Welcome back to The Down to Earth PCOS Nutrition Podcast!
On today’s episode I’m answering a question I hear commonly from women with PCOS: “Why am I always hungry?”
More specifically, women with PCOS tend to struggle with:
- Not staying full after meals
- Constantly feeling the urge to snack
- Experiencing intense sugar and carb cravings
- Thinking about food often and struggling to feel satiety
Hunger, cravings and increased appetite may seem related to willpower or self-control but in fact, there is a strong hormonal component behind these food-related sensations.
What You’ll Learn on this Podcast Episode:
- Why women with PCOS experience uncontrollable hunger.
- How Leptin, Cortisol and Insulin affect appetite and intense cravings.
- Why stronger willpower and self control are not going to help in most cases
- Some best practices to consider if you are constantly hungry.
