Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) is a lifestyle disorder that can only be managed through diet, exercise, and sometimes symptomatic treatment (depending on what your physician suggests). Managing the symptoms can be challenging, but you can certainly make a few edits to your diet and watch things unravel in your favour.
Using your Usha’s cold-press juicer, you can prepare detoxifying and nutrient-rich beverages that will help you find relief from inflammation and fight acne, pigmentation, and other skin-related ailments. Check out the recipes and enjoy feeling better and lighter, one sip at a time.
Carrot-Ginger Juice
Blend carrots along with some fresh ginger and a few turmeric roots (you can also consider adding a pinch of turmeric powder), along with half a lemon. Carrots, loaded with beta-carotene, are known to help with hormone regulation, and turmeric reduces inflammation and bloating, therefore, Indian desi nuskhe includes turmeric milk as a part of wound healing treatment. Ginger helps you stay full, and this brightly coloured, slightly hot juice can also regulate your blood sugar levels. Thus, it is a wonderful addition to a PCOS-friendly diet.

Lemon-Celery Juice
Use Usha’s cold-press juicer to prepare a beverage of celery stalks with one cucumber and half a lemon. Celery juice is famous for its alkalising, anti-inflammatory effects, which can keep cortisol levels in check and help you manage hormonal imbalances. The cucumber and lemon provide hydration and vitamin C, which is essential for the skin to radiate a natural glow. This light, refreshing juice is a perfect remedy to regulate bowel movements if you drink it first thing in the morning.

Pineapple-Turmeric Juice
In the cold-press juicer, add a bit of fresh turmeric and half an orange. Bromelain in pineapple prevents inflammation and promotes digestion, which is quintessential in the management of PCOS. Turmeric is anti-inflammation, and orange brings a dose of vitamin C to the juice, which will add suppleness to your skin and help it fight free radical damage. This pineapple-spiced tropical-tasting juice will help you improve your overall health, and it will be your go-to beverage once you taste it.
Spinach-Cucumber Juice
Juicing fresh spinach greens, cucumber, celery, and a green apple will yield a green drink. Include a squeeze of lemon for zest for antioxidants and vitamin C. Spinach contains iron and magnesium, while cucumber is hydrating and reduces inflammation. This beverage has a low glycemic index, which means it will not shoot your blood sugar levels like any other fresh fruit juice. It can help you manage insulin resistance and hormonal imbalance, proving to be an essential part of your PCOS diet.
Amla-Cucumber Juice
Mix fresh amla (Indian gooseberry) with cucumber and a bunch of mint leaves to prepare a refreshing beverage that will improve your oral hygiene too. Amla is rich in Vitamin C and antioxidants, enhancing immunity and skin health, which are often compromised among PCOS-affected menstruators. Cucumber calms the digestive system and prevents dehydration. This cooling drink will forever be your favourite one in the summer season.
