Health and fertility benefits of Miso Marinated Ribs with Soy Smashed Potatoes and Green Bean Salad

Lemons can help to prevent oxidative damage to the body, which women with PCOS are often susceptible to. One tbsp of honey has a glycemic index (GI) of 55. Nuts are 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.
