Living with
PCOS
(Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome)is difficult
for any number of reasons. There are, of course, the most well-known
and most heartbreaking symptoms of the condition—namely, the fact
that it can prevent women from conceiving a child. There are also the
more embarrassing and worrisome symptoms of hair loss, hair growth,
acne, and skin tags. And of course, there is the fact that the
condition is also accompanied by excessive weight gain, even obesity.
But there are other, serious effects of
PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome)
that often go unnamed. That includes the fact that many women with
this condition
have
a hard time sleeping at night; indeed, sleep disruptions are one of
the most frustrating and maddening effects of this condition. But
what’s the connection, and what can be done about it? To understand
that, we first need to understand precisely what lies at the heart of
PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome).
Insulin and Zzzzzzzzzz’s
It is not, contrary to what its name
might suggest, a primarily ovarian problem; on the contrary, it is
typically rooted in
Insulin
Resistance. This is a condition in which
the body loses its ability to fully absorb glucose from the blood
stream. It can create an imbalance of hormones that leads to all the
effects mentioned above.
In particular, it can lead to insomnia.
The connection between
PCOS
(Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) and restless, sleepless nights has
everything to do with the obesity and overall unhealthiness that go
hand in hand with the condition of Insulin Resistance—so it only
stands to reason that the way to get your good, restful nights of
sleep back is to boost your insulin sensitivity
Reversing Insulin Resistance
So how do you reverse
Insulin
Resistance? There are a couple of important lifestyle changes you
need to make. The first is increasing the amount of exercise you get;
scientists have found that physical activity can boost your insulin
production! Another step is to start eating a more nutritious diet,
combating the obesity or general unhealthiness that lies at the heart
of your condition. By doing these things, you can not only treat your
symptoms and kick Insulin Resistance, but you can also start sleeping
better at night!
The
other
thing
a women suffering Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) might do is to
look into the Insulite Labs supplements that are available. In
particular, the PCOS System offers hormone-balancing
effects that have been scientifically calibrated to reverse the
condition. That means there is very much hope here, and, for women
who properly educate themselves and take the precautions necessary to
thwart the effects of the condition, no reason why PCOS has to lead
to insomnia problems.
Insulite Laboratories, a Boulder,
Colorado USA based company, is committed to reversing Insulin
Resistance - a potentially dangerous imbalance of blood glucose and
insulin. Scientific research has revealed that this disorder can be a
primary cause of excess weight gain and obesity, plus Pre-Diabetes
and Type 2 Diabetes. Insulin Resistance can also underlie the cluster
of increased risk factors for cardiovascular damage called Metabolic
Syndrome (Syndrome X) as well as PCOS (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) -
a major source of serious diseases as well as heartbreaking female
infertility.
Recognizing that there are millions of
people who need this kind of systematic approach to reversing insulin
resistance, Insulite Laboratories has, developed systems to address
the underlying causes of Metabolic Syndrome, Polycystic Ovarian
Syndrome (PCOS), Excess Weight/Obesity, Pre-Diabetes and Type 2
Diabetes.
