Definition of a Low-Carb Practitioner

Directory listings are restricted to those who have a recognised medical qualification such as (but not limited to) medical physicians, medical doctors, registered nurses, registered dieticians, registered nutritionists, registered pharmacists.

You need to be a registered practitioner AND currently use low-carb nutrition in your practice.

Listings are currently restricted to practitioners who are regulated by a registered regulating body. For example, registered dieticians, and registered nutritionists but not those who call themselves a nutritionist without being a member of a regulating registered body. This is to distinguish between those who call themselves a nutritionist but who do not have a recognised qualification.

Listings are not currently available to those without any recognised medical training. Or those who do not belong to a regulating body.

Why aren’t nutritionists allowed to create a listing?

Currently, the use of the term “Nutritionist” is undefined. Many people online call themselves a “nutritionist” after completing a non-recognised course, self-directed study, or simply have an area of interest which they believe allows them to call themselves a “nutritionist”. The listings found here in LCP directory, are currently restricted to those nutritionists who have a recognised qualification and are regulated by a national body in their country.
