The Sri Lankan Society of Lifestyle Medicine (SLSLM) was set up to promote the role of lifestyle medicine in clinical practice and thereby, improving people’s health and wellbeing. To this end, we strive to ensure evidence-based practice in the field of lifestyle medicine, while creating practice-based evidence.
The society was founded in 2019 by two medical doctors and a dentist with the aim of introducing the practice of lifestyle medicine and with the vision of creating a Sri Lanka free of non-communicable diseases. We are a discipline in modern medicine with a growing number of practitioners across the world. Our members include primary and secondary care clinicians, public health professionals, and researchers.
