Obesity has reached what some scientists see as epidemic proportions. Clearly, a rethinking of the medical nutritional therapeutic approach is needed. Treatment programs must include a variety of health professionals to facilitate the lifestyle changes needed to treat this condition. There is a role in obesity management for registered dietitians, behaviorists, physicians, exercise physiologists, and geneticists. A chronic disease treatment model is being proposed. Are dietitians ready for the challenge?
肥胖已达到一些科学家所认为的流行程度。显然，需要重新思考医学营养治疗方法。治疗方案必须包括各类健康专业人员，以促进治疗这种病症所需的生活方式改变。注册营养师、行为学家、医生、运动生理学家和遗传学家在肥胖管理中都能发挥作用。一种慢性病治疗模式正在被提出。营养师们准备好迎接挑战了吗？
