It is common to treat the symptoms, yet how much better to treat the source of the problem. This statement represents the foremost reason I am pursuing dietetics as a career.
I seek to educate others about how food can be powerfully beneficial. I wish to show them that attainable dietary changes and choices are available to significantly improve or maintain current health. This area of focus must not be undervalued. Imagine what could be done with the saved dollars in healthcare costs by teaching and educating others about the benefits of proper food choice and nutrition... imagine the potential for better quality of life it can offer.
My passion lies in educating and helping others discover this quality of life and that they are in power to make changes to better their health by diet and nutrition. Dietetics can provide this ability and that is why I seek to be a part of it.
