She has also got another book out called The PCOS Diet Book(How you can use a nutritional approach to deal with Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) which also has a lot of good and positive reviews.
Has any one read these?  |
I've just purchased, about two weeks ago, the PCOS Diet Book. It was a real eye opener! I've known I've had PCOS for about 8 years now, but the only thing Dr's ever suggested was the Pill. And my body doesn't LIKE being on the Pill, the only thing it did is regulate my periods...but nothing else changed. I live in England now, but am from Michigan. Since living here I've had severe pain during sex, horrible period pains, moodiness, sleep problems and fainting/passing out. I'd been to specialists about the fainting, as it was happening in public, at work or when I was home alone. I told each and every Dr. about my PCOS....yet it was always tossed out as a reason for my fainting/pasing out. However....after reading The PCOS Diet Book, I've discovered that FAINTING is one of the possible symptoms. Hmmmm. I've beeng TRYING to follow the diet, but as I said I've only had the book just under two weeks. At this point, pretty much the only difference I see is the amount of times I use the loo! lol!
I like this book. It isn't just focusing on diet, and it explains what is going on inside your body as best as it can, and in a way I can totaly understand.
