About the book >.>.> "What is a dietitian?" "What does a dietitian do?" Recognition of the dietitian as a food and nutrition expert became offi cial in 1917. This, however, was not the actual beginning of the practice of dietetics. The use of diet in the treatment of disease was already an ancient practice even though it was based more on trial and error than on scientific knowledge. Besides physicians, others including home econo mists, nurses, and cooks were practicing and teaching about good dietary practices, and researchers were uncovering the secrets of nutrients in foods and their health-promoting effect.
