About the series
Project Remission: A Lifestyle Medicine Approach to Type 2 Diabetes
Project Remission: A Lifestyle Medicine Approach to Type 2 Diabetes is a new digital series created by the American College of Lifestyle Medicine (ACLM) in partnership with Content With Purpose (CWP).
The series explores how evidence-based lifestyle medicine is transforming the way type 2 diabetes is treated, shifting care from long-term disease management toward health restoration. Type 2 diabetes affects millions of people and places a significant burden on patients, clinicians, health systems, and employers. Growing evidence shows that therapeutic lifestyle interventions, when appropriately prescribed and delivered, can treat and, when used intensively, often achieve remission of type 2 diabetes while improving quality of life and clinical outcomes.
Through short documentaries, expert interviews, and real-world case studies, Project Remission highlights how clinicians, health systems, educators, and organizations across the U.S. are integrating the six pillars of lifestyle medicine into clinical practice. The series examines advances in education, certification, care delivery models, and system-level integration, demonstrating how lifestyle medicine supports whole-person health, enhances clinician satisfaction, and strengthens healthcare systems.
Together, these stories provide context and clarity on how lifestyle medicine is reshaping the treatment paradigm for type 2 diabetes, positioning remission as an achievable goal when evidence-based interventions are applied with rigor and consistency.
