In addition to reading the chapter provided in the module, view the links about becoming a Registered Dietitian along with the two videos that discuss two distinct areas where Nutrition professionals can work to learn about careers in dietetics. For your assignment, think about if Nutrition is a career area that appeals to you and if so, which of the careers or area would you like to work in. If not, how do you think Nutrition impacts overall health and the healthcare system. ***Write a 1-2 page essay about what aspects of a career in Nutrition appeal to you; which area of nutrition you would chose if you worked in that field; and why you might choose it. Also include your thoughts on how nutrition can impact health and/or healthcare related careers. Grading will be based on answering the questions provided thoughtfully and thoroughly keeping in mind good writing techniques
