and he even includes sometimes tidbits about Biblical food history!
