The Digestive Reset

Framework

For Lipedema & Inflammation

A safe, step-by-step approach to calm inflammation, repair your gut, and improve food tolerance, without staying on a restrictive diet forever

Lipedema & The Gut Health Connection

If you’ve been told that your swelling and pain are “just part of lipedema,” you’re missing a critical piece of the puzzle: your gut health.

For many women with lipedema, hidden digestive imbalances quietly fuel inflammation, making it harder to reduce swelling, tolerate a variety of foods, or feel energized day-to-day.

The Lipedema Inflammation Loop looks something like this:

  • Chronic inflammation damages the gut lining.

  • Poor digestion feeds bacterial overgrowth.

  • Overgrowth drives more inflammation and swelling.

  • The cycle repeats, until you intervene.

This framework is designed to help you break that cycle.

Why Most Gut Protocols Fail for Lipedema

Mainstream “gut repair” approaches often miss the mark for women with lipedema.

They might:

  • Focus only on constipation without addressing the root cause

  • Add high-fibre foods too soon (which can trigger more bloating and discomfort)

  • Skip the critical repair phase of gut repair

  • Ignore bacterial overgrowth and leaky gut altogether

The result? You try a protocol…and end up right back where you started
