TY - JOUR AU - R. M. Rosenfeld AU - M. L. Grega AU - M. Gulati A1 - AB - This review is based on a presentation at the 2024 Annual Meeting of the American College of Lifestyle Medicine (ACLM), which showcased ACLM's first clinical practice guideline on Lifestyle Interventions for Treatment and Remission of Type 2 Diabetes and Prediabetes in Adults. Our goal is to offer pragmatic implications of the guideline for everyday patient care, including case presentations showing how the guideline recommendations (key action statements) can be implemented. The target audience is any clinician or healthcare professional in a community or outpatient healthcare setting involved in managing non-pregnant adults with T2D, prediabetes or a history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Unique features of the ACLM guideline include placing lifestyle interventions as the foundation of T2D management and prevention, offering strategies for sustained behavior change, and emphasizing all six pillars of lifestyle medicine: plant-predominant nutrition, regular physical activity, restorative sleep, stress reduction, social connectedness, and avoiding risky substances. This review is not intended to substitute for the full guideline, which should be read before doing the recommended actions.
