Chapter 1: Introduction and Review of Lifestyle Medicine Concepts
IN THIS LESSON
Welcome to Chapter 1 of this course!
In this video, Hazel will introduce the course, explaining the outline, content and objectives showing clearly what you will gain from this course. There will then be a short review of the concepts of lifestyle medicine to set the wider scene. What is lifestyle medicine, it’s scope and approach? How does it compare to conventional medical approaches and frameworks and why is this so important? We will also cover how, because of it’s approach, it is very well placed to tackle the worrying rising chronic symptoms and diseases that we see in society today. This will set the wider scope of this course, where the “environment and toxins” pillar is explored in more detail.
