American College of Lifestyle Medicine

The American College of Lifestyle Medicine (ACLM) is leading a national movement to transform healthcare by addressing the root causes of chronic disease. Lifestyle medicine—a whole-person, evidence-based approach centered on nutrition, physical activity, sleep, stress management, substance avoidance, and social connection—is being advanced as a primary therapeutic strategy to prevent, treat, and reverse chronic conditions. ACLM equips clinicians and health systems with the education, certification, clinical tools, and research needed to deliver this care at scale. Through accredited learning, practice resources, advocacy, and a growing professional community, ACLM is accelerating the adoption of lifestyle medicine across clinical and worksite settings. We believe lifestyle medicine is the foundation of a more effective, equitable, and sustainable healthcare system.
