Melbourne GP Dr. Avi Charlton releases Prescribing Lifestyle, a science-based guide to sustainable health through hormone balance, nutrition, stress management, sleep, and metabolic fitness. Drawing on 20+ years of practice, it offers practical plans to improve energy, biomarkers, and long-term disease prevention.

-- Melbourne, Australia. Australians are looking for credible ways to improve health that do not rely on short-term fixes. Dr. Avi Charlton, a Melbourne-based GP, has released Prescribing Lifestyle, a book that translates clinical evidence into everyday habits that support metabolic health and long-term prevention.
The book arrives as rates of diabetes and obesity continue to rise. Rather than promoting restrictive programs, Prescribing Lifestyle explains how hormone balance, food quality, sleep, stress, breathing patterns and daily routines work together. It then turns those ideas into simple steps that readers can apply at home.
Dr. Charlton notes that small, consistent changes to sleep, movement, food quality and stress can lift energy and improve metabolic markers. Her aim is to make the science practical and achievable for busy people.
The book covers six core themes. First, the foundations of lifestyle medicine and how personalised habit change supports prevention and maintenance. Second, the role of key hormones, including insulin and cortisol and how they influence metabolism, mood and energy. Third, a plain language guide to nutrition that clarifies the roles of fats, carbohydrates, fibre and protein. Fourth, why deep regular sleep and effective stress management enhance recovery and insulin sensitivity. Fifth, how breathing mechanics and posture affect the nervous system. Sixth, practical applications such as meal planning, shopping strategies and weekly check-ins that help readers stay on track.
Dr. Charlton also hosts The Prescribing Lifestyle Podcast, where she shares case studies, patient stories and expert interviews. The podcast extends the message beyond the page and gives listeners additional support as they build new habits.
Her clinical background includes Fellowship of the Royal Australian College of General Practitioners and specialist training through Nutrition Network. She is the founder of the Melbourne Low Carb Clinic, which offers in-person and telehealth consultations, individualised plans, ongoing coaching, online courses and group programs. Locations include Werribee, South Yarra and additional sites across Melbourne, with nationwide support available via telehealth.
According to the clinic, programs are designed to complement care from a patient’s regular GP or specialist. The focus is on real food, gradual habit change and strategies that people can keep doing over the long term.
Prescribing Lifestyle highlights the growing role of prevention and metabolic health in community care. By giving readers tools to sleep better, manage stress, improve food choices and understand metabolic drivers, the book encourages people to participate actively in their wellbeing.
Prescribing Lifestyle is available now.
