Culinary Medicine and Lifestyle Medicine and the Power of Nutrient-Rich Additions

This article, authored by Full Plate Living Program Director, Amy Hanus, emphasizes the powerful synergy between Lifestyle Medicine and Culinary Medicine for optimizing Whole Person Care.

"Lifestyle Medicine addresses the root causes of chronic illness through proven pillars: movement, sleep, stress resilience, relationships, avoidance of harmful substances, and nutrition, the most frequently used clinical pillar. Culinary Medicine, as highlighted by the work of Hauser et al, brings the nutrition pillar to life by enabling practitioners to advise and to cook, plan, and guide food behavior. This integration is essential for providing comprehensive, transformative care."
