“Registered Dietitians (RDs) in Ontario are trained food and nutrition experts. They are recognized experts in translating scientific, medical and nutrition evidence into practical information and helping individuals, their families and communities to access nutrition for health.

Collaboration with clients, caregivers, and other health professionals is central to dietetic practice whether a dietitian works in a private practice or within a health care team with health professionals such as medical doctors, nurses, pharmacists and social workers. Together, they manage nutrition for health promotion, disease prevention, and treatment of acute and chronic diseases.”
