Dietary advice
Dietary advice is given by dieticians. Dieticians are qualified and regulated health professionals that assess, diagnose and treat dietary and nutritional problems at an individual and wider public-health level. They use the most up-to-date information on food, health and disease which they translate into practical guidance to enable people to make appropriate lifestyle and food choices.
