The Textbook of Lifestyle Medicine provides foundational knowledge essential to students and scientists across various disciplines to better understand this new area of research and practice. Incorporating the latest evidence-based research on the relationships between lifestyle factors and disease, this unique book discusses the practical tools necessary to address growing public health crises such as obesity, cancer, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease using a holistic approach to physical, mental, and spiritual wellness.
