Lifestyle Medicine Definition
The American College of Lifestyle Medicine, the Australian Lifestyle Medicine Association and the European Society of Lifestyle Medicine define Lifestyle Medicine (LM) as:
Lifestyle Medicine is a branch of evidence-based medicine in which comprehensive lifestyle changes (including nutrition, physical activity, stress management, social support and environmental exposures) are used to prevent, treat and reverse the progression of chronic diseases by addressing their underlying causes.
Lifestyle medicine is often prescribed in conjunction with pharmacotherapy and other forms of therapy.
Lifestyle medicine interventions include counseling, screening, and clinical application of lifestyle modifications (Therapeutic Lifestyle Changes, TLC).
