Welcome to My Healthy Living blog, friends! My name is Ben Greiner, DO, MPH and I am a board certified Internal Medicine Physician in Tulsa, OK and Officer in the Army National Guard. I have over 50 peer reviewed publications, most of which focused on lifestyle behavior change and chronic disease management. Health is my passion and livelihood. Contrary to some perceptions of physicians, I WANT my patients and their family members to live a healthy life. Lifestyle change has the potential to improve energy, libido, cardiovascular health, memory, and mood and may even result in you requiring fewer medications.
After practicing medicine for many years, I’ve realized people are paralyzed in their journeys to improve health. Most recognize that improving nutrition and physical activity are necessary for weight loss or health optimization, but fail to achieve their health goals despite this knowledge. Worse, many people receive bad or even dangerous information online, from their local hairdresser, or even a healthcare professional.
This blog is designed to summarize lifestyle medicine techniques and help you – the busy mother, father, son, husband, patient, military member – accomplish your health goals through easy, straight-forward techniques I’ve used to help many of my own patients. Each blog post will include tips and tricks you can use to achieve sustainable health results. Most importantly, I am on this lifestyle medicine journey with you – join me and you too can experience the benefits of healthy living.
