ACQUISTA QUI I MATERIALI DEL KETOSIMPOSIO VIRTUALE INTERNAZIONALE DI ALIMENTAZIONE CHETOGENETICA PER IL LIPEDEMA
Consideriamo questa lectio magistralis una pietra miliare per la comprensione dei meccanismi della patogenesi del lipedema e una chiara motivazione al motivo per cui le nostre centinaia di pazienti non rispondono ai trattamenti per l’obesità, nemmeno ai più radicali e per indirizzare chiaramente ricerca e pratica clinica nel contenimento dell’infiammazione ed eliminazione della fibrosi.
Dal Canale YouTube della FDRS
Anche questa lectio magistralis del Dr. Stutz chiarisce quello che succede in un corpo affetto da lipedema e il motivo per cui il paziente affetto NON RISPONDE alle dietoterapie. Chiarisce che non è mai l’obesità a causare il lipedema, ma è vero il contrario.

Lipedema can be Life-Threatening: increased rate of suicide, depression and eating disorders. dr. joseph j. stutz #FDRS2016
In questo intervento in FDRS, il dr. Stutz parla di depressione, rischio di suicidio e disturbi alimentari nelle pazienti con lipedema. Le principali cause di disturbi psicologici e tentativi di suicidio sono il dolore cronico e i disturbi alimentari conseguenti al fallimento dietoterapico o alle umiliazioni subite in ambito sanitario dagli specialisti che non credono all’anamnesi alimentare riferita dal paziente.

A Healthy Diet and Exercise to Manage Lipedema with Amanda Arlauskas – The Lipedema University
Growing up I was always a little bit heavier, and then as I got past puberty, I started to realize I was really gaining weight. Not only was I gaining weight in my stomach region, but I noticed my legs were getting bigger too. And I just thought it was all a part of obesity. I thought I was a victim of obesity, and I started to accept that was who I was, though I was very unhappy and I wasn’t happy being that person, I started to accept that’s who I was.
A Healthy Diet and Practices for Lipedema with Katherine Miller – THE Lipedema University.
One of the things that I love about the Lipedema Project is that the message that’s being sent out is “it’s not your fault.” For one thing, doctors don’t know exactly what’s going on here. How could anyone else have known what they should have been doing in order to prevent a condition like that? So that’s number one, is just to start with a completely clean slate.
Managing Lipedema with Diet and Exercise with Kara Rittenhouse – THE Lipedema University.
I am currently in Charleston, South Carolina. I grew up in Massachusetts, started college there, kind of bounced around, and then went off to University of Hawaii, where I finished my bachelor’s. And then that’s where I met my husband. We have three kids, they were all born in Hawaii. Keao’s ten, Kai’s five-and-a-half, and Keanu is three. I noticed something was different with my legs going back to middle school time. My legs weren’t looking like my friends’ were looking, and I was starting to put some weight on, mostly in my legs and around my ankle area, which my other friends didn’t have. So this is the area right in here, and I get this line, almost like a cuff line. I don’t have any swelling here, I have regular here. For lymphedema, you’d pinch here and there’d be swelling and you could see it.
Lipedema & Food Sensitivities: Resource Center for Healthcare Professionals
Over 10% of all women worldwide have a medical condition called Lipedema. If you are a healthcare coach, nurse, therapist, doctor, trainer, or other holistic practitioner; you’re probably surprised to learn that 10% of the women YOU work with have this disease. Lipedema is under diagnosed, often confused with obesity, and not affected by calorie counting diets or exercise. It appears there’s a connection to Food Sensitivites. If you’re PASSIONATE about HELPING WOMEN, join me to find out how to coach these women and make a difference in their lives! It’ll make a difference in your practice!
I’m on a mission to make the women’s disease Lipedema a household name!

Supplements
Some practitioners recommend supplements that help decrease swelling or improve immune system function. The following recommendations come from Linda-Anne Kahn, President, Lymphatic Therapy Services of San Diego in CA, USA and a holistic health care practitioner who specializes in lymphedema and lipedema treatment.
Selenium: Selenium is a helpful supplement for lipolymphedema patients because of its ability to reduce swelling. Taking selenium can increase the effectiveness of physical therapy, reduce the risk of certain kinds of bacterial skin infections (erisypelasis), and lower the production of free radicals.
Bioflavonoids: Bioflavonoids are a subset of fragrant plant compounds known as coumarins. Lipedema patients take bioflavonoids to improve their cardiovascular and immune systems as well as their connective tissue function. Bioflavonoids help maintain healthy blood vessel walls and fend off free radicals, and may assist in connective tissue maintenance.
Vitamin P – Bioflavonoids: These water-soluble super-antioxidants (hesperidin, rutin, citrin, flavones, and flavonols) are found in citrus, broccoli, brussels sprouts, mangoes, and papayas.
Horse Chestnut Seed Extract: Horse Chestnut Seed Extract strengthens the lymphatic system, reduces swelling, and helps treat chronic venous insufficiency.
Quercetin: Quercetin is a flavonoid that supports cardiovascular health, helps regulate blood pressure, and protects against stress by suppressing the release of cortisol in the body.
Pycnogenol (Grapeseed Extract and French Maritime Pine): Pycnogenol is an antioxidant and a bioflavonoid. Its antioxidant properties protect against damage caused by free radicals, while its bioflavonoid properties reduce capillary leakage, perivascular inflammation, and subcutaneous swelling.
N-Acetyl Cysteine (NAC): NAC is an amino acid that acts as an antioxidant, preventing tissue damage by reducing free radicals.
Butchers Broom: Butchers Broom contains flavonoids that treat chronic venous insufficiency as well as reduce swelling in the legs.
Ubiquinone / Co-enzyme Q10: CoQ10 has antioxidant properties that prevent tissue damage.
Alpha-Lipoic Acid: Alpha-Lipoic acid is an antioxidant that fights free radicals. It is particularly useful to lipedema and lymphedema patients because it is both water-soluble and fat-soluble, so it can work effectively throughout the body.
Milk Thistle and Dandelion Root: Milk thistle and dandelion root both support healthy liver function.
Noni: Noni has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. It may inhibit the formation of blood vessels that contribute to lipomatosis, a condition in which benign tumors of fat tissue appear throughout the body.
Turmeric: Turmeric is an antioxidant with a wide range of anti-inflammatory properties.
Eleuthro Root and Rhodiola: These two trace minerals support healthy functioning of the adrenal glands.
Wobenzyme and Vitalzyme: These two systemic enzymes reduce fibrotic tissue and swelling in the body.
Conjugated Lineoleic Acid (CLA): CLA has been shown to decrease the volume of adipocytes (fat cells) and thereby reduce body fat.
Bucher’s Broom and Selenium Improve Lipedema: A Retrospective Case Study

Abstract
Background: Butcher’s broom plant extract has been reported to improve lymphatic flow and the trace mineral, selenium, has been shown to improve lymphedema. This retrospective case study examines the effectiveness of Butcher’s broom in conjunction with selenium to decrease limb volume of a patient with lipedema, a common fat distribution disorder with excess adipose tissue fluid.
Methods: Selenium (400 mcg) was initiated 6 days prior to limb volume evaluation utilizing perometry. The patient underwent physical therapy that consisted of manual lymph drainage (MLD) with Histological Variable Manual Technique (HIVAMAT), and compression bandaging. Butcher’s broom (one gram daily) was added on day 95 of treatment in addition to selenium and both were continued through day 293 (end of study).
Results: Total volume reduction over the study period for the left and right upper extremities and left and right lower extremities was 525 ml and 225 ml (p<0.05), and 1769 ml and 1614 ml (p<0.0001), respectively. The total percent volume reduction during the time period when MLD with HIVAMAT and compression bandaging were performed for the left and right legs was 70.6 and 79.0%, respectively. In the absence of compression bandaging, the left and right arms lost 21.2 and 10% of initial volumes, respectively at the 6 month follow-up visit. During the latter part of the study when the patient was performing a home maintenance program, at which time selenium and Butcher’s broom were continued, the left and right lower extremities decreased an additional 29.4 and 20.9% of initial volumes, respectively, despite a lack of exercise due to a foot injury during the last 46 days.
Conclusion: Butcher’s broom and selenium may offer new tools in conjunction with physical therapy to improve swelling and pain associated with lipedema.
