This hearty lentil soup is packed with essential nutrients for women with PCOS. Lentils are a great source of plant-based protein, fiber, and complex carbohydrates, which can help regulate blood sugar levels and improve insulin sensitivity. The soup is also loaded with nutrient-dense vegetables like carrots and celery, which are rich in vitamins and minerals. Additionally, warming spices like cumin and turmeric offer anti-inflammatory benefits, which can help manage PCOS symptoms.
