Did you know men develop eating disorders too? Trust me, I know a guy! After years of hiding from the shouts of "Fatty" and "Porkchop" in the middle school locker room, Jason was determined to be a weight-loss success story. Only, Jason's newfound control over food didn't lead him to the picture-perfect ending he had envisioned. Following a health scare at twenty-nine, Jason turned to "clean eating" as his coping solution to the sudden loss of his parents, living in a run-down apartment, and broken family relationships. Starving for Survival explores how healthy eating can go from well-meaning improvements to knocking on death's door. Jason illustrates the damaging physical, mental, and social effects of orthorexia for men who may have been there, or for readers who suspect someone they love is struggling. Embracing vulnerability, Jason advances the conversation regarding men's mental health and the stigma that still exists today.¿

Autorenporträt
Jason Wood turned his battle with orthorexia into a mission to break the stigma around men's mental health and eating disorders by launching his blog Orthorexia Bites in 2021. Through numerous podcast appearances, speaking engagements, and his writing, Jason is starting an important conversation that encourages everyone--especially men-- on how important it is to speak up and get the help they deserve. When not advocating for mental health awareness, Jason enjoys cheering on his Hawkeyes and exploring his new home state of Colorado with his husband Matt and their pups, Arnie and Walter.
