“Your comfort matters”: Analyzing the Visual and Textual Rhetoric of an Instagram Labiaplasty Advert
Advertising on social media is an important and pervasive form of modern discourse. Through description and critical analysis, this piece unpacks the textual and image-based messages inscribed within and through an Instagram advert for labiaplasty. I argue that the advert is both grounded in—and perpetuates—neoliberal ideals of self-improvement and “self-care” and patriarchal notions of neat and controlled “feminine” bodies. Although this article…

The aim of our mixed methods study was to assess feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of incorporating a whole-person care model of health coaching into an employee wellness program (i.e., weight loss, smoking cessation) that is made available by an emp…
Incorporating an Increase in Plant-Based Food Choices into a Model of Culturally Responsive Care for Hispanic/Latino Children and Adults Who Are Overweight/Obese
Introduction: The national rate of obesity in US Hispanic/Latinos exceeds all other major ethnic subgroups and represents an important health disparity. Plant-based diet interventions that emphasize whole plant foods with minimal processing and less refined grains and sugar have shown great promise in control of obesity, but there is a paucity of data translating this treatment effect to disparate populations. The objective of our study was to ev…
