- Providing Education: Dietitians educate individuals and groups about healthy eating habits, portion control, food labels, and the nutritional value of different foods. They aim to empower people to make sustainable, healthy food choices.
- Monitoring Progress: Dietitians track the progress of individuals on specific diets, adjusting recommendations as needed to ensure optimal health outcomes.
- Counseling and Support: They offer counseling to help people cope with emotional eating, disordered eating behaviors, and making long-term changes to their diets for improved health.
