Doctors For Nutrition’s webinar addresses the question: What is lifestyle medicine?

In partnership with the International Board of Lifestyle Medicine (IBLM), Doctors For Nutrition is excited to offer the certification pathway for physicians and healthcare professionals in Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific Islands to become an IBLM Diplomate (dipIBLM).

Extending beyond the adoption of a whole food, plant-based eating pattern, Doctors For Nutrition also acknowledges the importance of the remaining five pillars of lifestyle medicine: physical activity, restorative sleep, stress management, avoidance of risky substances and positive social connection. These pillars play a crucial role in the effective prevention and management of chronic disease. The alignment between IBLM and Doctors For Nutrition reflects a shared vision of a world free from preventable disease, enabling everyone to thrive and live to their full potential.

Doctors For Nutrition would like to invite our audience to hear what leading experts on lifestyle medicine have to say about:

• What it means to practice lifestyle medicine
• What the certification framework entails
• What are the benefits of becoming certified for a medical practitioner.

The panelists also highlight latest research into the effectiveness of lifestyle medicine interventions and how practicing lifestyle medicine has benefited their patients.

The webinar comprises a live panel presentation followed by a Q&A session.
