If you’re like me when I first heard the expression LIFESTYLE MEDICINE, you may be wondering what it is.

THE ANSWER…based on the recognition that lifestyle plays a central role in many chronic disease conditions, it uses lifestyle changes within conventional medicine to lower the risk for chronic disease or as a complement in an optimum health management plan.

Though my professional training, I use this approach to help you prevent and reverse serious health problems, such as obesity, diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, elevated cholesterol, migraines, arthritis and other chronic conditions.

• Treats individual risk factors
• Goal is disease management
• Patient is often passive recipient of care
• Patient is not required to make big changes
• Responsibility falls mostly on the clinician
• Treatment is often short term
• Little consideration of the environment
• Medication is often the “end” treatment
• Emphasis is on diagnosis and prescription

For many of us, America is the “promised land” and “living the dream“ means you’ve achieved the “American Dream” of starting with little to nothing then making it big or up and out of the lower socioeconomic levels.

You’ve achieved that on the outside…and, now you aim to conquer the inside!

You’re prepared to try a different approach to nutrition and wellness…one that “crowds out“ your unhealthy habits. You’re ready to replace them with a bio-individual program that supports small but significant positive lifestyle changes.

And a COACH to guide and support YOU through the process.

Together we’ll partner medical care with advanced lifestyle medicine techniques to create a plan to help you revolutionize your health.
