Exploring the Ketogenic Diet as a Treatment Approach for Lipedema
- We’re excited to talk about the publication of our article, “Ketogenic Diet as a Potential Intervention for Lipedema,” released by Elsevier, one of the world’s leading medical publishers.
- This article was a collaborative effort by an outstanding team, and it examines how lipedema differs from obesity and lymphedema, along with its symptoms and diagnosis.
- We explore the potential of the ketogenic diet to alleviate symptoms of lipedema, presenting our hypothesis and advocating for further research to support women with this condition.Reference:Keith L., Seo C.A., Rowsemitt C., Pfeffer M., Wahi M., Staggs M., Dudek J., Gower B., Carmody M.
