Lipedema and Ketogenic Diets with Low Carb Expert Siobhan Huggins! 656
Manage episode 426915335 series 2814753
Siobhan Huggins is an independent researcher with interests in cholesterol metabolism, inflammation, and metabolic diseases.
She first went on a ketogenic diet for weight loss in August of 2016, and found that it resulted in numerous physical and mental health benefits. After meeting former podcast guest Dave Feldman at Ketofest 2017, Siobhan's passion for lipidology was ignited and she was driven to research all she could in an attempt to figure out how lipids were involved in the immune system and chronic diseases.
After losing 80 pounds, she referred to a lipedema specialist for a possible diagnosis, which sparked her interest in the condition as a whole and the people it affects every day. She was finally diagnosed with lipedema in 2021, and she promptly joined the board of the Lipedema Project as a Research Specialist.
She presents at various conferences on lipedema pathophysiology and the mechanisms of why ketogenic diets may be uniquely beneficial for managing lipedema symptoms and progression. She has since written several published articles on many platforms, including on Dave Feldman’s Cholesterol Code website.
