Has anyone read anything about the low GI diet and PCOS? Tried it? Any tips, did it work, etc.? Also, can anyone explain in ENGLISH (not crazy medical terms, lol) how the low GI helps us with PCOS? TIA!

I read your post and did a little research. I'm new to PCOS and I hadn't heard of a GI Diet. but I found this website

http://www.annecollins.com/low-glycemic-index-diet.htm

It says, a GI Diet "reduces cravings and leads to better blood-sugar control". the website gives sample menus and explains what it is. I'm assuming cause with PCOS we have a harder time regulating our sugar that this diet is designed to help regulate it.

As I said I'm newly diagnosed to PCOS so some of the veterans might have better or more experience and knowledge regarding this. Good luck.
