Medicine-Pediatrics
About Us
Lifestyle Medicine is grounded in the idea that most chronic disease risk—nearly 80%, according to the American College of Lifestyle Medicine (ACLM) —is related to daily lifestyle behaviors rather than genetics. This approach emphasizes getting to the root of the problem andhealing through making changes in daily habits that support your health goals.
We focus on the Six Pillars of Lifestyle Medicine, defined by ACLM:
- Nutrient-dense, whole-food, predominantly plant-based nutrition
- Regular physical activity and strength
- Restorative sleep
- Stress management and resilience
- Supportive social connections
- Avoidance of risky substances
These pillars guide the way we care for patients and structure every clinical program we offer.
