Lifestyle medicine is a medical approach that uses evidence-based behavioral interventions to prevent, treat and manage chronic disease.
Governed by the American College of Lifestyle Medicine, this medical specialty uses therapeutic lifestyle interventions as a primary modality to treat chronic conditions. Lifestyle medicine applies evidence-based, whole person, prescriptive lifestyle change to treat and, in some cases, reverse such conditions. There are six pillars of care for treatment and prevention.
