Soft drink Lifestyle medicine-certified clinicians are trained to apply evidence-based, whole-person, prescriptive lifestyle changes to treat and, when used intensively, often reverse common noncommunicable chronic diseases. Applying the six pillars of lifestyle medicine—a whole-food, plant-predominant eating pattern, physical activity, restorative sleep, stress management, positive social connections and avoidance or minimization of risky substances and behaviors--also provides effective prevention of these conditions.
Key Points:
- More than 300 ACLM members are pediatricians, several of whom serve in organization leadership roles.
- Lifestyle medicine-certified clinicians are trained to apply evidence-based, whole-person, prescriptive lifestyle changes to treat and, when used intensively, often reverse common noncommunicable chronic diseases.
- "We also know that children and adolescents who experience obesity are five times more likely to experience it as adults.

LOUIS, April 11, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The American College of Lifestyle Medicine (ACLM) has announced that the University of South Carolina School of Medicine Greenville (SOMG) and Loma Linda University School of Medicine (LLUSM) are the first to earn the highest recognition of a "Platinum Plus" certification designation for the significant level of undergraduate lifestyle medicine curricula within their programs.
Key Points:
- This level of lifestyle medicine curricula within medical schools supports graduates in achieving part of the prerequisites to become certified in lifestyle medicine by the American Board of Lifestyle Medicine (ABLM), following successful completion of the remaining prerequisites during residency training.
- Through ACLM's Undergraduate Medical Education (UME) Curriculum Certification process, students graduating from lifestyle medicine-certified medical schools are able to complete a portion of lifestyle medicine educational prerequisite hours (depending on their medical school's tier of certification) to go towards becoming certified in lifestyle medicine.
- "Loma Linda University School of Medicine is excited to accept this ACLM lifestyle medicine certification," said Brenda Rea, MD, DrPH, PT, RD, DipABLM, Lifestyle Medicine Intensivist, FACLM, program director of the Lifestyle Medicine Intensivist Fellowship at LLUSM.
- The first step toward earning certification in lifestyle medicine for a medical school is establishing a Lifestyle Medicine Interest Group (LMIG), a student- or trainee-led organization that addresses the need for lifestyle medicine at the academic and health systems level.

- ST. LOUIS, March 19, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- A new research case series published in Frontiers in Nutrition presents food as medicine as a potential treatment for autoimmune diseases, describing three patients with chronic autoimmune disease who showed remarkable improvement after following a predominantly raw dietary pattern high in cruciferous vegetables and omega 3 fatty acids.
- All three women reported that nearly all their symptoms of both diseases resolved after just four weeks of making the dietary changes.
- "My hope is that these cases generate greater recognition, making patients and clinicians aware of food as medicine as a treatment option for systemic lupus erythematosus and Sjögren's syndrome.
- This case series also reflects the immediate need for more research into dietary changes as a potential treatment strategy for autoimmune disease."
