Holistic Wellness Frameworks in Higher Education: A Systematic Review of Impact on Student Well-being and Academic Outcomes
No full textObjective: To examine the impact of holistic wellness frameworks on undergraduate students’ well-being, academic performance (GPA), and graduation rates, and to understand student perceptions and engagement factors with programs in higher education.
Background: Undergraduate students face increasing issues like mental health challenges, sleep deprivation, and inadequate physical activity, which significantly impede academic potential and well-being. Although the military’s H2F framework successfully enhances readiness across five integrated pillars, a systematic exploration of a similarly crafted civilian program’s direct influence on student outcomes in higher education remains largely unaddressed.
Methods: A structured electronic search following PRISMA 2020 guidelines across PubMed, GoogleScholar, PacificScholar, and Scopus identified 15 relevant studies published between January 2015 and June 2025.
Results: Integrating H2F-like frameworks increased student well-being and showed improvements in psychological well-being, optimism, and positive relationships between spirituality and well-being. Though direct, long-term evidence on GPA was limited, interventions showed an indirect link to academic performance, mediated by enhanced well-being. Students viewed programs as highly relevant. Perceived personal benefit, convenience, and incentives were facilitating factors. However, lack of time and low motivation hindered engagement, particularly for web-based interventions. This systematic review proposes the Holistic Freshman Readiness (HFR) program as a model for future rigorous, longitudinal trials.

Assessing Predoctoral Dental Student Interest in Nutrition Education: A Study Across Two Dental Schools
No full textThe mouth is a mirror of overall health. Dentists have a vital role in the diagnosis of oral diseases, prevention, for health promotion. The purposes of our exploratory study were to investigate dental students’ attitudes and perceptions regarding nutrition education and to propose a curriculum checklist for integrating nutrition content into dental curricula.
An optional exploratory survey was distributed at two North American urban dental schools to 351 students, to compare student perspectives regarding implementation of nutrition education. The results were analyzed as a step to improve nutrition education in dental curricula. A validated stepwise checklist was developed to guide integration of nutrition education into dental schools.
A total of 313 student responses were obtained (response rate: 89%). Among other findings 70% of students reported having no formal nutrition education before dental school, approximately 87% of respondents strongly agreed that nutrition knowledge is essential for overall health, and 57% strongly agreed that a dentist working together with a nutritionist or dietitian could benefit patient outcomes. Qualitative data indicated dental student interest in nutrition.
These findings demonstrate learner interest in expanding more nutrition education within dental curricula. As a result, we developed a suggested checklist for curriculum development to support in integration of nutrition education in dental programs
