Are cookies good for PCOS?

Cookies are refined flour plus sugar, about as fast as carbs get. If you want one, have it after a meal rather than on an empty stomach, or swap for dark chocolate with nuts.

Watch out for

  • High in refined flour and added sugars
  • Low in protein and dietary fiber

Easy swaps

  • Cookies on an empty stomach→Pairing one cookie with Greek yogurt or a handful of nuts

    Protein and healthy fats help slow down glucose absorption.

    Having dessert after fiber and protein keeps blood sugar much steadier.
