Today, I have an excerpt from a presentation by Dr. Matthew Carmody at Lipedema Simplified’s April 2024 Heart to Heart virtual event: Keto and Beyond: Customizing Your Plan to Joyful Nutrition. His talk was titled: Semaglutide: Magic or Malevolent? Dr. Carmody is an Assistant Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School and a Diplomate of the American Board of Obesity Medicine. He recently retired from his practice as an Internal Medicine practitioner to focus on lipedema and obesity medicine. Dr. Carmody currently serves as a medical advisor for Lipedema Simplified and Lipedema Project and is a contributing author for our text on lipedema, which is due to be published in 2025.
