Learn More About Lifestyle Medicine

Lifestyle medicine is an evidence-based approach to preventing, treating, and even reversing chronic diseases—by focusing on the everyday habits that impact your health the most.

According to the American College of Lifestyle Medicine, it involves:

“The use of evidence-based lifestyle therapeutic interventions—including a whole food, predominantly plant-based eating pattern, regular physical activity, restorative sleep, stress management, avoidance of risky substances, and positive social connections—as a primary modality, delivered by clinicians trained and certified in this specialty.”
