ADELAIDE will play host to the Nutrition and Lifestyle Medicine Symposium (NLMS) 2025, which will bring together leading global authorities in lifestyle and nutritional medicine to explore the latest trends and research.

Open to health professionals and the general public, the event will feature presentations and panel discussions on various elements of maintaining a healthy lifestyle and how it can play a transformative impact on population health and wellbeing.

Headlining the event will be a focus on whole food plant-based nutrition featuring latest research into how healthy eating can prevent and manage chronic diseases.

Healthcare professionals attending the event can earn Continuing Professional Development (CPD) hours to put towards their ongoing education and certification efforts.

"The symposium promises a dynamic program featuring internationally renowned speakers, interactive workshops, and the latest evidence-based research on plant-based nutrition and lifestyle interventions," organisers said.

Insights available to health professionals will include the latest clinical research and guidelines in medical nutrition, while connecting with a network of multidisciplinary clinicians and thought leaders.

A range of resources and case studies will also be on hand, along with practical ways to integrate lifestyle medicine into patient care.

Pharmacists will also be able to become certified lifestyle medicine practitioners by sitting an exam following the symposium.

The Nutrition and Lifestyle Medicine Symposium (NLMS) 2025 will be hosted by Doctors for Nutrition on 08 Nov at the University of Adelaide Health & Medical Sciences building, with selected sessions also taking place at off-site locations and others on subsequent days.

"Attendees will gain practical insights into preventing, managing, and even reversing chronic diseases through accessible, science-backed strategies," organisers added.
