Nutritionist, Dietician and Coaches – Understanding the Difference, and which is right for you with Carol D’Anca
Carol D’Anca, MS, CNS, LDN, an integrative board certified and licensed nutritionist & the Managing Director of Food not Meds joins eHealth Radio and the Health and Nutrition Channels. Carol utilizes a unique combination of education, support, guidance, community, travel, and plant based nutrition to create a one-of-a-kind program that links all facets of health for successful outcomes. She is also the author of Food, not Meds and founder of The Academy for Plant Based Nutrition.
Listen to interview with host Eric Michaels and guest Carol D’Anca discuss the following:
- If the topic of nutrition isn’t confusing enough, there is growing confusion today over where to go to get solid nutrition advice. Your title says you are a board certified and licensed dietician nutritionist. Would you explain what that means?
- How is a board certified nutritionist different from a Registered Dietician or Health Coach or any of the other titles of people in the field of nutrition today?
- How can the general population know the difference when looking for nutritional guidance?
- I would imagine that cost differs considerably. What do the different services provide and are they covered by insurance?
- What services do you offer in your practice?
