Dieticians are healthcare professionals who help individuals make informed food choices to achieve optimal health and well-being. They provide guidance on nutrition and healthy eating, taking into account the individual's age, lifestyle, and medical history. The main responsibilities of a dietitian include: assessing patients' dietary needs and making recommendations for a healthy diet, developing and implementing dietary plans for individuals with specific health conditions, such as diabetes or heart disease, providing nutrition education and counseling to help individuals make healthier food choices and monitoring and evaluating patients' progress towards their dietary goals.
