Dietetics is the study of nutrient intake and how foods are digested and metabolized in order to provide the necessary energy to fuel muscular activity. Dietitians also study dietary patterns in order to maximize performance and to prevent disease and improve health. To become a registered dietitian, you must complete an undergraduate degree in dietetics, complete a nine-month American Dietetics Association (ADA) approved internship and pass the ADA certification examination. Dietitians can be employed in a variety of settings including hospitals, clinics, school systems, and public health facilities.
