You are an RN at Rasmussen Hospital and recently worked with a patient who told you about an unusual diet they started recently. You are concerned about the patient’s well-being and feel a sense of responsibility to teach them about potential risks of following a fad diet.

Explain the principles of integrative nutrition.
Emphasize the importance of food as medicine.
Describe the ways integrative nutrition is influenced by patient-factors, including attitudes, social/cultural habits, and environmental surroundings.
Research 1 fad diet and 1 evidence-based diet to feature in your handout, and do the following:

Assess the advantages and disadvantages of each diet.
Cite at least 1 credible resource for each diet.
