Hi Nibedita,

Following a diet will help you to lose weight. So include food which helps to control hormonal imbalance and reduce the symptoms of PCOS, for which you should include following :

Green leafy vegetables - These are rich in iron, calcium, potassium, magnesium and vitamins K, C, E and B. Vitamin B in particular is very useful if you suffer from PCOS. They help improve the function of your thyroid, the fat metabolism, better hormone balance.

Colored vegetables - have mixture of all colored veggies so that the antioxidants in it helps you to fight PCOS stress.

Fruits - Not all fruits are helpful in case of PCOS ,so have the ones with a low glycemic index like kiwifruit, limes, strawberries, cantaloupe, guava, pear, oranges, watermelons apples and apricot.

Healthy Fats - It is a myth that PCOS and fats don&rsquo;t go hand in hand. You need to eat healthy fats that provide essential fatty acids. This includes seeds, olive oil, oily fish, avocado and nuts. They also provide vitamin D and B that are very important to cure symptoms of PCOS.

Organic Meat - Protein spike metabolism which can help control your weight to quite an extent hence consume lean meat.

Hope this helps you !!!!
