Digest Magazine – A Fresh Look, A Continued Legacy

With a newly refreshed format, Digest Magazine strikes the perfect balance between professionalism and approachability—a modernized design paired with thoughtfully curated content.

This issue explores the powerful yet often underused role of food in preventing and treating disease. Rooted in both ancient healing traditions and modern science, “food as medicine” calls for seeing patients as whole people—considering their cultures, traditions and daily realities. Alumni share how they integrate nutrition, exercise and mindfulness into clinical care, empowering patients to improve health and reduce reliance on medication. Readers will visit Still Rise Farms, a sanctuary where food is medicine and community is therapy; step into PCOM’s Culinary Medicine elective; and gain insights from a clinical psychologist on pediatric feeding challenges. Together, these stories show how lasting health begins with what’s on the plate.
