Healthcare professionals can play an important role in shaping how consumers think about nutrition and dairy. That’s why the United Dairy Industry of Michigan and Florida Dairy Farmers are working directly with physicians, nurses and other healthcare professionals to provide evidence-based nutrition information they can use with their patients.
On this episode of the Your Dairy Checkoff Podcast, Theresa Reps talks with Sandra Selby, a registered dietitian and board-certified sports nutritionist who leads healthcare professional outreach for the Michigan and Florida checkoff organizations.
Sandra shares how the physician education program started as a pilot in Michigan and has grown into a formal program, including its expansion into Florida. The program takes a wraparound approach, reaching not only physicians but other members of the healthcare team who can influence patient conversations about nutrition.
