I know via various studies that insulin stimulates androgen synthesis in ovaries via the cognale receptor and inositolglycan pathways(Nestlaer et al. 1998). It is strongly linked to Poly Ovarian Syndrome without a dought, as specialists in this field are well aware off. Since the ovaries remain sensitive to insulin when the other tissues such as fat and muscle are resistant, it stimulates excess androgens which further encourage insulkin resitance. Polycystic Ovarian syndrome is caused by insulin resistance via todays high sugar/carb diets. Reverting to the stone age diets, with low starchy vegetables and higher protien but moderate fats, no dairy/no grain, low carbohydrates is the way. This book should be taken seriously. High insulin effects the ovaries and leads to hyperandrogenism in polycystic ovarian syndrome, and blocking these andgrogens or lowing them by diet helps to control insulin resistance which is very common in today's 21st century, and help you not only lose weight, but prevent disease. So many woman are locked in the world of "I can not control my eating", "I am getting fatter" or have been diagnosed with binge eating/bulemia. Life will not get easier, and one will continue searching forever until you go back to nature. Problems like eating disorders are strongly linked to hypoglycemia/excess androgens/high insulin,via our crazy diets. BUT NOT ALL there will be the minority with other causes. High insulin leads to type 2 diabetes. Act now and change your life, dump the sugar and junk in your life and empower your life and make your dreams come true :-) GOOD LUCK!

Practical, but outdated?

One of the more recent offerings from the Glucose Revolution, highly informative, if a little speculative, as to why the overproduction of insulin could have a detrimental effect on sex hormones and ultimately health. The problem I have with GI is that it can be lowered by eating fatty foods, and so forth, but still be potentially harmful (i.e. slow energy release does not ensure controlled insulin release). When are we going to see the Insulin Index in print?

This book is a must for those with PCOS because it explains the cause of the hormonal imbalances that occur in this condition and how to deal with it long term through the low glycemic index way of eating.
