Today, I’m sharing an inspiring excerpt from our 2019 Lipedema & Keto Worldwide Summit featuring Jason Quinn, a Zen Health Coach.

In this interview, Jason discusses the importance of tracking your progress, connecting with your body, and understanding the deeper reasons behind your health goals.

In today's episode, we'll dive into a groundbreaking study by Dr. Arin Greene and Christopher Sudduth, titled Lower Extremity Lymphatic Function Predicted by Body Mass Index: A Lymphoscintigraphic Study of Obesity and Lipedema, published in the International Journal of Obesity in September 2020. The research highlights the importance of distinguishing between lymphedema, obesity, and lipedema to improve diagnosis and treatment. The authors found that BMI, through lymphoscintigraphy, can predict the risk of lymphedema in patients with obesity and lipedema, providing valuable insights for medical providers in tailoring treatment plans.

In this episode, we discuss a study from Turkey titled The Effects of Complete Decongestive Therapy, Intermittent Pneumatic Compression Therapy, or Exercise Only in the Treatment of Severe Lipedema: A Randomized Controlled Trial, published in Lymphatic Research and Biology in December 2020. The researchers explored the effectiveness of different interventions for women with later-stage lipedema. The study suggests that exercise plays a crucial role in treating stage 3-4 lipedema and that combining it with manual lymph drainage and compression bandaging can lead to more optimal outcomes.

In this episode, we explore the research conducted by Philipp Kruppa and colleagues from Germany, titled Lipedema Pathogenesis, Diagnosis, and Treatment Options, published in Deutsches Ärzteblatt International in May 2020. The study highlights the chronic nature of lipedema, which can lead to feelings of helplessness and depression. The research emphasizes how appearance-related distress and depression significantly impact the quality of life for those with lipedema. This work is crucial for understanding the full scope of how lipedema affects women’s lives and underscores the need to combat weight bias in healthcare and society.

Today, I’d like to share insights from a study written by researchers in Chile, and published in the Journal of Aesthetic Nursing in March 2024.

This research aims to investigate the effects of shock waves and deep oscillation on symptoms of lipedema.

In this episode, we discuss a study conducted by physicians in São Paulo, Brazil, titled Development of a Questionnaire and Screening Model for Lipedema, published in the Jornal Vascular Brasileiro in December 2020. The study details the creation of a highly accurate screening tool designed to predict a lipedema diagnosis, either through individual questions or the total score. With a 91% accuracy for the total score and up to 86% accuracy for individual questions, this tool is poised to assist medical providers worldwide, especially those uncertain about diagnosing lipedema.

This episode is an excerpt from my presentation at the Ketogenic Solutions for Lymphatic/Fat Disorders Virtual Symposium held on November 7-8, 2020. We delve into the theory that ancestral Lipedema women played a foundational role as the Mothers of our Species.

Today, I have an excerpt from a presentation by Dr. Georgia Ede at Lipedema Simplified’s April 2024 Heart to Heart virtual event: Keto and Beyond: Customizing Your Plan to Joyful Nutrition.
