  • An appointment with a dietitian is an important part of managing osteoporosis because nutrition plays a key role in bone health. Adequate intake of calcium, protein, vitamin D and other essential nutrients supports bone density, muscle strength and fracture prevention. A dietitian can assess your individual needs, identify gaps in your intake, and provide practical, personalised advice to support bone health alongside exercise and medical care, helping you achieve the best long-term outcomes.

  • While some use the terms interchangeably, there are significant differences between nutritionists and dietitians, the major one being accreditation. Dietitians are registered with nationally recognised bodies, such as the Dietitians Association of Australia, and must abide by the National Competency Standards for Dietitians. These standards guide dietitians on how to practise their profession within different contexts, such as public service or, in our case, when advising individuals.
