Queer Wellness Unpacked Ep. 1

Queer Wellness Unpacked Ep. 1 | Nourished With Tish

So I have some pretty exciting news!

I decided to create a podcast. Honestly, this has been something I’ve been thinking about for a while now, so I’m really excited to finally share Queer Wellness Unpacked.

This podcast will be a deep dive into all the topics I hold dear to me: diet culture, weight stigma, sexuality, hormones, reproductive health and social justice issues…Just to name a few. I wanted to create a space to talk about the health issues that I think as a society we tend to shy away from.

I might be a nutritionist. But I’m also a bisexual woman. And, believe it or not, that absolutely influences my relationship with health and my body.

For example, hormone health discussions tend to cater to cis women (women’s health often doesn’t feel super inclusive of trans and non-binary people, who may also struggle with period health or hormonal imbalances).

Reproductive and sexual health usually centres on heterosexual relationships.

Diet culture (and the beauty standards that come with it) upholds sexist and racist ideology that perpetuates weight stigma.

I wanted there to be something else. Something that felt inclusive. And realistic. Health without the diet culture BS that makes my nose crinkle in annoyance.

And so, Queer Wellness Unpacked was born.

You can check out my first episode below!

Dairy & hormones—friend or foe? There’s a lo Dairy & hormones—friend or foe? 

There’s a lot of mixed info out there, but here’s the truth:

❌ Dairy doesn’t *always* mess with hormones.

✅ Some people are sensitive to it, while others digest it just fine.

✅ Full-fat dairy (like yogurt) has probiotics, calcium & vitamin D—which can actually help PMS!

The key? Listen to your body. If dairy triggers symptoms like bloating or cramps, you might want to try temporarily cutting it out to see how you feel.

But if you’ve been told you need to cut out dairy for your hormone health, just know there’s a lot of benefits to incorporating it into your diet! #hormonehealth #integrativenutrition #periodproblems
✨ Can diet help with endometriosis? ✨ Endomet ✨ Can diet help with endometriosis? ✨

Endometriosis affects about 10% of women and people assigned female at birth worldwide, and is one of the most common causes of pelvic pain for women of reproductive age.

While we still need more research in this area, some foods might be helpful in lowering inflammation, getting rid of extra estrogen and avoiding the triggers that make endometriosis symptoms worse. 

✨Did you know?✨ 

There’s a link between IBS and endometriosis: they often co-exist together. If you struggle with symptoms like bloating or stomach pain, it might be worth checking for food intolerances, celiac disease or IBS.
