Start your day with 1 soaked fig, 4 almonds, and 1 walnut â they balance hormones and give healthy fats.
After that, drink a glass of warm water with lemon or cinnamon water â it helps reduce insulin resistance.
Breakfast should be protein-rich â have moong chilla, besan cheela, vegetable dalia, or oats with milk and nuts. Add some seeds like flax or chia for hormone balance.
Mid-morning, eat a fruit like apple, pear, or papaya â avoid banana, mango, and grapes regularly due to
sugar.
Lunch should include 2 multigrain rotis, 1 katori brown rice or millet, 1 katori dal or rajma/chole, 1 sabzi, and a bowl of salad (carrot, cucumber, beetroot).
Include paneer, tofu, or soya chunks in your lunch or dinner 3-4 times a week â they give plant-based protein.
Curd or buttermilk with lunch helps improve digestion and gut health â important for PCOS.
In the evening, avoid biscuits or fried snacks. Have roasted chana, murmura with veggies, or a boiled egg/tofu cubes. You can also have green tea or spearmint tea.
Dinner should be light â 1-2 roti or millet khichdi with sabzi and soup or dal. Keep it oil-free and low in carbs.
Post-dinner, have a pinch of haldi with warm water or milk â it lowers inflammation.
Exercise 5 days a week â brisk walk, yoga, or strength training helps regulate periods and weight.
Sleep 7-8 hours daily, reduce stress â both play a big role in managing PCOS.
