Introducing the 15-Day Whole-Food Plant-Based Jumpstart
A simple, structured, physician-led program designed to help you:
Improve key lab markers in as little as 15 days
Reduce or eliminate medications (with your doctor’s guidance)
Lose weight without calorie counting
Build habits you can actually sustain
No fads. No gimmicks.
Just evidence-based nutrition and real support.
Real Patients. Real Cases. Real Results.
Each month, Lifestyle Medicine Grand Rounds (LMGRs) brings clinicians together to learn from real patient cases, presented by peers and discussed with experienced lifestyle medicine physicians.
You’ll hear how complex medical cases are approached in real practice, including nutrition strategy, behavior change, and medication management. Sessions are interactive, practical, and designed to build confidence in treating root causes—not just symptoms.
LMGR is free medical education, open to the public, with CME credit available for clinicians.
