Shownotes

Today, I'll cover two case studies on carbohydrate restriction for treating lipedema.

The first study, conducted by Polish nutritionists with Magdalena Jerzak as one of the authors, examines the effectiveness of a low-carbohydrate (non-ketogenic) diet for lipedema management. Published in Drugs in Poland in October 2021, this paper underscores Jerzak's significance, especially considering her role as a keto coach for Lipedema Simplified.

The second case study, led by Dr. Roberto Cannataro in Italy, delves into using a ketogenic diet to manage lipedema. Titled "Management of Lipedema with Ketogenic Diet: 22-Month Follow-Up," this paper contributes to Cannataro's extensive research on ketogenic diets for various medical conditions. Despite differences in dietary approaches, both studies showed significant improvements in lipedema symptoms.
