Eric BergHost
They also say when you look this up in Wikipedia, insulin resistance, all because of high androgens, okay? Now, normally women should have some androgens, but it shouldn't be excessive there's usually lower amounts of androgens and higher amounts of estrogen now the reason you're probably watching this is because you have facial hair and you're trying to solve this problem but it's incredibly confusing and i'm going to tell you why it's incredibly confusing and what to do about it now if you research facial hair you're going to stumble on this pcos thing and then you're probably going to want to look at some really credible scientifically based evidence on this topic so you can do your research so of course you'd go to wikipedia which i'm being extremely sarcastic because this is like random.com who's really censoring information who's allowing certain information and not allowing certain information so it's a crapshoot on wikipedia especially if you're looking at medical information.
That's probably true that it's causing something, but not necessarily high androgens.
Those plastics and chemicals are endocrine disruptors, but they're mainly going to increase estrogen.
And if you increase estrogen, you're going to lower androgen so you might even make it a little bit better and change the ratios but probably not but they will go on to say there's no cure okay but you can also in the meantime take birth control pills so again why would that work well you're increasing the ratios of estrogen and hopefully bringing down androgens also metformin why would that work well it's going to help reduce insulin by making insulin more sensitive because it targets insulin resistance, but it has side effects because it is a medication.
So foods that are low on the glycemic index, which makes total sense because obviously there's insulin resistance involved right but of course the foods that they recommend will confuse you fruit so why would eating fruits help you lower insulin it doesn't it raises insulin because they are sweet okay they recommend vegetables and whole grains I hope someday someone will let me know why eating whole grains are good for facial hair or PCOS or lowering insulin.
I'd like to know because this turns into carbohydrates very quickly and it's going to raise insulin, okay? But of course, everything you're looking at now, they always have to recommend whole grains, okay? now with pcos there also is an association with hyperinsulinemia that's high insulin in your bloodstream okay so let's go over to wikipedia and see what they say about hyperinsulinemia okay they say the cause comes from either a neoplasm which is cancer pancreatic cancer trans fats PCOS, which is very confusing.
And then they recommend carb malabsorption, whatever the heck that means, okay? You're malabsorbing your carbohydrates.
And again, they add the whole grains as your diet, whole grains, beans, and definitely soy.
So at this point in your research, you're going to be utterly completely confused simply because you are doing your evaluation from a bad source from the wrong source.
