Book overview

For years, books on diet and wellbeing have been written by and for straight and cis people. It's time for that to change.

This book recognizes the unique health needs of LGBTQ+ people, and the ways identity, social pressures, access to care and lived experience shape the way we eat, feel and heal.

Award-winning nutritionist Daniel O'Shaughnessy draws on personal and professional experience to explore how being queer can affect your health and nutritional needs. He offers practical advice on weight loss and muscle gain, digestive health issues, substance use and addiction, sexual health, HIV support, mental health, fertility, nutrition for balancing hormones while transitioning, and how to mitigate against the party lifestyle. Every person's needs are unique, and every person deserves wellbeing advice that includes every part of their identity.
