The two national well known lifestyle medicine physician and pioneers, Dr. Neal Barnard and Dr. Hans Diehl along with other physicians will present several topics in Rochester.

Both guest speakers have successful evidence-based lifestyle medicine education programs to prevent and even reverse chronic diseases that are lifestyle related for decades. Dr. Neal Barnard will also present to the Cardiovascular Prevention Program and FM grand rounds at Mayo Clinic beside the presentations in the public. We believe the empowerment of education in promoting healthy lifestyle is the effective way to address the health disparity in undeserved population.

Therefore, several events are Free through 3/15 at 125 LIVE and Rochester Public Library.

A series of presentations on 3/16 at the Symposium are for health care professionals, employee health and HR professionals, and students at Health Sciences. Winona State University will issue 0.6 CEUs or 6 contact hours upon the completion of the whole day event.

A Community of Wellness Celebration Gala at Rochester Art Center will be the finale to wrap up the whole week event.
