In this episode of the Brown Vegan podcast, I interview Britany King about her journey towards becoming plant-based and how it relates to her work as a licensed therapist.

After being diagnosed with PCOS in 2015 (and not satisfied with the treatment plan her doctor provided), she explored alternative methods, including a plant-based diet.

We chat about how PCOS affects women of color disproportionately. Britany also highlights many Black women may not even realize they have PCOS due to a lack of education and awareness about the symptoms. Women are often taught that irregular periods are normal and may not realize that other symptoms such as hair loss, excess hair growth, and changes in blood sugar levels could be linked to PCOS.
