The American College of Lifestyle Medicine (ACLM) announced the addition of digital nutrition resources to their accreditation process for healthcare professionals. The new requirements, which go into effect immediately, are designed to ensure that practitioners have the skills and knowledge necessary to provide comprehensive, patient-centered care.
The digital nutrition resources will be available through the ACLM website and include an online course, webinars, and a variety of other educational materials. Healthcare professionals who are interested in pursuing ACLM accreditation will be required to complete the online course and pass an exam. In addition, they will be required to attend one of the webinars and participate in an interactive case study.
The goal of the new accreditation requirements is to ensure that practitioners are able to integrate digital nutrition resources into their practice. With the rise of technological advances, including the widespread use of smartphones and apps, there is a growing need for healthcare professionals to be able to utilize these tools in order to provide the best possible care for their patients.
The American College of Lifestyle Medicine is the leading accreditation body for healthcare professionals specializing in lifestyle medicine. Lifestyle medicine is a scientific field that focuses on the prevention and treatment of chronic disease through changes in lifestyle and diet.
Digital nutrition resources are a valuable tool that can help healthcare professionals provide comprehensive, evidence-based care. The new requirements from ACLM will help to ensure that practitioners are prepared to meet the needs of their patients.
The American College of Lifestyle Medicine (ACLM) is excited to announce the addition of digital nutrition to its Board-Certified Specialist in Lifestyle Medicine (BCSLM) credential. Now, not only can health coaches, registered dietitians, and others in the nutrition field help their clients make healthy food choices, but they can also use technology to do so.
Digital nutrition is a growing field that uses apps, tracking devices, and other tools to help people make healthier choices. Some apps simply track what you eat and how much you exercise, while others provide personalized recommendations and coaching.
Adding digital nutrition to the BCSLM credential recognizes the importance of using technology to improve health. It also acknowledges the growing body of evidence showing that digital nutrition tools can help people lose weight, eat better, and stick to their health goals.
Digital nutrition is a relatively new field, and there are still many questions about how best to use it. But the ACLM is confident that it can help people live healthier lives, and we are excited to offer this credential to those who want to use technology to improve their health and the health of their clients.
