Hormone Balance
Rich in phytoestrogens and antioxidants that help modulate estrogen dominance, a key PCOD driver.
Insulin Sensitivity
High in sulforaphane (broccoli/radish microgreens) and fiber — helps reduce insulin resistance, which underlies most PCOD symptoms.
Anti-inflammatory
Concentrated polyphenols reduce chronic low-grade inflammation linked to PCOD.
Weight Management
Very low calorie, high nutrient density — supports healthy weight, which directly improves hormonal balance.
Gut Health
Supports a diverse microbiome, which influences estrogen metabolism via the “estrobolome.”
Key varieties to prioritize:
• Broccoli – sulforaphane, DIM (supports estrogen clearance)
• Fenugreek – improves insulin sensitivity, reduces androgen levels
• Red cabbage – high in antioxidants
• Sunflower – zinc & vitamin E for ovarian health
