Diet Chart for Partial Empty Sella Syndrome
Importance of Diet in Partial Empty Sella
Partial Empty Sella Syndrome (PESS) is an abnormality in which the sella turcica (a bone structure holding the pituitary gland) appears partially filled with cerebrospinal fluid, which can compress the pituitary. This could disrupt hormone control. While diet will not reverse the anatomical change, it will be able to:
- Maintain general hormonal balance
- Improve function of the pituitary
- Reduce inflammation and oxidative stress
- Prevent complications like fatigue, hormonal imbalance, or headache
- Preserve thyroid and adrenal, and energy well-being
Goals of Dietary Management
- Accompany endocrine and nervous system health
- Deliver antioxidants to reduce inflammation
- Stabilise blood sugar and prevent fatigue
- Deliver adequate quantities of key vitamins and minerals
- Accompanied by a healthy weight and metabolism
