Chuck Ehrlich: 10 Million Americans Have Lymphedema! What?

It's warm up music and chat for the first 30 minutes, then our show gets underway at 9am pacific, 12-noon eastern!

You may be at risk for lymphedema if you have chronic venous insufficiency, other venous disorders, heart disease, obesity, a cancer diagnosis (especially breast cancer, reproductive system cancers, or melanoma), or a family history of lymphedema or swollen legs. Eating wisely and maintaining a healthy body weight can help reduce your risk of developing lymphedema symptoms.

Chuck Ehrlich is co-author of Lymphedema and Lipedema Nutrition Guide. This guide includes all the information you need for changing your eating pattern including ways to increase your motivation and build support for changing your eating pattern, meal plans and recipes for recommended foods, a shopping guide, cooking tips, suggestions for eating away from home, and much more. It also includes detailed information on lymphedema and lipedema including risk factors, signs and symptoms, treatment, other health care considerations and over 40 photos showing stages of each condition.
