In addition to the manual, the board review course includes 10 sections, 12 online review lectures by lifestyle medicine experts and 180 review questions. In all, the course provides 30 hours of CME\/CE and is a comprehensive course that builds a foundation for practicing lifestyle medicine. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The board review course reviews the pillars of evidence-based lifestyle medicine \u2013 optimal nutrition, physical activity, restorative sleep, stress management, positive social connections and avoidance of risky substances \u2013 and how to prescribe them to treat and reverse chronic diseases, while also providing effective prevention. The course is applicable for physicians, advance practice registered nurses, physician associates, registered dietitian nutritionists, pharmacists, physical therapists and other health professionals working in chronic disease treatment and prevention, as well as clinicians in training.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe course offers a truly comprehensive exploration of every facet of a lifestyle-based approach, firmly grounded in robust, evidence-based principles,\u201d said Ellen Tomazeli, RN, BSN, DipACLM,, who completed the course. \u201cI now feel not only well-informed but also confidently supported in my endeavor to implement these principles in my own life and when working with patients.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-broad-range-of-experts-nbsp\">Broad range of experts&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Dr. Bonnet, who is also trained in sports medicine and exercise science, first became involved with the board review course as a subject matter expert for the physical activity section. He later stepped in to succeed as co-lead faculty of the course with Jeni Shull Clayton, MD, MPH, DipABLM, FACLM, when the ACLM founding president and founding co-lead faculty for the course, John Kelly, MD, MPH, LM Intensivist, FACLM, stepped down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the course\u2019s strengths is the broad range of clinical subject matter experts in addition to lifestyle medicine, such as internal medicine, preventive medicine, family medicine, obesity medicine, psychiatry, sleep medicine, toxicology, sports medicine and health and wellness coaching.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBeing able to recruit multiple experts within each domain allowed us to comprehensively capture the latest research in each section and strategically translate that information to the learner,\u201d Dr. Bonnet said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-soaring-interest-nbsp\">Soaring interest&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Interest in lifestyle medicine is growing. Since ABLM started certification in 2017, almost 6,700 physicians and health professionals have earned certification in lifestyle medicine worldwide. More than 9,000 individuals have enrolled for the LMBR. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some individuals who took the course discovered it after registering for 5.5 hours of complimentary CME\/CE coursework offered by ACLM to 200,000 health care professionals in collaboration with the White House Conference on Hunger, Nutrition and Health. Almost 40,000 individuals have already registered for the Lifestyle Medicine &amp; Food as Medicine Essentials Course.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sarah&nbsp;Arcement, MPAS, PA-C, DipABLM, said that before she completed the board review course she felt overwhelmed at work and registered for the Essentials course at the suggestion of a colleague.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cLifestyle medicine reminded me why I wanted to practice medicine in the first&nbsp;place, and inspired me to learn more,\u201d she said. \u201cUsing lifestyle medicine techniques on myself and my patients has helped me heal some of the moral injury of contemporary practice.\u202fIt has improved my quality of life and work tremendously.\u202fWithout a doubt, I am a happier, more effective provider having gained this knowledge.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-goal-nbsp\">The goal&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As clinicians gain valuable insights into the evidence supporting lifestyle medicine, they will feel compelled to share that information with patients, Dr. Bonnet said. The course provides clinicians in all specialties valuable foundational knowledge, clinical tools, assessments and other resources to help them integrate lifestyle medicine into their practice.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe goal is for lifestyle medicine to be the foundation of health and of healthcare,\u201d he said. \u201cAs clinicians learn more about the power of lifestyle medicine, I think it is inevitable that its utilization will increase. This benefits the patient, provider, and community alike.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why use the Lifestyle Medicine Board Review Course to prepare for certification?&nbsp; The board review course includes a 350-page board review manual, 10 sections, 12 online review lectures by lifestyle medicine experts and 180 review questions. &nbsp;By Alex Branch,ACLM Director of Communications April 9, 2024 There is a book on his shelf that Jon Bonnet, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[84,83],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-18930","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-certification","category-education"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.4 (Yoast SEO v26.4) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Why use the Lifestyle Medicine Board Review Course to prepare for certification?
