What does evidence-based practice mean in clinical nutrition?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Giving advice based on reliable scientific information
Evidence-based practice combines the best available scientific research with professional expertise and the patient’s needs, preferences and circumstances. In clinical nutrition, it helps the dietitian choose safer and more effective advice rather than relying on rumours, advertisements or habit. Evidence does not mean identical treatment for everyone; the plan must still be individualised.
