A 7-month Mediterranean-style ketogenic diet (<50g carbohydrates/day) in women with lipedema significantly reduced body weight (86.1→74.1 kg), body fat, visceral fat, thigh and calf circumferences, and systemic inflammation markers (hs-CRP and IL-6), with reductions attributed to nutrient composition rather than caloric restriction alone.
