4 nutrients to ease PCOS symptoms

Today, let's shine a light on Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS), a hormonal condition that silently impacts up to 10% of women in their reproductive years. Shockingly, nearly 70% of these women go undiagnosed, making it crucial for us to learn more about PCOS, the signs and symptoms and how you can support yourself.

Understanding PCOS

At the heart of PCOS lies impaired ovulation, sending ripples of hormonal imbalance through the body. And who's often leading the charge? Testosterone – the not-so-friendly excess androgen that brings along unwanted symptoms such as hair loss, weight gain, irregular cycles, infertility and acne. It's a silent battle, but one that we're here to support you with.


Elevated testosterone is at the centre of PCOS. High levels of this hormone circulating in the body result in a range of challenging symptoms. From the frustration of hair loss to the struggle with weight gain and the persistent presence of acne, PCOS is more than just a hormonal hiccup; it's a multifaceted condition that thankfully we know how to support.


Here are 4 science backed nutrients shown to support PCOS:


Zinc: 

Zinc is a key nutrient when it comes to PCOS, working diligently to reduce acne and promote regular ovulation. Zinc works to reduce testosterone levels. It works by inhibiting 5α-reductase and thus decreasing the production of dihydrotestosterone (DHT). It’s also anti-inflammatory and supports overall hormonal balance. Our blend contains zinc in the form of bisglycinate which is highly absorbable.




Inositol: 

Meet Inositol, the hero in balancing blood sugars, taming PCOS cravings, and promoting regular ovulation (= regular periods!!) Inositol has also been researched for its ability to support mood, sleep and overall well-being. It's a vital player in our PMS & hormone Balance blend, with 2g per serving!

Magnesium:

What’s not to love about magnesium? It’s a powerhouse for our overall health but when it comes to PCOS is a non-negotiable! Magnesium steps onto the stage to reduce inflammation, curb cravings, and alleviate PMS symptoms. It's your calming bestie, supporting a deep and restorative sleep. Our blend contains bio-active sources of magnesium that are gentle on the stomach.


Vitamin D:

Lastly, Vitamin D takes its place, supporting mood and hormonal balance. Research shows that women with PCOS are at a higher risk of vitamin D deficiency, putting even more emphasis on its need. Many women with PCOS report experiencing low moods, and Vitamin D is here to lift the clouds, offering a ray of sunshine to brighten your emotional well-being. Each serving of our blend contains 2000IU of vitamin D, to support your all year round!
