Informed by the strongest evidence, nutritionist Rohini Bajekal works with clients all around the world to transform your hormonal health and the diversity of plants in your diet.

Some of the concerns Rohini helps her clients address include: Women struggling with reproductive health conditions such as Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS), Irregular and Painful periods, Endometriosis.

Women requiring advice around fertility nutrition and IVF. Ensuring adequate nutrient intake for those trying to get pregnant, pregnant women and women who are breastfeeding.

Managing pre-diabetes and type 2 diabetes.

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome, often known as PCOS, is something Rohini has personal experience with. In fact it affects at least 1 in 10 women and is the number one cause of infertility. This complex condition is poorly understood despite how common it is.

To spread knowledge, hope and abundant plant-based deliciousness Rohini co-authored ‘Living PCOS Free’ with her mother, Senior Consultant ObGyn Dr Nitu Bajekal.

In this conversation we cover:

• Rohini’s personal journey to adopting a WFPB lifestyle.
• The importance of community is sustaining a plant-based or vegan lifestyle.
• Things we need to know before going vegan and how to do plant-based diets right.
• The 6 pillars of lifestyle medicine, don’t just go all in on one!
• Rohini’s book, Living PCOS Free and Myths to bust about PCOS.
• Concerns about low carb, animal-based diets.
• What should we consider if we think we might have PCOS?
• Body weight and PCOS.
• Skip the SOS for PCOS.
• The Plant-based PCOS pantry.
• Recommendations on supplements for PCOS, including inositol.
• Rohini’s, new 6-week program for women with PCOS.

If you are struggling to manage PCOS or other reproductive health conditions I hope Rohini is the warm and knowledgeable voice you’ve been looking for. This absolutely is a conversation to forward to the loved one looking for help with their hormonal health.

Rohini’s book, Living PCOS Free, is a practical guide to show you how to successfully manage your condition using proven lifestyle approaches alongside western medicine.

The book features an easy-to-follow 21-day plan for hormonal health along with plant-based recipes and insightful case histories.

As Rohini shares,“While PCOS can seem invisible and is often dealt with in private,” it does not have to be. A supportive community can make all the difference.
