Carbohydrates provide the nutrients
needed to reduce insulin and glucose such as
magnesium and zinc, which women with PCOS
tend to be deficient in.
Granted, I gained 10 pounds, but the amount of things that I fear were going on that I was not seeing (e.g. — electrolytes
tend to get urinated away when you are having thyroid issues, which is, I believe, why so many Paleo folks end up
needing to supplement with
magnesium for muscle cramping).
