What is an Accredited Practising Dietitian?
In Australia, Dietitian is a protected title, governed by the regulating body Dietitians Australia. Accredited Practising Dietitians (APDs) are university-qualified nutrition professionals, who provide a range of evidence-based nutrition services, dietary counseling, medical nutrition therapy and much more. APDs also undertake ongoing training and education programs each year, to ensure they provide the most up-to-date and credible source of nutrition information.
In a world full of nutrition misinformation, false promises and quick-fixes … trust and APD to provide evidence-based Medical Nutrition Therapy.
