Practice involves the use of evidence-based therapeutic approaches, such as eating a predominantly whole food, plant-based diet, getting regular physical activity, adequate sleep, managing stress, avoiding use of risky substances and pursuing other non-drug modalities, to treat, reverse, and prevent chronic disease.
General Objectives of the Lifestyle Medicine Interest Group:
- Foster a space for students, faculty, and professionals who are interested in LM for connecting and professional advancement
- Promote healthier lifestyles in the NYUGSOM community and local community through LM education and activities
- Establish or improve LM curriculum at NYU Grossman through advocacy.
