As for me, I am a plant based Registered Dietitian Nutritionist (RDN) who has worked in clinical as well as community settings.
I am also a wife, mom of two intelligent girls, a runner, new yoga lover, not so new chocolate lover, and ethical vegan who was raised eating meat and loads of dairy.
My journey to veganism took a long time.
It’s a story with many unexpected twists and turns. If you are curious about how I made the transition to the vegan diet part, check out the details in this post.
And if you want to tell me your story, or send me that vegan recipe you can’t get enough of, you can connect with me over here!
In the USA, a RDN is a recognized expert in nutrition.
To become a RDN, one must receive a bachelors degree, complete an accredited Dietetic Internship, and successfully pass the Registered Dietitian examination. RDN's must complete 75 continuing education units every 5 years to maintain their credentials.
