Pediatric Nutrition for Dietitians

Many physicians, especially pediatricians, learn both the fundamentals and the nuances of practi-
cal nutrition from dietitians. Clinical dietitians, in turn, learn and sharpen their skills with the help

of physicians. This book exemplifies this symbiosis not just because its editors are an M D-RD
combo who have practiced together for more than a decade, but because practically all the chapters
in this book have dietitian and physician authors who have contributed to this “ multidisciplinary”
approach. We hope that this approach will serve both the student dietitian and the dietitian who may
not have the support of a physician at her side.
