Lifestyle medicine can address up to 80% of chronic diseases. 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.  Lifestyle medicine is the foundation for a redesigned, value-based and equitable healthcare delivery system, leading to whole person health. Unhealthy lifestyle choices underlie many chronic diseases such as heart disease, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, stroke, obesity, osteoporosis, and many cancers. By promoting healthy lifestyle choices, Lifestyle Medicine treats the root issue of these diseases, not just the symptoms. Time has changed and the trend of lifestyle-related diseases are exponentially growing but health care providers are slowly adopting the integration of evidence-based lifestyle medicine in their clinical practice.

By getting certification for Lifestyle medicine, you are demonstrating your competency, providing value-based health care and also not only taking part of global movement.
