What are the benefits of seeing a registered dietician? Can’t I just read a book?
The major benefit of seeking professional advice is that they are trained in that area. Would you try to fix your car from a book? They are trained to cover the details of your program and find solutions to your concerns. People with certain diseases require specific guidelines to follow and the dieticians are there to help you understand your plan. Some people see dieticians every week and some see them once a month. There is some cost involved with professional advice, but in the long run, the advice they give you lasts a lifetime.
