WHY DO YOU NEED A DIETITIAN?


A

Dietitian is an expert in nutrition, who has fulfilled rigorous requirements in order to dispense scientifically sound nutrition advice.

A

lot of people don’t understand that nutrition is a science, and requires the expertise of a trained dietitian professional.

 In

order to become a dietitian, you have to achieve at least a Bachelor’s degree in Nutrition – which is steeped in the following courses:



 You

must also undergo an extensive supervised internship that covers all aspects of nutrition specialization.

 This

ranges from clinical nutrition and community nutrition to food service. Within these categories, you can also further specialize in renal nutrition, pediatric nutrition, geriatric nutrition and more.

 Finally,

you must pass an exam to become a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist. However in almost all states you also need to be licensed to dispense nutrition advice.


 California

is one of those states with an exemption.

 The

state does not require licensure for the provision of nutrition advice, which means that you are a greater risk of receiving nutrition advice from someone who is not a qualified professional.

 The

term ‘Nutritionist’ by itself is not a regulated term, which means that anyone in California can give nutrition advice. As noted previously, Registered Dietitians are the experts in nutrition with numerous years of training (a minimum of 5 years) in order to practice nutrition.


 Whenever

you take nutrition advice from just anyone, especially someone who claims to be a ‘nutritionist’ without the Dietitian Credential, you are putting your health at great risk.

A

Registered Dietitian is well versed on how foods will impact your medical condition- whether positively or negatively, and food and drug nutrient reactions.

 They

also know how to interpret lab values – along with prescribing the right diet to manage any disease or health condition, ranging from diabetes, heart disease or digestive issues.

you are looking for a Registered Dietitian in California, then you have come to the right place. Dietitian Titi Ayanwola MPH, RD, LD of Plateful of Yum is a renowned celebrity dietitian with numerous years of experience.
