<p>Anyone have experience/recommendations for a nutritionist in the DC area (preferably DC or MD)? My cardiologist gave me a couple of names, but have not been able to find anything useful about these individuals online – they don’t seem to have websites. If the person has specific experience in dealing with cardio issues, that would be great.
Feel free to PM me if you want to keep it private.
Thanks!</p>
<p>OP, I don’t have any specific names in that area for you, but make sure the person you use is a Registered Dietitian. The term “nutritionist” doesn’t mean much.</p>
<p>In fact, if you go to the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics website (eatright.org) there is a link for “Find a Registered Dietitian” you can try. A map will pop up and there are all kinds of names you can check out.</p>
