At FIBO 2023, the world's largest trade fair for health and fitness, I looked around as a trade visitor - always looking for new ideas that are also and especially useful and implementable for us lipoedema and lymphedema patients.

Sport and a healthy diet for lipedema - does not help, or does it?
“Exercise and a healthy diet are useless with lipedema.” You can hear such words in various places - or something like that. OK. Let's leave it that way.

The temperatures are rising, the hours of sunshine are increasing noticeably and more and more people are waking their bikes from their annual hibernation.
