Yes, sourdough bread good for PCOS diet. The fermentation process used to make sourdough actually lowers its glycemic index, meaning it doesn’t spike your blood sugar as fast as regular white or even some whole wheat breads. It also breaks down some of the gluten and phytic acid, making it much easier on your digestion. It’s still a carbohydrate, so the "pairing rule" still applies: try to eat it with some healthy fats or protein, like avocado and an egg, rather than just plain with jam. It is a much more hormone-friendly way to enjoy a sandwich or a piece of morning toast without the energy crash.
