Description
The Remission of Type 2 Diabetes and Reversal of Insulin Resistance with Lifestyle Medicine course, offered by the American College of Lifestyle Medicine (ACLM), and led by founding ACLM president and ABLM certified LM Intensivist, reviews the epidemiology, risk factors, and current medical approach to preventing and treating all forms of diabetes. Expert faculty in the fields of diabetes and lifestyle medicine address the scientific literature that supports the treatment, remission, and prevention of type 2 diabetes and insulin resistance. Most importantly, the application of lifestyle medicine methods, guidelines, tools, and monitoring standards will be explained in order to enable healthcare practitioners to successfully apply lifestyle medicine techniques in their practices to treat, prevent, and achieve remission of type 2 diabetes and reversal of insulin resistance for their patients.
