    I had lipodema all my life and never understood why I was so heavy in my hips and thighs I literally was two sizes bigger on my hips.
    Long story short I asked my GP who diagnosed me in 2022.
    I read sugar and gluten as a problem so I gave them up and changed to a Carnivore Diet (loads of vids Dr Ken Berry, Dr sean Baker, Beef and Butter Gal) and over eight months it reduced and I dropped two and a half stone and two trouser sizes. Im size 14 UK which ive not been since my teens I’m now in my sixties!!! I feel and look so much younger with way better energy levels.
    No sugar cravings after a few days.
    Lifelong clinical depression gone!
    I hope this helps someone. If I can do it anyone can! x

      Congratulations! I am doing keto and it has made a difference in the leg swelling. I try to do intermittent fasting 16/8, sometimes 18/6. I'm wondering if I do longer states of autophagy if it will help get rid of the bad fat cells/connective tissue disorder. Do you fast?

Your liver makes 75% cholesterol and is needed for the body to function.. There have been new studies done that show high cholesterol was NEVER BAD!.. It was pushed on us by a guy named Ansel Keys.. no clinical studies were done to prove cholesterol was bad.. He thought eating fat makes you fat and clog your arteries.. Go watch Dr Ken Berry about what cholesterol is or the other doctors on here.. Go research.. There are still some websites still pushing the lie about cholesterol is so bad..

    I have lipodema (only stage 1) and have greatly reduced swelling and problems through bike riding for exercise (1-1.5 hours several times a week, if not daily), and intermittent fasting 16 hours a day. I also stopped red meat and almost never eat chicken. I eat whole foods for the most part (occasional cheating on chips or a homemade cookie or sweet roll seems to be OK as long as it's rare). Never eat processed food. I lost 15 pounds without "dieting", I just eat well, don't eat after 7pm and fast until 11am., then I eat as much as I want. I have olive oil in my diet, eat lots of vegetables, beans, nuts, and fruits. I make homemade granola with healthy fats and a small amount of honey or maple syrup (it doesn't taste sweet, and I've gotten used to it because I make it crunchy and toasty and eat with apples and berries). I eased into all of the above over several years, and I don't think anyone can jump in and change heaven and earth and have it work. Begin by increasing the good and decreasing the harmful. Feeling good and being healthy reinforces good eating. Don't judge yourself, just try to do better the next day!

      @@lalitahalawar2198 not necessarily, could be a temporary swelling that resolves itself eventually, but can be warning sign for a few things... if you ever need t get a surgery involving removing a lymph node, let them know as you might easily get it.. good news there are tests they can give you before hand to see how susceptible you are and dont let them wave it away.. Other vascular problems also cause edema (swelling ) you also may have other things that need attention, and lastly there is a lot of undiagnosed lymphedema out there.. a lot.. some people have it for years and dont know it so if you have had a already a lymph node removed.. if you are swelling every day and it never quite resolves .. that is a real sign...in any case I would when traveling move and jump and shake your limbs as often as you can.

    I watched this a year ago and followed all the diet advice given plus daily lymphatic massage & exercise.
    I also used skin brushing, gua sha and short hot to cold showers over the year.
    I am utterly astonished at the results.
    I’ve had Lipedema since puberty mainly on my legs-mid thigh, knee, calf and ankle.
    No matter how slim my upper body, hips & Butt, my legs have always been like columns with no definition, fat at inner knees, shins, dorsal foot etc. I also had inner elbow fat
    Not only have I lost 26lb in weight this year, its gone from my knees & calves, shins & elbows and my limbs for the first time in my life look “Normal Shaped”
    My lovely Lipodema Friends, this is TOUGH to follow.
    But it WORKS!!!
    Ps. I stopped drinking alcohol completely and would recommend the same to others to get my results ie don’t just “reduce” alcohol. It’s so worth it.

      @@ciel1271 Yes I did. Along with Kombucha, and many other fermented vegetables. I focussed very much on the gut microbiome.
      Kefir & yoghurt are different to “Dairy” in general as they feed and change the gut microbiome. They nurture the Lymphatic system by reducing harmful gut bacteria and increasing good bacteria.
      Having a healthy gut microbiome also has stabilised my Relapsing Remitting Multiple Sclerosis, and works for all AutoImmune diseases.
      It’s incredibly powerful for good health and much cutting edge research is being done on the gut/brain relationship.
      Faecal transplants are being used from healthy individuals to sick ones to cure various Chronic Illnesses- an icky but exciting new area of medicine that is showing incredible results.
      It is possibly the future of medicine.
      If you are interested, just read more about the Gut Microbiome as many books & free info is available online

    All of this advice is perfect and right on point. I was born with primary lymphedema and wasn't diagnosed until I was four (4) I'm 50 now. Yes eating healthy and exercising is the best way that I have been able to maintain it and have lived a fun and active life. As a child I had experimental surgery because it was so rare,my family took me to many doctors. 1 included widening of the veins on the tops of my feet which eliminated a lot of the swelling on one side 70% and decreased it by 40% on the other. My legs do still swell, especially around that time of the month. Investing in a good shoes and keeping your feet clean and if you can pedicured. Lotion is A+ good for the skin and for getting massaged. I do my 6 zones and pedi myself. Feeling pampered, especially when you aren't sure what your legs will look like through the end of day is a blessing. Bottom line eating right will be normal eating. Promise you. Hopes this helps you feel better and stay positive.Stay beautiful and strong.

    Keto diet took care of it for me. I started getting bat wings and squishy cellulite when I was 12, and I grew up in a healthy household, we ate all homemade food, low fat, very little sugar. I became an exercise fiend at age 12, always dieted/ starved myself, under ate and over exercised. I finally went keto in my late 20s and the fat evaporated and I was a solid size 2-4 for about 15 years until life changing injuries happened. My exercise almost disappeared and I got sloppy about my eating and the bat wings came back. I have all of the co-symptoms: severe pcos and extremely high estrogen, also since I was about 12. I’ve had lots of systemic infections with swollen lymph nodes all over my body from childhood until I went keto. I’m finally getting more exercise again after 6 years of PT, doing more fasting, hoping to be normal again.

    Absolutely fantastic.
    This is what all our Drs / GPs / health care workers & schools in the UK should be teaching their patients / kids. As part of their most basic duty of care . They should be drilling this info into us all, because if we all had good regular advice from our GPs ect, about improving gut health & tell people better "WHY" they need to cut down on bad stuff because of its inflammatory effects on the body, then we'd all / most of us would be so much better off for it. PLUS it would help ease & save our NHS & all its related cost & quality related problems.

      Why would you think doctors would be so stupid as to give advice on healthy eating? That would eventually put them out of business, or at the very least reduce their salaries drastically. Of course they aren’t going to volunteer to do that. They love to stay rich making money off others’ misery. All of the idiots out there that put their trust and faith in the health care system like it’s actually there to help you. Stupidity and gullibility like that doesn’t deserve to be saved. So, the entire process is self-fulfilled poetic justice. 97% of humanity are just braindead zombies following whatever the person in front of them is doing. It will not change, and humanity as we know it is on its way out. And thank god, because we are an embarrassment to the universe.

But wrapping the with a thin foam.then over that long stretch bandages like aces bandages .whip first one way the the second counterclockwise so basically one goes clockwise the other counterclockwise like 4:30 in the morning here. you also need to see a vascular surgeon. I wouldn’t have surgery no way, but they are very helping in getting you wraps. You can also go with a Velcro wrap you have to be fitted for that we have auto insurance, so basically it pays for most of it except for the foam or is bandages. If you can afford it, some not all physical therapist know how to treat us oddly I went to Henry Ford Hospital in Michigan like four times. No one new what it Was. was a real nightmare. He had a home care nurse tell me it was because I ate broth one day and then I got lymphedema the next. I was miserable at the time and my sweet, sweet husband, who is kind, compassionate, loving,. when the nurse was ready to leave, my husband, Alex score deserve to the door, and he paused for a minute and told her don’t ever come back here. She was nasty to begin with. wish you all the luck in the world in God’s mighty blessings. Margie

    The high fat keto diet for 4 months caused me to get elevated cholesterol and triglycerides (319 & 230) and eventually lower leg and feet swelling. I was eating a VERY high fat diet. Roasted fatty pork belly and wings with the skin, lots of home made mayo with avocado oil, butter, ghee, coconut oil, nuts, avocado, I was chowing down on any fats I got my hands on. it was delicious, but it wasn't good for me.
    I was DX'd with lymphedema yesterday and will get corrective surgery on poor veins in my lower legs. Was glad to find this video.
    Beans are a great way to get rid of fat soluble toxins in the GI tract.
    If you've been eating a high fat diet, I think eating beans daily will lower your cholesterol rather fast.
    And this time I think I'll do a plant based diet, with eggs or fish 2x a week because it could save your life.

I’ve had 4 sentinel lymph nodes removed with a breast cancer lumpectomy and have berm terrified of getting lymphedema ever since. You’ve calmed my fears quite a bit as 10 years ago I switched to mostly vegan Whole Foods plant diet with plenty of big green salads, green smoothies and seeds, berries and beans. Occasionally eat animal products as a condiment, unfortunately desserts are a downfall on occasion as are tortilla chips at a restaurant. But my diet by far is more healthy than unhealthy. I also have regularly had at least 12 hours between dinner and breakfast for years. Funny how the most important things are under our own control snd doctors and even physical therapists don’t have a clue about diet being a major factor in this!! I’m grateful. Thank you.

The last 7 days I started taking L-arganine and Diosmin supplements, (these were the only ones I found available to Australia) and I have lost 3kgs! What is absolutely thrilling for me is it has all come off my lipo legs. I no longer have that start of lipo fat protruding from my hips and my legs are starting to take shape. Thank you so much!

      @@whisperingsage Yeah I tend to do better with animal fats and lower carbs but some people really can also find a non inflammatory diet with this method.. I think both agree on the sugar being the culprit and would be interesting to do tests showing that the sugars are the part of the equation...and whole foods with intermittent fasting works depending on personal metabolic and will have to be customized.

    We need livestock raised on diverse pasture. Products from livestock raised on diverse pasture ('weedy' is great) have more omega threes, fewer omega sixes than conventionally raised, CAFO livestock.
    If you purchase or raise livestock this way you have much healthier meats, eggs and dairy. If they are mob grazed on diverse pasture, even better.
    Studies show this.

    The only thing that really helped me was liposuction. (I am an exceptional healthy eater and used to exercise 4-5 times a week but nothing worked.) Now, 10 kg lighter, I’m feeling much better and even the swelling due to lymphedema decreased

      Cheryl Lynn my doctor said that research suggests it might be a hormonal issue , plus it’s hereditary....we just weren’t that lucky. Keeping my fingers crossed for your surgery. It’s so worth it!
