Ketogenic Way of Eating (WOE) for Lipedema
Thank you so much for your interest!
We are excited that you are here and hope you find this information useful.
Our purpose is to support the learning, discussion and practice of the Ketogenic Way of Eating for those with lipedema.
A ketogenic diet is high fat, moderate protein, and very low carb (LCHF) that produces a state of ketosis, changing your system from a glucose burning one (produced by carbs) to fat burning.
One way of eating will not work for everyone.
That’s evident by the abundant diets and vicious cycles of diet/regain/diet again that most of us have tried again and again.
We are here to explore the KETOGENIC WAY OF EATING (Keto WOE).
Above all, we hope you find answers here, as we journey together on this path of healthy eating, healing and hopefully breakthroughs.
