Healthful Living in a Stressed-Out, Anxious World – Part 2
About This Event
Individuals are experiencing bouts of depression, and/or debilitating anxiety at an alarming rate, and the incidence is rising in the young adult and adolescence population since the pandemic. Chronic stressors and chronic anxiety influence health outcomes of those living with diseases such as CVD, cancer and Type 2 Diabetes. Chronic stress can also have a negative outcome on periodontal health. Lifestyle Medicine comprises four quadrants: Healthy Eating Healthy Weight, Active Living and Emotional Resilience. Discover the possibilities of how healthful living within each of these quadrants can help mitigate chronic stress, depression, anxiety and improve periodontal health. This dynamic CE webinar is divided into Part 1 and Part 2.
During this CE webinar, we will identify how Active Living and Emotional Resilience can reduce the impact chronic anxiety has on the body; identify four quadrants of ‘Lifestyle Medicine for the Mouth’ to preserve oral health; recognize the unique role the dental professional has as an advocate for healthful living strategies.
