Here are answers to some common questions about proactive Registered Dietitian Nutritionist care with Dr. Millie Yeamans:

What is the difference between a Registered Dietitian (RD) and a nutritionist?

A Registered Dietitian (RD or RDN) is a credentialed healthcare professional with extensive education and supervised practice, providing evidence-based nutrition advice. The term "nutritionist" is not regulated, so it does not guarantee the same level of training or expertise. An RD is a reliable source for nutrition information.

Dr. Yeamans acts as a food detective, helping identify trigger foods that might be contributing to your IBS and digestive issues.
