In this solo episode of PCOS, Debunked, Alex Okell RNutr tackles one of the biggest myths in PCOS nutrition - that you need to cut out carbohydrates to manage your symptoms.
Alex breaks down why this misconception is so widespread, explains the essential role carbohydrates play in energy, hormone regulation, and overall wellbeing, and explores what the research actually says about low-carb and ketogenic diets in PCOS.
Listeners will learn practical, evidence-based strategies to support insulin sensitivity and blood sugar balance - without restriction or fear of carbs.
New episodes of PCOS, Debunked are released weekly, offering clear, science-backed guidance on PCOS nutrition, fertility, and hormone health.
