Nutritional Needs and Well-Being for the LGBTQIA+ Community provides readers with a comprehensive overview of nutritional health considerations for LGBTQI+ individuals. Recognizing the underrepresentation of LGBTQIA+ populations in healthcare research and the existence of numerous health disparities, this text bridges the gap in dietary and nutritional studies with an aim to cultivate inclusive and holistic care approaches.
The textbook progresses strategically, moving from broader theories and terminology to precise nutrition needs. An andragogical framework supports adult learning, encompassing practical application of knowledge through varied learning domains. Core sections explore foundational theories, key health risks and nutrition considerations for LGBTQIA+ communities, distinctive nutritional needs for transgender, non-binary, gender non-conforming, and intersex individuals, and concludes with evidence-based guidelines, resources, and best practices including case studies.
Nutritional Needs and Well-Being for the LGBTQIA+ Community is well suited for programs and courses in nutrition, dietetics, and public health, especially those with the goal of well equipping future practitioners with the knowledge and skills they need to support and advocate for LGBTQIA+ individuals through informed, sensitive dietary counseling and interdisciplinary healthcare collaboration.
