Nutrition research is moving at a rapid pace yet the scientific method of testing and verifying results is important. Translating research findings requires understanding food science, food composition, and the ability to individualize strategies and approach to behavior change.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;&lt;span style= &quot;mso-bookmark: _Hlk144968879;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style= &quot;font-family: &#039;Calibri&#039;,sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-theme-font: major-latin;&quot;&gt; Dietitians have the necessary background and can grow their skills – without burning through all their time and mental energy. And like learning to cook or speak a foreign language, the fastest way to build skills and confidence is to jump in and practice – ideally with some support.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;
