Why should I see a dietician?

 

A registered dietitian (RD) is the leading expert in diet and nutrition counseling. RDs must have a Bachelors of Science degree, and complete a 900 hour supervised internship before being eligible to sit for the RD exam. This experience provides a wealth of hands-on experience in the field of nutrition.
