The mission of the board of dietitians/nutritionist examiners is to safeguard the health, safety and welfare of Tennesseans by requiring those who practice dietetics and nutrition within the state to be qualified. The board also interprets the laws, rules and regulations to determine the appropriate standards of practice in an effort to ensure the highest degree of professional conduct.
