Good evening, fans of health.

I have been so busy I haven't been on here much, but I've thought about ya'll. I have a question for Miss Pretty Much Knows Everything - Mary. Now, while I will go cheek to cheek with you in a photo contest one day, you're ahead of me in your pcos knowledge.

One of my Isagenix customers was just diagnosed with PCOS. She's a young thing; same age as my daughter (22). This young woman is a singer, song writer, and artist. She's now very much afraid and worried, and has asked to meet with me tomorrow to design her custom eating plan.

I am, after much online research, going to go with what has worked for those on our system who have had (and overcome) blood glucose challenges. I am also going to recommend to her that she take our Omega supplements, and the liquid "rocket fuel" that is an adaptagenic herbal/B vitamin tonic. From what I've read, much natural success has been achieved with the low glycemic, extra omegas, and B vitamin therapy. I am not a believer in the high animal fat/protein method of girth control, although I realize this has worked for some. I want this young lady to stay alkaline, and very clean.

What are your thoughts on this, Miss Mary? I'm meeting her tomorrow at 11am, so I understand I'm asking this really late. My personal email is [email protected]  or [email protected] (same inbox)

In other news, our little Sam has been enjoying his first IsaLean shakes! He's a bit over 3 months old, and G'ma is giving him 1 1/2 - 2 tablespoons of the vanilla IsaLean shake twice a day. He starts smacking his lips when he sees me mixing it in the custard di****'s SO cute! Little IsaBaby. He actually eats this off a spoon, and sucks it down like it's pure heaven. Gotta love it. I think I have a photo - I'll put it up when I get a sec.

Thanks to anyone who has advice on the PCOS nutrition.

*using my best Southern accent*  Why thank ya ma'am for sayin' such lovely thangs about me.

Ha, I really don't know that much, it's just that "here", I know a lot about what's talked about on this board...been there, done that!

Sounds like a great plan you have going there for her diet.  The majority, but not all of PCOS sufferers, are insulin resistant, especially the ones who are overweight.  And since you advocate eating as close to nature as possible, she should do very well without simple carbs and processed foods.  The key to controlling PCOS is a combination of diet and exercise.  I don't know how big she is, or if she is capable of working out, but her starting exercise anywhere is good as long as she is working on both aspects together. 

Do you know how long it has been since her last period or if she is having serious weight gain issues?  Is she having fertility problems?  All of us soulcysters are not the same, so the questions are important for treatment.  I'd be interested to here what her particular symptoms are.  You can also send her to www.soulcysters.com for a lot of information. 

Let me know if you have anymore questions,

Mary
