When you hear the word ‘dietitian’, the first thing you might think about is weight loss management. What dietitians actually do, however, and the role they play in the healthcare sector, might surprise you!

This week is Dietitians Week, a week where we spread awareness about what it is dietitians do and how they improve our lives.

In this episode, Tara Diversi, President of Dietitians Australia, explains the work of dieticians. From supporting mental health, minimising side effects from medications, and managing disease, dietitians play an important role in Australian healthcare.

After this episode, you might see dietitians through a new lens.

Enjoy.
