Registered Dietitians RDs are the only regulated and licensed health professionals in the field of nutrition in Canada, we are held to ethical standards of practice.

What this means is that you can save your receipts and supply them to your accountant for medical expense tax credit. Check your plan to see what is covered for you. Since every insurance company has different policies, please be sure to check with them regarding coverage per session, per year and per family member.

We do not direct bill to insurance companies but will provide you with a detailed receipt that includes our Registered Dietitian practice permit number, description of service, dates of counselling sessions and consulting fee breakdown per hour.

My health is important to me and I want to benefit from the services a Registered Dietitian can provide. Dietitians are qualified to offer Canadians trust-worthy, science-based food and nutrition advice tailored to their health goals, preferences, and lifestyles.

In some provinces including where we are located in Alberta, the word Nutritionist is also a protected title. Seeing a Registered Dietitian is one way you can be assured the nutrition education you are receiving is credible. Apply this same thinking when it comes to nutrition advice.

Just like electricians, engineers and medical doctors, Dietitians are accountable to provincial regulatory bodies for the highest standards of education and ethical practice. Provincial regulatory bodies protect the public and serve as a point of contact for consumer complaints and malpractice.

Titles such as Registered Holistic Nutritionist, Certified Nutritional Practitioner, RONP, RNCP, ROHP, RHN, CNP are not the same as a Registered Dietitian and do not indicate the person is a provincially regulated health professional. These are often used by those who have completed much less intensive privately owned training programs that vary in length and rigor.

To ensure your nutrition care provider is a Dietitian, look for RD or PDt DtP in French behind their name. Dietitian is a protected title across Canada, just like physician, nurse and pharmacist.

Nutritionist is also a protected title in Alberta, Quebec and Nova Scotia.

When we care for our bodies through balanced nutrition, movement and rest, our weight will naturally settle at is most comfortable weight range.

This range has been determined by our DNA - our heredity, or our "natural weight". We provide an alternative to restrictive dieting by offering weight neutral care.

That means we help clients move on from focusing on the number on the scale to what actually matters. We can choose to appreciate the body we are living in, adopt good health habits and let our weight fall where it will naturally.

Seriously, who likes to be weighed? Being weighed can contribute to feelings of low self worth. Most people who have ever been on a diet, done a wellness program, or participated in a commercial weight loss program can tell you that their experience with the scale is traumatizing.
