Which health professionals assess, diagnose, and treat dietary and nutritional problems at an individual level?

Development
Diabetes
Diaphragm
Dietitian

The correct answer is: Dietitian

Dietitians are the health professionals specifically trained to assess, diagnose, and treat dietary and nutritional problems at an individual level. They possess a deep understanding of nutrition science and apply this knowledge to help individuals manage their health through proper dietary practices. Dietitians create personalized nutrition plans, considering individual health needs, medical histories, and lifestyle factors. Their expertise allows them to address various conditions, such as obesity, diabetes, heart disease, and gastrointestinal disorders, by tailoring dietary approaches that promote overall health and well-being. The other terms listed do not pertain to health professionals with this specific focus. Development usually refers to growth processes or educational pathways, diabetes relates to a chronic medical condition affecting blood sugar levels, and diaphragm refers to a muscle involved in breathing rather than a role in nutrition or dietetics.
