This video, titled "PCOS Reversal" by Deb Ford DCN RDN, explains how to reverse Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) and other hormone imbalances. Deb Ford shares her personal experience and extensive knowledge, highlighting that PCOS is a serious condition causing infertility and other health issues. She outlines four key areas for reversal: epigenetics, inflammatory diet, insulin resistance, and high testosterone, emphasizing that diet and lifestyle choices are crucial for managing and reversing these conditions.
Key Takeaways
1
PCOS is a leading cause of infertility in women and can also cause hair loss, acne, obesity, stress, mood problems, and increase the risk of chronic illnesses later in life.
2
Your health is 90% determined by diet and lifestyle, with only 10% being genetic, meaning predisposition does not equal destiny.
3
Environmental toxins from food, air, water, and household products significantly impact epigenetics and can trigger PCOS.
4
The Standard American Diet (SAD) is a major cause of cellular inflammation, with sugar and refined carbohydrates being particularly pro-inflammatory for women with PCOS.
5
Insulin resistance affects about 80% of women with PCOS, leading to higher blood sugar and insulin levels, causing hunger and stress.
6
High testosterone levels in women with PCOS can be caused by prenatal or current exposure to endocrine-disrupting chemicals like BPA and phthalates.
7
Stress significantly impacts hormone balance, with up to 60% of women with PCOS experiencing increased adrenal cortisol and other stress hormones.
8
Inflammation of the ovaries, often due to an inflammatory diet, irritates the cells that produce testosterone, worsening hormone imbalance.
9
Diet and lifestyle changes are the fundamental and most effective way to address the root causes of PCOS and hormone imbalances, rather than just treating symptoms.

Dr. Deb Ford offers a 12-week "No PCOS for Me" program based on science, research, and personal experience to guide women through reversing hormone imbalances with extensive support.

6:58
important information that you want you
7:00
need I want you to stay focused so you
7:02
can walk away knowing that it was time
7:06
well spent take it from me when you try
7:08
to multitask you can't do anything well
7:11
you know and besides that you are
7:12

7:14
squirely and unproductive so please take
7:17

7:39
does that sound good right okay let's
7:41
get at it but in case you're wondering
7:43
if you're in the right place you are in
7:46
the right place if you're tired of going
7:49
to gynecologist dermatologist
7:52
gastroenterologist psychologist or any
7:55
other olist it's scary you just want to
7:58
know what's going on with your body and
8:00
for it to be normal or you're in the
8:02
right place if you know you just look on
8:06
food and you put on weight maybe you're
8:08
hungry all the time and you crave sweets
8:10
and sugar and or you're fatigued and you
8:13
depend on that caffeine to get you
8:15
through the day and you can't even think
8:17
about exercise or if you do you sure
8:19
can't keep it up but it's not your fault
8:24
or sometimes your fuse is just a little
8:27
short you don't mean it but sometimes
8:30
you know just a little on edge and Co
8:34
certainly has not helped that it's made
8:36
it a lot worse for so many people I've
8:40
had more women complaining about hair
8:43
loss insomnia stress anxiety since this
8:47
whole thing hit it's made everything
8:49
worse or maybe your moods are fine your
8:53
weight is fine and your Cycles are just
8:54
a little messed up you want to have a
8:57
baby or maybe your past menopause was
9:00
and your hormones maybe never were right
9:02

9:04
really need and want to understand
9:07
what's going on with your hormones
9:08

10:06
reverse hormone imbalances I am so glad
10:09

how differently my life would have been
10:25
if I hadn't found the answers and made
10:27

10:30
people that are on my team and in my
10:33
life that would not have been here you

first of all I think you want to know a
10:45
little bit about me so look at these

the changes and reversed my PCOS they
10:59
bring joy to my life daily and I mean
11:02
look at them oh my gosh you know I came
11:05
within weeks of a hysterectomy yeah and
11:09
I went on to have three perfect if I do
11:12
say so myself children and now an
11:14
absolutely adorable grandson brilliant
11:16
too you may know me as Dr Deb Ford um Dr
11:20
clinical nutrition dietician owner of
11:22
the health food shop for 44 years but
11:25
what you may not know about me is the
11:27
passion for what I do comes from solving
11:30
my own
11:32
weaknesses and you know I had one over
11:36
removed when I was 17 and a proposed
11:38
hysterctomy when I was 22 my desire to
11:41
help you runs deep because of that I
11:43
spent my whole educational career
11:45
studying all the biochemical Pathways of
11:48
hormones and nutrients and foods and
11:50
especially understanding polycystic
11:52
ovarian syndrome and what is truthful
11:56
and what is not worth your time so I've
11:58
put the best in my 12 12 we program the
12:00
no PCOS for me program designed to help
12:03
reverse and get at the root cause of the
12:05
problem no Band-Aids we're going to help
12:07
you target those underlying imbalances
12:10
that increase your risk of nasty
12:12
diseases hormones are us wow that's big
12:16
it's true so now how about you think of
12:19
how about your life what is going to be
12:21
different when your hormones are
12:23
balanced each day is it a little easier
12:26
you know do you struggle less with your
12:28
appearance random hair acne everything
12:31

12:35
your life easier and better how will
12:38
your family life be better going to be
12:40
pretty great take a moment and dream
12:43
your future can and will Amaze you like
12:46
mine has once hormone hell is reversed
12:49
life can truly unfold in such rewarding
12:51
and Heavenly ways and there are four
12:54
things you might want to write down
12:56
that's going to impact this number one
12:59
epigenetic
13:00
then we've got the inflammatory diet
13:02
then we have insulin resistance and then
13:04
we have high testosterone that's what
13:06
we're going to cover those are the
13:07
important things so let's look at
13:10
genetic influences is it your genes well
13:14
many studies suggest your risk of PCOS
13:17
is much as eight times higher if you
13:19
have a mother a sister or an aunt with
13:21
PCOS and it's not just mother to
13:24
daughter fathers can pass down traits to
13:26
daughters if fathers had heart disease
13:29
or stroke the daughters had double and
13:31
triple the risk of
13:33
PCOS some really new info is coming that
13:37
fathers with prostate enlargement may
13:40
pass down that insulin resistance we'll
13:42
talk about later to offspring and
13:44
continuing to learn more and more about
13:47
this bottom line an unrefined High
13:49
vegetable diet is the best we'll go into
13:51
that in a minute I didn't have anyone
13:53
that I knew or maybe you don't either
13:55
nobody in your family nobody in my
13:57
family that I know of maybe the first
14:00
like I was let me know in that email but
14:04
epigenetics that interaction with your
14:07
genes and your environment that's the
14:09
big picture here exposures that can
14:12
affect Offspring for Generations from
14:14
mother to daughter to granddaughter yeah
14:18
that's what the research shows the most
14:20
important thing that you might want to
14:22
write down now really important is
14:26
predisposition does not mean Destiny I
14:29
want you to really hear that the genes
14:31
have to be triggered it can run in
14:33
families but your exposures trigger it
14:38
that's epigenetics and it's really
14:40
important epigenetics so let's look a
14:42
little
14:43
closer it's your diet and lifestyle that
14:46
determine 90% of your health only 10% is
14:50
genetic that's powerful do you know the
14:53
extensive data and how many scientific
14:55
journals show that the major trigger for
14:58
PCOS is exposure to environmental toxins
15:02
we have a whole module in the no PCOS
15:05
for me 12we program we cover it
15:07
thoroughly so you don't have to stress
15:09
worry and look around for all the
15:10
information this is important and it
15:13
really can't be overstated and you might
15:15
want to write this down too diet and
15:18
lifestyle exposure of what talks to and
15:21
influences your epigenetics your gene
15:25
expression you've got a lot of control
15:27
here if you think hm all the women in my
15:30
family have excess hair or thin hair or
15:33
overweight or have this problem that
15:34
problem so I might as well resign myself
15:37
I'm here to tell you it ain't so it
15:40
doesn't mean you are doomed most
15:42
importantly you are not flawed in fact
15:45
there's a lot of research that suggests
15:48
that a very important reason that our
15:50
genes were modified at some point were
15:53
there to protect our ancestors there was
15:56
a trigger that set those genes up for
15:59
are survival but those genes can be
16:02
silenced so that you can express Optimal
16:05
Health from here on there was a really
16:07
important study a twin study couldn't do
16:11
this anymore but they were twins that
16:13
were separated at Birth adopted into
16:15
different families if genes were the
16:18
determinant for the outcome the twins
16:21
would have had the same health or
16:23
disease instead their health mirrored
16:27
the family that raised them triggers for
16:29
or hormone imbalance can be reversed and
16:31
that puts you in the driver's seat it's
16:34
the environment God didn't make a
16:36
mistake in your design all right you got
16:38
it that is right you bet this is where
16:42
you've got power over it and this is
16:44
usually when my Methodist section gives
16:46
an amen okay so it's important I mean
16:50
it's not like you're doomed and you are
16:51
not
16:52
flawed toxins they affect our
16:55
epigenetics everything we eat we drink
16:58
we breathe put on our skin our liver has
17:00
to clear out it was never designed to do
17:03
as much as it's being asked to do the
17:06
international Agency for research on
17:08
cancer and the World Health Organization
17:10
both conclude that 80 to 90% of all
17:13
cancers are attributed to environmental
17:16
factors not genetic in our food food
17:20
today is really unrecognizable of what
17:22
it would have been 100 years ago in our
17:24
air we spend 90% of our time indoors in
17:28
si buildings with outgassing of all the
17:32
carpets and the paints and the Plastics
17:34
and the flooring for Malahide in our
17:37
water unfortunately our water quality is
17:39
a huge issue industrial dumping causing
17:42
cancer pesticide runoff leaky storage
17:45
tanks landfills fluoride chlorine not to
17:48
mention our household cleaners or our
17:51
Cosmetics a really good resource that
17:53
you might want to write down is the
17:55
environmental working group ewg.org
18:00
in the no PCOS for me program starting
18:03
October 16th we do a whole module on
18:05
toxins and show you how to affordably
18:08
and easily avoid them so what matters
18:11
for your
18:12
epigenetics well basically everything
18:14
the food you choose your activity your
18:17
toxin exposure the stress you're exposed
18:20
to and how you react to it you can't
18:23
choose your parents or your genes but
18:26
you can choose your environment that
18:27
determines how the genes
18:29
act in the no PCOS for me program we
18:33
focus on the little hinges That Swing
18:35
the big door of hormone balance no fuss
18:39
no mus I got you here and everybody
18:41
that's been through the program says
18:43
it's doable and wonderful for me you
18:46
know my epigenetics I wasn't breastfed I
18:49
was on antibiotics for 10 years I ate
18:51
junk I had tons of silver fillings I
18:53
wasn't active I was a carboholic all
18:56
this epigenetically changed my Gene EXP
18:59
expression set me up for
19:01
PCOS do you think you've had hoxin
19:04
exposure tell me what kind in the email
19:07
okay so key number two inflammatory diet
19:11
you know what the biggest cause of
19:12
cellular inflammation is standard
19:14
American diet sad D and yes it is
19:18
associated with every chronic disease
19:21
fast food sugary processed food
19:24
chemicals hormones shrink wrap food that
19:27
never spoils everyone knows it's bad but
19:30
did you know the biggest reason that it
19:32
is so bad for us is because it's
19:36
inflammatory it causes cellular
19:39
inflammation and if you decide to change
19:42
you're confused about what you should
19:44
eat when you should eat should I fast
19:46
should I graze should I be vegetarian
19:48
vegan paleo keto oh my gosh the
19:51
information out there can be
19:53
overwhelming and you need to choose
19:56
wisely so we dig in to that deeply in
20:01
the 12we program if you choose to go on
20:03
the program you are going to know more
20:06
than most dietitians promise and if
20:09
you've been multitasking come back to me
20:11
here you really need to write this down
20:13
sugar and refined carbs are
20:16
pro-inflammatory at a cellular level and
20:20
women with PCOS super react to sugars of
20:24
all kinds with low grade inflammation
20:27
and that stimulates the ovaries to
20:29
produce tons of testosterone that stops
20:32
ovulation that causes a lot of other
20:34
problems that chronic silent low-grade
20:36
inflammation is considered the biggest
20:39
problem in PCOS throughout the Lifetime
20:43
by all researchers so we need to start
20:45
with diet simple place to start you know
20:48
smoothies so easy to do smoothies are an
20:51
easy meal that I often have for one of
20:55
my meals rich in protein fat and carbs
20:58
and that's the the basic of good
21:00
smoothies okay so this is how you all
21:02
put it all together you start with a
21:03
quality protein powder has to have about
21:06
20 gram of protein anything but Soy okay
21:10
then about a tablespoon of flax oil or
21:12
any kind of good healthy oil uh that we
21:15
go into coconut oil ghee I like flax oil
21:18
cuz it's going to be omega-3 I put a
21:21
handful of Greens in you know 12 oz of
21:24
either coconut milk nut milk or even
21:26
water half a banana uh half a cup of
21:29
frozen berries teaspoon of maca and you
21:32
can throw in some Fiber like pelium or
21:34
hemp or you know Chia seins if you like
21:37
if you need to have a little sweetener I
21:39
don't but you can put a little monk
21:40
fruit in there uh really is good I like
21:43
the Maca because it's it's what we call
21:45
the fertility smoothie the fertile
21:47
Myrtle smoothie oh gosh there is so much
21:50
historical data on Maca from the South
21:53
American countries that it's pretty
21:55
amazing they use it for um hormonal
21:57
health and it's research on it and
22:00
testimonials are pretty amazing okay so
22:03
another thing saving time because change
22:06
takes preparation so usually it's a
22:08
Sunday afternoon where you can chop up
22:10
and prepare all the food ahead of time
22:12
you've made the menus you got the
22:13
groceries good time to do that and you
22:15
can be well on your way to a super
22:18
fantastic week not so hard not as hard
22:21
as PCOS I can tell you that we may do a
22:24
Sunday prep Facebook live for members
22:26
that want to um can see how how easy it
22:30
is also another super easy way is soup
22:34
healthy easy way fast food using the
22:36
crockpot insta pot or just on the stove
22:39
pot on that Sunday afternoon and you can
22:41
set up a week's worth of meals this is
22:43
an interesting study in 2015 in the
22:46
Journal of obesity and weight loss
22:47
therapy published a study 8 weeks long
22:50
on the PCOS diet a PCOS diet with no
22:54
change in exercise and it resulted in
22:57
significant weight loss when needed
23:00
increased insulin sensitivity reduction
23:03
in testosterone and increased vitamin D
23:06
without supplementation okay pretty
23:08
interesting the meal plan even allowed
23:10
for an occasional glass of wine so diet
23:14
alone can help but in the no PCOS for me
23:17
12we program that starts October 16th we
23:21
cover you on all fronts all the
23:23
metabolic areas so that you're going to
23:25
be a champion you can try the Paleo the
23:28
vegan the ter in the carnivore you can
23:31
fast or whatever the latest bad is that
23:33
you're reading about but will you find
23:36
what you're looking for who knows what I
23:39
can tell you that in my 12we no PCOS for
23:42
me program it's based on science and
23:45
research personal experience no guessing
23:49
you put in the effort and you're digging
23:50
over the well we zero in on the most
23:53
important points you know time is
23:56
precious that's all we have and you
23:58
don't want to waste your time if
24:00
especially if you're wanting to have a
24:02
baby or if you're having hot flashes or
24:04
you're just miserable time to feel great
24:08
key number three insulin resistance and
24:11
you may want to note this that the vast
24:14
majority about 80% of women with PCOS
24:17
have insulin resistant think of it as
24:19
the cell as a room with a locked door
24:24
lots of cool stuff can go on in that
24:26
cell it could be a factory that makes
24:28
things or can just be a closet that
24:29
stores things but you have to be able to
24:32
unlock that door so the stuff can get in
24:34
there the key to unlock the sill is the
24:38
key insulin that insulin key is mostly
24:43
released when you eat carbs sugar or
24:46
sweets normally insulin unlocks the cell
24:50
door and gets that blood sugar energy in
24:53
there and once it get in there it get
24:54
does all sorts of great things but if
24:56
that key stops working this is called
24:58
called insulin resistance and as a
25:01
result that blood sugar gets locked out
25:04
so in your cells the blood sugar goes
25:07
higher the insulin goes higher and
25:09
that's going to make you hungry and the
25:11
and hungry for more carbs and feeling
25:13
more stressed so an important thing to
25:16
write down here insulin resistance makes
25:19
you hungry and
25:21
stressed and I got to be truthful here
25:23
one of the reasons that I kind of sped
25:25
up this program the no PCB exped IED it
25:29
because I knew with what's going on here
25:32
and all the stress that we're having if
25:34
I were
25:35
you I would be eating all the wrong
25:38
Foods feeling worse stressed depressed
25:41
and not knowing this information I'd be
25:44
making bread and cookies and all those
25:47
tasty things that are absolutely a
25:49
firestorm for insulin resistance I know
25:52
you need this information now more than
25:55
ever for your moods for your hormones
25:59
for your cellular Health we brought this
26:02
to you because it makes you hungry and
26:05
stressed it tends to make you gain
26:07
weight and we have the mistaken idea is
26:09
only for heavier women but that is not
26:11
true insulin resistance comes in all
26:14
sizes you can't assume by looking at
26:17
somebody that they are prone to PCOS or
26:19
not because it is deceiving common
26:23
recommendation by doctors is just lose
26:25
weight simple as that but you got to
26:28
heal the insulin resistance you've got
26:30
you can be heavier and still be
26:32
metabolically balanced it doesn't
26:34
necessarily mean there's a problem so I
26:36
have Shortcuts To Success to balancing
26:39
the hormones and balancing insulin
26:41
resistance and one of my favorite
26:43
supplements for insulin resistance is
26:44
berberine 500 milligrams three times a
26:47
day backed by solid research of course
26:50
and in the 12we program we go into the
26:52
herbs and supplements that have research
26:54
for PCOS of course I have some of my
26:57
favorites and berberine's one of them
26:58
but we go through all of them all the
27:00
really good solid research but as if
27:03
PCOS is not bad enough the association
27:07
is just about every major
27:10
disease isn't discussed but it can't be
27:13
ignored in fact it's dangerous and it
27:17
because it doesn't stop at menopause or
27:20
with surgery I like to say that your
27:22
problems do stop at menopause and you
27:25
know but they don't PCOS doesn't end
27:29
when you hit menopause that underlying
27:31
imbalance of insulin resistance that's
27:34
the kicker that needs to be treated and
27:37
the no PCOS Forme 12we program that
27:39
starts October 16th we laser in on the
27:42
approach that gets the best results with
27:45
the least amount of effort can you see
27:47
your cause here let me know I mean is is
27:51
heart disease running the family all of
27:53
that plays A Part key number four excess
27:57
testosterone you know the beard and and
28:00
the hair and the receding hairline look
28:02
good on him but it's not the look we're
28:04
going for so how do we get here and how
28:08
do we get out well all women make a
28:12
small amount of male hormones but most
28:15
women with PCOS make a heck of a lot
28:18
more than normal and that causes a lot
28:21
of confusion in a woman's body so what
28:24
are the causes well could be prenatal
28:27
exposure or current exposure causing the
28:30
adverse health effects potentially
28:32
across several Generations enderin
28:34
disrupting chemicals edc's even has a
28:37
name that is huge bisphenol a BPA
28:41
environmental working group says women
28:43
with PCOS have higher levels of BPA
28:46
leading to higher insulin and male
28:49
hormones it causes so many other
28:51
problems including cancer BPA is found
28:55
in cash register receipts flame
28:57
retardant and on the Linings of canned
28:59
goods and the FDA still allows it
29:02
another thing phalates it's in Plastics
29:04
and cosmetics it's another horrible one
29:07
that can trigger testicular cells to die
29:11
yeah the male parts and even worse
29:13
hormone changes birth defects obesity
29:16
diabetes and thyroid irregularities
29:18
phalates are everywhere were you fed
29:21
from a plastic baby bottle do you steam
29:23
your vegetables in plastic bags as a
29:25
bonus if you join me in the no PCOS for
29:28
me 12 program you're going to get a
29:29
whole book on natural toxin Solutions so
29:33
you can avoid many harmful chemicals
29:35
that have been banned around the world
29:37
but allowed in the United States for
29:40
some reason so other causes of high male
29:44
hormones in women come from the adrenal
29:46
glands the glands that respond to stress
29:49
in the environment up to 60% of women
29:52
with PCOS have increased levels of
29:55
adrenal cortisol and other stress
29:57
hormones for for unknown reasons this
30:00
makes them deeply feel the stresses and
30:03
urgencies that others don't feel there's
30:06
no let down the cortisol is driving
30:09
everything hormones are us so active
30:12
stress reduction is a major important
30:14
key here in the no PCOS for me 12we
30:17
program that starts October 16th we dig
30:20
deep here making sure we get that
30:23
cortisol calmed down and reversed and
30:26
this is a big one inflammation
30:29
of the ovary again one of the sources is
30:32
the inflammatory diet in PCOS the
30:35
inflammatory compounds that are
30:36
circulating in the system irritate the
30:39
outer layer of the ovaries called the
30:41
FCA cells th ECA those thecas is where
30:45
testosterone is made so if those Thea
30:48
cells are irritated they swell and
30:50
overproduce testosterone the hormone
30:53
imbalance continues crazy all comes back
30:55
to an inflammatory diet food is medicine
30:59
the best
31:00
medicine another reason for high
31:03
testosterone is family history of trauma
31:06
maybe the mother was under a lot of
31:08
stress think also about women and
31:10
abusive relationships when she's
31:12
pregnant the stress hormones are higher
31:15
it can even go across Generations maybe
31:17
grandma was stressed you know maybe
31:19
there was Financial stress sleep stress
31:22
food scarcity or trying to work all day
31:24
and then come home and run a
31:26
household across generation
31:29
so excess testosterone can make you
31:32
agitated Sleepless anxious depressed
31:35
give you acne cause facial hair growth
31:38
scalp hair loss irritate the ovary to
31:41
over reduce testosterone and interfere
31:43
with ovulation so how many doctors does
31:46
it take to cover up all those symptoms
31:48
but it doesn't get at the root cause you
31:51
know but look at all those pretty
31:53
pills diet and lifestyle approach is the
31:56
only way to get at the roota cause that
31:59
little hinge that swings the big door of
32:02
hormone
32:04
balance so covid and life right now is
32:08
uncertain and a lot is out of our
32:11
control but there's so much we can
32:13
control when it comes to our health
32:15
today I think it's the best time to make
32:18
these changes that are going to assure a
32:21
healthier future for you and your family

there's no better time you know I I
32:26
never saw my problem coming and then I
32:29
was in within a couple weeks of
32:31
life-changing surgery I don't want you
32:34
