Below is a little more info about Dietitians and the purpose of the “our” day!
Purpose
Registered Dietitian Nutritionist Day was created by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (formerly the American Dietetic Association) to increase the awareness of registered dietitian nutritionists as the indispensable providers of food and nutrition services and to recognize RDNs for their commitment to helping people enjoy healthy lives. Registered Dietitian Nutritionist Day and National Nutrition Month® promote the Academy and RDNs to the public and the media as the most valuable and credible source of timely, scientifically-based food and nutrition information.
History
The first Registered Dietitian Day was celebrated in 2008. Wednesday, March 11 has been designated Registered Dietitian Nutritionist Day in 2015.
