Lifestyle Medicine
A Lifestyle Medicine approach to population care has the potential to arrest the decades-long rise in the prevalence of chronic conditions and their burdensome
costs. Diseases and conditions such as hypertension, heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, obesity andmultiple types of cancer are among the most common and costly of all health conditions—but they are also preventable. By focusing on the lifestyle choices that give rise to these diseases in the first place, patients and providers have better outcomes and satisfaction. Lifestyle medicine is the foundation for a redesigned, value-based and equitable healthcare delivery system, leading to whole person health.
