Try this 5-minute PCOS Power Smoothie for an easy high fiber breakfast

This PCOS Power Smoothie recipe is one of my personal favorites. Not only does it taste delicious, but the ingredients have been shown to help with inflammation and gut health – which is extra important for those of us with PCOS.

Spices like cinnamon and turmeric are inflammation-killers (and pretty tasty too – but be careful, as turmeric can easily stain). We know berries are a PCOS holy grail, and it’s great to get some greens in the morning (promise you won’t taste the kale but it can be easily replaced with spinach if you’re not really feeling it).

Chocolate chips are totally optional, but add a nice sweetness (honey can do the same!) and decadence to the morning. Honestly, it’s important to treat ourselves to a little extra sweetness, and this is a great way to do a tiny bit of that.

Dairy can be rough for some with PCOS, as it can elevate insulin levels. In terms of what I prefer, coconut milk and almond milk all the way, but, listen – use the one you like the best. We’re trying to enjoy our mornings here, not cut corners every time one appears.

Happy sipping!
