Welcome to another episode of Flip Your Script, a vodcast by the American College of Lifestyle Medicine, hosted by ACLM President Dr. Padmaja Patel. In each episode, we explore five key takeaways on how lifestyle medicine is helping clinicians and innovators reimagine the future of healthcare.
This episode, “Breaking the Stigma: Real Talk on Men’s Health,” features leaders from ACLM’s Men’s Health Member Interest Group — Dr. Kevin Billups, Dr. Marc Paulos, and Dr. Scott Mirani — as they discuss how lifestyle medicine can address some of the most pressing and often unspoken issues in men’s health.
Together, they explore the intersection of mental, metabolic, and sexual health, sharing how open conversations about erectile dysfunction, body image, and emotional well-being can create pathways to healing and connection. The discussion also highlights how lifestyle medicine interventions offer powerful tools to improve men’s overall quality of life and reduce chronic disease risk.
Through this conversation, you’ll hear how these clinicians are flipping the script on traditional men’s health care by tackling stigma, empowering men to seek support, and redefining what strength and resilience truly mean.
If you’re interested in how lifestyle medicine is reshaping men’s health through empathy, education, and evidence-based care—this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

The American College of Lifestyle Medicine (ACLM) is the medical professional society for physicians and other professionals dedicated to clinical and worksite practice of lifestyle medicine as the foundation of a transformed and sustainable healthcare system.
Lifestyle medicine is a medical specialty that uses therapeutic lifestyle interventions as a primary modality to treat chronic conditions including, but not limited to, cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, and obesity.
Lifestyle medicine-certified clinicians are trained to apply evidence-based, whole-person, prescriptive lifestyle change to treat and, when used intensively, often reverse such conditions. Applying the six pillars of lifestyle medicine—a whole-food, plant-predominant eating pattern, physical activity, restorative sleep, stress management, avoidance of risky substances, and positive social connections—also provides effective prevention for these conditions.
