We live in a time where “lifestyle diseases” like obesity, Type II diabetes and heart disease have, unfortunately, become the norm rather than the exception. In fact, the World Health Organization estimates that “Under-and over-nutrition and diet-related chronic diseases account for more than ½ of the world’s diseases.” The National Cancer Institute estimates that 35-60% of cancers worldwide are related to diet alone. With these statistics in mind, we must all recognize that we are active participants on this health and wellness journey and must begin practicing prevention.  We no longer have the luxury to wait for a personal health crisis before deciding to eat healthier and exercising.

For the very first time in Jacksonville, a program of dietary and lifestyle excellence called “Wellness for Life” will be offered to the public. “Wellness for Life” & the 100% DIET offers a safe, effective complementary treatment for diabetes, heart disease, obesity, weight loss, chronic pain management, depression, anxiety, sleep disorders – to name a few. All recommendations and information provided are not from the latest “fad” diet, but rather from longitudinal epidemiological studies on the longest lived, the latest scientific research articles as well as pioneers in the field of nutritional medicine that have published evidence for nutritional intervention, treatment and prevention of a multitude of health related conditions.

Dr. Repole and staff will guide you through a proven, common sense, one-on-one health and wellness program that takes the confusion and difficulty out of healthy eating and living.
