In the Lifestyle Medicine program, health professionals with relevant clinical licenses are empowered to provide lifestyle change interventions and promote healthy behaviors for patients with chronic diseases or patients at risk of chronic diseases while understanding the population determinants of wellness, health, and disease. The curriculum emphasizes interventions based on scientific data and established behavioral and learning theories that promote individual and public health through the processes of education, health behavior change, and health promotion. It is emphasized that health professionals who are not physicians are not enabled to practice medicine when awarded this degree.
