According to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics, only Registered Dietitians (RDs) or Registered Dietitian Nutritionists (RDNs) are legally qualified to provide medical nutrition therapy for diagnosed conditions, though anyone can use the title 'nutritionist'. This makes knowing who can refer you to a nutritionist, and whether you need a referral at all, critical for proper care.
