ST. LOUIS, Oct. 17, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The American College of Lifestyle Medicine (ACLM) today announced the sellout of its in-person 2025 Lifestyle Medicine Annual Conference, set for November 16-19, in person at the Gaylord Texan Resort in Grapevine, Texas, with more than 2,000 registered to attend. Registration for the virtual event, LM2025 Online, is still available and will remain open throughout the conference, with unlimited virtual registration capacity.

LM2025 Online includes a livestream of keynote presentations and on-demand access to the concurrent sessions, as well as interactive networking opportunities, access to a virtual exhibit hall, access to more than 200 research abstracts, digital scavenger hunt, exclusive backstage interviews with keynote speakers, free bonus content and six virtual-only post-conference workshops (at an additional fee). The online conference master of ceremonies for the second year will be Jonathan Bonnet, MD, MPH, FAAFP, FACLM, DipABLM.

The online event will showcase how lifestyle medicine is changing the paradigm of medical education and clinical practice, with a focus on chronic disease root cause interventions that deliver health restoration, as opposed to the disease management status quo. Blue Zones, LLC, the global leader in well-being solutions that help people live better, longer, is the Presenting Community Health Sponsor.

Virtual attendees can earn up to 45.25 credit hours of CME, CNE, CPE, CPEU, and CE if claimed within 60 days following the conference, though access to the recorded presentations is available for one year.

Online LM2025 registrants will include primary care and specialist MDs and DOs, physician associates, nurses, nurse practitioners, pharmacists, registered dietitians, exercise physiologists, physical therapists, occupational therapists, psychologists and other behavioral health professionals, health coaches, and other members of the interdisciplinary clinical practice team, as well as medical educators, healthcare executives, students, medical residents, researchers and others seeking to learn more about the growing field of lifestyle medicine and/or establish or expand lifestyle medicine clinical practices.

Dr. Bonnet explains the benefits of joining the conference online. "It's the flexibility to watch or listen to the content on your schedule," he said. "You can still spend half a day with patients or tune in during your administrative time. If you're busy with kids and family activities, you could watch later at night, listen on the drive to work, or listen while on a walk. There are just a lot more options for how you consume the material that fit nicely into very busy work schedules and lifestyles."

Enthusiasm for both the in-person and online event is continually reflected year after year in post-conference surveys and testimonials.
