PCOS is often reduced to one piece of advice: “just lose weight.”
But the reality is far more complex.

In this episode of It's Pretty Simple, I speak with PCOS dietitian Sana about what’s really happening in the body with PCOS — from insulin resistance and hormones to nutrition and lifestyle.

We break down common myths around carbs, gluten, dairy, HIIT training, and GLP-1 medications, and discuss what actually helps women manage symptoms and improve their health.

If you have PCOS or work with women who do, this conversation will help you understand the bigger picture behind weight loss, metabolism, and long-term health.

I walked the last 100 kilometers of the Camino de Santiago, and this episode is the full breakdown of the experience — the physical challenge, the mindset shift, the people I met, and what the walk taught me about slowing down, presence, and carrying less weight in life.

In this episode I share:
• Why I chose to walk the Camino after my half marathon
• What the daily rhythm of the Camino really feels like
• How the hostels, the routine, and the simplicity reset me
• The backpack metaphor and how it mirrors the pressure we carry
• What I learned about discomfort, slowing down, and being more present
• How I fueled for a 100KM walk
• Practical Camino tips I learned from other pilgrims
• A short conversation with an 81-year-old man walking his sixth Camino

If you’re curious about the Camino, planning to walk it, or you want a mindset refresh, this episode will give you something to think about.

Creatine is one of the most studied supplements in the world — but it’s still surrounded by myths. In this episode of It’s Pretty Simple, I explain what creatine actually is, how it works with your body’s energy system (ATP), and why creatine monohydrate is the best option to take daily.

We’ll cover:

• What “water retention” really means (and why it’s actually a good thing)

• Do you need to cycle creatine? (spoiler: no!)

• The brain benefits: focus, mental energy, and even protection in contact sports

• Why creatine isn’t just for athletes — it has health benefits outside the gym too

🎧 Whether you’re lifting, running, or just want more energy and focus day-to-day, creatine could be the simplest supplement to add to your routine.

Why does it feel harder to lose fat — especially belly fat as an Indian Woman when you're eating a traditional Indian diet?

This week on It’s Pretty Simple, I’m joined by fellow nutritionist Zankriti to unpack the real reasons Desi women struggle with fat loss, muscle gain, bloating, and confusing advice around dairy, carbs, protein, and weight.

✔️ Eating home-cooked vegetarian food
✔️ Avoiding junk
✔️ Still not seeing results...

This episode is for you.

We cover:
✅ The biggest mistakes with Indian vegetarian meals
✅ Why belly fat is so stubborn in South Asians
✅ Lactose intolerance: fact or myth?
✅ The obsession with the scale and why body composition matters more
✅ What to do if you're taking medications like Ozempic or Manjaro
✅ How to strength train as a Desi woman — and stop fearing protein
