Queering Nutrition and Dietetics: LGBTQ+ Reflections on Food Through Art
by Phillip Joy and Megan AstonThis book presents experiences of LGBTQ+ people relating to food, bodies, nutrition, health, wellbeing, and being queer through critical writing and creative art. The chapters bring LGBTQ+ voices into the spotlight through arts-based scholarship and contribute to experiential learning, allowing for more understanding of the lives of LGBTQ+ people within the dietetic profession. Divided into three parts, the first explores eating, food, and bodies; the second discusses communities, connections, and celebrations; and the final part covers care in practice. Topics include body image, eating disorders, weight stigma, cooking and culinary journeys, queer food culture, queer practices in nutrition counseling, and gendered understandings of nutrition. Exploring not only experiences of marginalization, homophobia, transphobia, and cisheteronormativity within dietetics and nutritional healthcare, this collection also dives into the positive connections and supportive communities that food can create. Special attention is paid to the intersections of oppression, colonialism, social justice, and politics. This book will be beneficial to all health professionals, educators, and students creating and fostering safer, more inclusive, and more accepting environments for their LGBTQ+ clients.
Quema tu dieta: Pierde grasa y mejora tu rendimiento con rigor y ciencia
by Ismael GalanchoPierde grasa y gana salud con un método efectivo y riguroso basado en la alimentación flexible. ¿Por qué engordamos? ¿Por qué antes culpábamos a las grasas y ahora a los carbohidratos? ¿Por qué fracasan las dietas? ¿Por qué nos estancamos? Ismael Galancho desmitifica creencias sobre nutrición basadas en la cultura de la dieta y ofrece un plan para la pérdida de grasa que responde y se adapta a las necesidades individuales de cada cual, con objetivos factibles y mayor flexibilidad, frente a enfoques rígidos como la dieta cetogénica, la dieta paleo o el real food. Tras una larga trayectoria trabajando con deportistas de élite, Ismael demuestra que no existe una dieta válida para todos y para todo. La clave del éxito es diseñar un programa personalizado que te ayude a desarrollar hábitos duraderos y mantener así tus objetivos a largo plazo.Quema tu dieta fomenta una relación saludable con la comida y ofrece mayor libertad en la elección de alimentos.

Quench: Beat Fatigue, Drop Weight, and Heal Your Body Through the New Science of Optimum Hydration
by Dana Cohen Gina BriaChronic headaches...brain fog...fatigue...weight gain...insomnia...gut pain...autoimmune conditions. We may think these and other all-too-common modern maladies are due to gluten intake or too much sugar or too little exercise. But there is another missing piece to the health puzzle: Proper hydration. Yes, even in this era of Poland Spring many of us are dehydrated due to moisture lacking diets, artificial environments, medications, and over-dependence on water as our only source of hydration. For this reason, that new diet or exercise plan may fail because our body doesn't have enough moisture to support it.Quench presents a wellness routine that can reverse all of that, based on breakthrough new science in the field of hydration. Readers will be surprised to learn that drinking too much water can flush out vital nutrients and electrolytes. Here is where "gel water" comes in: the water from plants (like cucumber, berries, aloe), which our bodies are designed to truly absorb right down to the cellular level. In fact, Ms. Bria's work as an anthropologist led her to the realization that desert people stay hydrated almost exclusively from what they eat, including gel plants like cactus.Based on groundbreaking science from the University of Washington's Pollack Water Lab and other research, Quench offers a five-day jump start plan: hydrating meal plans and the heart of the program, smoothies and elixirs using the most hydrating and nutrient-packed plants. Another unique feature of their approach is micro-movements-small, simple movements you can make a few times a day that will move water through your fascia, the connective tissue responsible for hydrating our bodies. You will experience more energy, focus, and better digestion within five days...then move onto the lifetime plan for continued improvements, even elimination of symptoms.
