properties of honey
by: rose marie

Hi, I have been reading up on some of the benifits of honey as follows acid reflux,esophagus ulcer,h. pylori,gastritis,duodenal ulcer,diverticulitis,ulcerative colitis,irritable bowel syndrom. Externally wound care burns diabetic ulcers sores MARSA beauty treatment. Apparently for so much things these and more. However, it did not mention the use of it for PCOS, I cant imagin why not if the person does not have any insulin problems, surely there should be a way to administer the honey in a safe way for these patients,considering honey has the following properties,antibacterial,antimicrobial activity,antiseptic activity,anti-inflammatory activity,slightly acid,can also be used for allergy and asthma. These are only a fiew of the properties and uses of honey. Could some one help.Thanks e-mail address deyelandgirl@verizon.net

quantity

Hi, Can you please suggest what is the minimum quantity of fenugreek that can be taken everyday? can you suggest which food items are good for pcos people to help them reduce the same.

Ed. comments: There is no minimum or maximum quantity of fenugreek. You can just include it as part of your diet. All by itself, in isolation, fenugreek is not going to get rid of PCOS.

As for foods that are good for PCOS, we have written a book about that.

Pcos
by: Khuaish

Hi, as it is said in the article that we should intake fenugreek seeds in case of pcod but i was wondering if that is right as in the case of pcos as per my understanding fenugreek seeds increase estrogen level in our body and we need to lower the estrogen level if we are the patients having pcos problems. i hope i am right by saying so. please suggest and correct me if i am wrong in any means...

Ed. comments: Lots of foods have some components that are estrogen "mimics". That does not mean that if you eat those foods, your estrogen levels will rise. It's a whole lot more complicated than that.

Secondly, as far as estrogen is concerned, you should be more concerned about "estrogen dominance".

Moreover, fenugreek is helpful for controlling blood sugar problems, which is a very common problem in PCOS.
