I've just edited this with the NEW and improved recipe!

I think these should now be re-titled PCOS BLASTER MUFFINS.
They contain both farinetta and soy lecithin, super-high in d-chiro-inositol (and the lecithin makes the muffins light and fluffy, what a bonus!), as well as lots of cinnamon, also rumored to help regulate insulin levels, and flaxmeal, high in EFAs which are also supposed to help regulate hormone levels, among other benefits.

Oh, and I think they taste really good! I eat them warm with a little butter.

TWO muffins contain:

50g farinetta, 9.75g lecithin
890mg d-chiro-inositol (685 from farinetta; 205 from lecithin)
35g carbs (18 from farinetta; 4 from blueberries, 13 from bananas) - this doesn't include non-digestible fiber carbs
8.3g fiber from farinetta (more from flaxmeal; haven't calculated)
18.5g protein from farinetta
