I recently saw Ken Berry talk about this condition. From this video and his, I believe my wife has lipedema. She's 67 and been heavily stuck in the medical establishment & not 1 doctor ever suggested that she might have it. Thankfully due to my research and nagging she's been eating mostly ketovore for the last couple of years, and she's getting healthier, after many years of horrible advise from her doctors who just throw pills, and procedures at her.
POWERFUL - grateful for the hope and knowledge shared by these gifted researchers. How I hope this takes fire in the medical community and gets to those suffering physically, emotionally and socially. It speaks hope to me for further healing to my body as I progress to health from a lifetime of morbid obesity (308 on 5’1” frame). I have lost 165 so far and have pockets of lipedema on my thighs. I will ramp up my keto focus with new inspiration and hope! I do low carb and fasting as a daily lifestyle now, and have found great healing and health. THANK YOU, LOW CARB DENVER!
These women are true experts that are treating people on the front lines. I'm sharing this info with others to try to spread this important information
I also watched Dr Ken Berry and Siobhan Huggins podcast..then seen this one. So many Doctors and Health Care staff have no clue. They need to trained in these conditions. I was diagnosed in 2020 at age 56 after many vein removal and vein closure surgeries only to find out many vein surgeries were "not" needed , they were so painful to my Lipedema areas on my legs. I never had any leg ulcers from lymphadema.... Antiinflammatory diet was recommended, I went gluten free. I'm now on basic Metteranian, gluten free diet yet add beef 2 x week. I am losing weight and measuring myself twice a month. I feel much better emotionally to😊 Will follow this podcast and share. Thank you
Thank you so much. I am 65. Based on your pictures, I am stage 3. ALL of my doctors over the years have blamed me and my lack of will power for my medical conditions and how my legs look. I wish this were mandatory training for all doctors. I now eat carnivore, I am seeing and feeling real results.
That is amazing to hear. My mother (82) has it, so do I (52)🙁 She had slim legs until her 30s but put on weight over the years and her lipedema got worse. She has only ever thought of herself as being ‘overweight’ she doesn’t seem to question why her fat is so lumpy compared to other people’s or why varicose veins have been an issue over 3 generations of women. I have questioned it, and concluded we likely have some type of EDS. I am probably at stage 1 and do not want to get worse to the point that she is now at. She is in a lot of pain. However, there is no point me even showing her this video as she only ever listens to what drs tell her.
I am constantly amazed at how much about human health is still yet to be discovered. How many people even know about the existence of lipedema? How many cases are (un/mis)diagnosed? I feel for these people. The stigma surrounding obesity and its comorbidities needs to end at once.

Isn’t it a disgrace how little our medical establishment knows other than how to prescribe medication.
Dr Berry's video was with Siobhan Huggins, the second presenter on this video.
@@jobrown8146 I will look for it.

Very clear presentation. Thank you for the information and hope.
Great job!!
Thank you for mentioning how PAINFUL lipedema can be… it’s more than enough eyesore…!😮
Sorry, I meant ‘just’ and my keyboard decided ‘enough’ would be better…! 😮
I too find it very painful. Doctors think I exaggerate for pity or attention.
