Health and fertility benefits of Gingery Chicken & Spinach Stir-Fry

Fresh spinach is an excellent source of vitamin K, vitamin A, vitamin C, and vitamin B6, all of which have significant roles in reducing inflammation in the body, all of which help in the case of infertility. Brown rice is a natural source of Inositol, a derivative of Vitamin B (which is often prescribed in the form of supplements for women with PCOS). Inositol can effectively control the symptoms of PCOS by reducing insulin resistance and improving insulin sensitivity. Miso is extremely nutrient-dense and believed to alkalinize the body and stop the effects of carcinogens in the system.
