Abstract:
A diverse workforce is vitally important to ensure that our nation has quality, affordable, and accessible health care. Diversity, equity, and inclusion are crucial to the nutrition/dietetics profession. As the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (Academy) strives to increase and better target its efforts in these areas, assessment will be required to measure progress. Evaluation of progress hinges on the cooperation of individual nutrition/dietetics practitioners — registered dietitians (RDs) or registered dietitian nutritionists (RDNs) and dietetic technicians registered (DTRs) and nutrition

This review examines Phillip Joy and Megan Aston’s Queering Nutrition and Dietetics: LGBTQ+ Reflections on Food Through Art. Through intimate and critical reflexivity, the featured authors and artists offer readers a unique interpretation of nutrition and dietetics as a field that begs revitalization. By delving into the lives of queer individuals and their relationship with food, Joy and Aston address the prevalent marginalization that exists within nutritional healthcare.

Abstract:
Providing cost- and clinically-effective services is essential in today's NHS, but it can be difficult to capture this data in day to day practice. The identification and development of outcome measures for dietetics is an ongoing challenge. This article describes how the Renal Nutrition Group of the British Dietetic Association developed three renal-specific Dietetic Outcome Models and a Renal Dietetic Outcome Tool (RDOT) to measure dietetic outcomes in potassium and phosphate management and oral nutrition support in patients with chronic kidney disease for use in daily clinical practice

Abstract:
The history of dietetics can be traced as far back as the writings of Homer, Plato and Hippocrates in ancient Greece. Although diet and nutrition continued to be judged important for health, dietetics did not progress much till the 19th century with the advances in chemistry. Early research focused focuses on vitamin deficiency diseases while later workers proposed daily requirements for protein, fat and carbohydrates. Dietetics as a profession was given a boost during the Second World War when its importance was recognized by the military. Today, professional dietetic associations can be foun
