                                According to the CDC, over 133 million Americans live with a chronic disease, many of which can be managed or improved with proper diet. A registered dietitian creates an individualized roadmap known as a nutrition prescription to address a patient's specific health needs, such as controlling blood sugar for Type 2 diabetes.
