Limit processed foods.<\/li>\n<li>Eat meals at times when you are most active so your body has the energy to burn off excess blood sugar.<\/li>\n<li>Aim for at least 25 grams of fiber daily from whole grains, fruits, and vegetables.<\/li>\n<li>Choose protein-rich foods like fish, eggs, dairy, beans, pulses, and tofu.<\/li>\n<li>Include moderate amounts of healthy fats like olive oil, nuts, seeds, and avocados.<\/li>\n<li>Include fish or plant-based options like flaxseeds, chia, and walnuts, containing omega-3 fatty acids.<\/li>\n<li>Avoid sugary and alcoholic drinks.<\/li>\n<li>Incorporate anti-oxidant-rich foods.<\/li>\n<li>Limit sodium intake.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Exercise: A key component of PCOS and heart health<\/h3>\n<p>Women with PCOS experience higher rates of insulin resistance compared to women who don\u2019t have the condition. Insulin resistance affects your body\u2019s ability to use blood sugar for energy. <a href=\"https:\/\/protect.checkpoint.com\/v2\/r05\/___https:\/\/www.niddk.nih.gov\/health-information\/diabetes\/overview\/what-is-diabetes\/prediabetes-insulin-resistance%23insulinresistance___.YXBzMTphZGl0eWFiaXJsYWNhcGl0YWw6YzpvOmM3MDg1ODY1ZGQ3NjY4OTc3OTk0OTJhYjc2MjIzODgwOjc6MWM1NDo2NmJmMjg4NzhlODE5ZjlkNGUxN2FkNjE5OGZhNmVmMTc4YzFlYWJjOWZjOWU3ZGRlZWE3MjhjNDQwYTBmNTA3OnA6VDpO\"><b>Doctors have connected<\/b><\/a> a lack of physical activity and excess body weight as potential contributing factors to insulin resistance. Here are some exercise types to consider:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Steady-state cardiovascular workouts: Aerobic exercises in this category include walking, riding a bicycle, dancing, etc.<\/li>\n<li>HIIT workouts: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adityabirlacapital.com\/healthinsurance\/active-together\/2016\/12\/20\/6-benefits-of-high-intensity-interval-training-hiit\/\"><strong>High-intensity interval training (HIIT)<\/strong><\/a> involves balancing intense exercise bursts with rest intervals.<\/li>\n<li>Mind-body exercises: Yoga or pilates can burn calories and reduce stress.<\/li>\n<li>Strength training: It uses resistance bands, weights, or your body weight to build muscle.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Managing stress: A vital aspect of PCOS and heart health<\/h3>\n<p>Increased levels of androgens are a common hormonal imbalance associated with PCOS. The ovarian production of androgens is mostly stimulated by excess insulin, however, the adrenal glands produce a significant amount of androgens too. When the adrenal glands are activated due to stress, they contribute to the increased levels of androgens in the body. Thus, high levels of stress can make your PCOS symptoms worse, putting you at a higher risk for chronic health conditions like prediabetes, diabetes, and even cancer. Mind-body practises like yoga, tai chi, and mindful meditation are effective stress busters. Other ways are working out, sleeping well, practising hobbies like reading, writing, and painting. They can help lower stress, blood pressure, and blood glucose levels.<\/p>\n<h2><strong id=\"The-role-of-healthcare-professionals-in-PCOS-and-heart-health\">The role of healthcare professionals\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-73327 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.adityabirlacapital.com\/healthinsurance\/active-together\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/PCOS-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 800px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 800\/533;\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Healthcare professionals can play a vital role in managing PCOS and heart health, as women with PCOS are at an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. They can:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Diagnose PCOS by listening to your menstrual history, examining physical symptoms, measuring hormone levels, and imaging the ovaries and uterus.<\/li>\n<li>Educate you about the connection between PCOS and heart health, and the importance of proactive management.<\/li>\n<li>Screen you for PCOS and CVD and can manage your PCOS symptoms while reducing cardiometabolic risk.<\/li>\n<li>Help women with PCOS start and maintain a healthy lifestyle, and connect them with support groups.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If cardiovascular risk factors are present, cardiologists assess heart health, manage conditions like high blood pressure and dyslipidemia, and provide guidance on reducing cardiovascular risk<\/p>\n<p>An interdisciplinary team of healthcare professionals, including gynecologists, endocrinologists, cardiologists, dietitians, and mental health professionals, work together to address the hormonal and cardiovascular aspects of PCOS. This ensures comprehensive care that tackles the root causes of both conditions.<\/p>\n<p>The link between PCOS and heart health is significant. Addressing both conditions requires lifestyle modifications, as mentioned. Proactive management and awareness are key to improving overall outcomes for heart health in PCOS.<\/p>\n<div class=\"key-takeaway__content-wrap\">\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3 class=\"key-takeaway__sub-heading\">Key Takeaways<\/h3>\n<div class=\"key-takeaway__content\">\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) may be at double the risk for heart attacks and strokes.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To promote cardiovascular health, it is important to maintain a healthy weight, quit smoking, and have regular check-ups.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Healthcare professionals can diagnose PCOS by reviewing your menstrual history, examining physical symptoms, and using imaging techniques to assess the ovaries and uterus.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stay tuned to the Activ Living Community.
