How does following a low-glycemic diet help with managing PCOS?

Following a low-glycemic diet can help manage PCOS because it focuses on consuming foods that have a lower impact on blood sugar levels. This helps to regulate insulin levels, as PCOS is often associated with insulin resistance. By reducing insulin levels, it can help regulate hormone levels, improve menstrual regularity, and reduce symptoms such as weight gain and acne.
