Preventive nutrition is aimed at individuals who are in good health - and
want to stay healthy. Therapeutic diets are usually ordered for individuals
directly under a physician's care, such as a patient in a hospital or
someone recovering from surgery or illness. When special diets are ordered
by a physician, a Registered Dietitian can help answer concerns and questions
regarding ingredients, amounts and preparation.
