🚨🚨🚨

I am absolutely thrilled to share that our @MassGeneralNews #HealthyLifestyleProgram team has published our first set of results from a survey study on our #LifestyleMedicine #SharedMedicalAppointment program.

@MGHMedicine @MassGeneralMDs @MassGenBrigham @ACLifeMed Image @MassGeneralNews @MGHMedicine @MassGeneralMDs @MassGenBrigham @ACLifeMed Here's the gist:
* Lifestyle Medicine Virtual Group Visits (LMVGVs) can be implemented in health systems to address chronic disease care gaps.
* This study assessed whether patients’ attendance patterns at primary care-based LMVGVs were a/w self-reported changes in behaviors.

In a country that grows SO much food, it's unjust & unethical that this is real:

#PlantBased diets are at the cornerstone of every national rec for disease prevention, and yet...

Only 1/10 Americans eats the recommended amounts of fruits/vegetables.

cdc.gov/mmwr/volumes/7… And this is a pretty low bar...

The 2020-2025 Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend only 2 cups of fruits and 3 cups of vegetables daily!
