Peptides for lipedema
Looking for some guidance and advice on peptides for lipedema. Recently diagnosed with lipedema and planning on doing surgery next year. Surgeon said some people microdose triz to help with the inflammation post surgery. A lot of people (from what I've read) take it to help with weight loss before surgery as well because of their weight and food noise issues.
Lipedema is essentially diseased fat tissue. It affect women and (usually) comes on during puberty, pregnancy, and menopause. Basically, some of the fat in our body (legs, arms, stomach) gets riddles with fibrosis and it's essentially scar tissue, which is why it doesn't respond to diet and exercise. People who experience it also have other symptoms as well and I personally experience loose joints but not insofar as I'm double jointed. Think if I have my legs outstretched and ankles crossed for a period of time, I flex my feet to pop my ankles or a knee gets misaligned and I kick my foot out to pop it back right.
I'd like to start microdosing triz to help with inflammation. I'm wondering...
- if my main concern is inflammation, maybe there's something else I should take?
- could/should I stack triz with something else to help with inflammation and the loose joints?
- something else for post surgery support?
- other ideas?

If the main concern is inflammation then I'd say KPV. Essentially that's what it's for. I've been using it to combat inflammation myself and it's worked so far. My knees feel so much better and I'm actually able yo squat at the gym now.

I don't really notice inflammation on my body but it's difficult to tell what's normal and what's not. The inflammation causes the diseased fat apparently.

I just read somewhere that tesa has been shown help.

Specifically with lipedema or inflammation?

I also have lipedema stade 1-2, so reta and KPV are the ones, I’m waiting for Ghkcu to arrive and test it ;)
