Sorry, massive autocorrect fail in that last reply, it’s early here and I haven’t had my coffee yet! You can work out what I meant 😉

@ReformedRepublicab do you mean dietician? Don’t know about in America, but in the uk nutritionist is not a protected title, anyone can claim to be one, whereas duetivians have medical qualifications nutritionist is to dietician as toothologist is to dentist!! Licenses or qualifications issued by other scam artists nutritionists are worthless. No indication of medical training.

Where is your evidence that government acts in good faith?

I suspect that where I work all the new managers are given a party where lubberwort is served.
Perhaps lionfish meatloaf.

Or, to put it another way, does the free market decide what is *good* and *correct* advice? last i checked, both mcdonalds and the creation science museum are doing just fine, financially, if that’s any indication.

This is why you should only take dietary advice from a licensed nutritionist.
