This episode is an excerpt from a presentation by Siobhan Huggins during our Innovative Solutions for Lipedema & Lymphedema virtual symposium held in October 2021.

Siobhan, a promising researcher who received a lipedema diagnosis in early 2021, explores potential mechanisms behind the effectiveness of the ketogenic diet for lipedema.

Here she discusses how keto may enhance metabolic health and lymphatic function, reduce fibrosis and hypoxia, and address hypothyroidism—an often associated comorbidity of lipedema.
