Can Nature Really Heal Us? The Science Behind Lifestyle Medicine
In this episode, we explore how nature itself — through movement, nourishment, connection, and rest — can act as powerful medicine. Grounded in the six pillars of lifestyle medicine, we break down how daily habits can prevent, treat, and even reverse chronic diseases like heart disease, diabetes, and hypertension.
You’ll learn:
- How a plant-forward diet reduces inflammation
- Why movement (especially outdoors) supports brain and heart health
- How stress reduction lowers cortisol and boosts longevity
- The power of restorative sleep and substance reduction
- Why social connection is key to physical healing
This is your science-based guide to what it really means to let the body heal — with conditions rooted in nature, not just prescriptions.
