In this episode of Mealtime Magic & Mayhem, Tricia is joined by special guest Meggie Connolly, a registered dietitian, nutritionist, and PCOS expert. Meggie has a master's of science in dietetics and a bachelor's of science in dietetics from Deauville College in Buffalo, New York.

Throughout the episode, Meggie shares insights into the connection between PCOS and nutrition, providing practical tips for managing the condition. She emphasizes the importance of a balanced approach to nutrition, highlighting the value of education, adjustments to the diet, and lifestyle changes to improve insulin resistance and inflammation.
Meggie also emphasizes the importance of combining foods to manage blood sugar levels and cravings. She advises combining high glycemic index carbs or sugary foods with protein and healthy fats to slow down digestion and prevent blood sugar spikes. She cautions against restrictive diets and encourages mindful and intuitive eating, enjoying food intentionally rather than restricting or overeating.
