Abstract: Literature from across multiple health professions points to a budding crisis where current and future health professionals are experiencing stress and burnout at an alarming rate that threatens the vitality of our healthcare system and it appears to be no different for professionals engaged in nutrition education and dietetics. We draw attention to stressors impacting the field of nutrition and dietetics and encourage a conversation for stronger interprofessional collaborations between registered dietitian nutritionists and other members of the healthcare team.
