A dietitian knows a lot about food and healthy eating. That's because dietitians are people who are experts in food! Dietitians can help you decide what to eat, when to eat, and almost anything else about eating right. They also offer support to people with a variety of conditions, such as diabetes, food allergies, and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD).
