Examples include oats, quinoa, sweet potatoes, and most fruits. **Protein-Rich Snacks:** - Opt for protein-rich snacks between meals to help maintain stable blood sugar levels and control hunger. ** Healthy Fats:** - Include sources of healthy fats in your diet, such as avocados, nuts, seeds, olive oil, and fatty fish. **Regular Meals and Snacks:** - Eat regular meals and snacks throughout the day to prevent fluctuations in blood sugar levels and keep energy levels stable. ** Portion Control:** - Pay attention to portion sizes to avoid overeating and promote weight management. **Limit Added Sugars and Processed Foods:** - Minimize intake of added sugars, sugary beverages, and processed foods, as they can exacerbate insulin resistance and contribute to weight gain. **Meal Timing:** - Consider spacing out meals and snacks evenly throughout the day to support stable blood sugar levels and hormone regulation. **Hydration:** - Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day. **Supplements:** - Consult with a healthcare professional to determine if specific supplements such as inositol, vitamin D, or omega-3 fatty acids may be beneficial for managing PCOS symptoms. **Exercise:** - Incorporate regular physical activity into your routine, as it can help improve insulin sensitivity, support weight management, and reduce stress.
