Yes, high protein is a considered one of the best diet for managing PCOS. Protein is incredible for stabilizing blood sugar because it doesn't cause the sharp insulin spikes that carbohydrates do. It also helps preserve muscle mass and keeps you feeling full for much longer, which naturally prevents overeating. Aiming for a significant amount of protein like 25 to 30 grams at every meal can really help turn down the volume on those intense PCOS sugar cravings. Whether you get your protein from lean meats, eggs, or plant sources like beans and tofu, making it the centerpiece of your plate is a very smart move for your hormones.
