There is an abundance of literature that examines demographic and lifestyle trends predicting supplement use. Research explores a variety of therapeutic and nontherapeutic doses of single and multiple formulas, as well as reasons for taking specific supplements. Considerably less information exists describing how knowledgeable and confident all health professionals feel about this topic. The purpose of this study was to determine the knowledge, behaviors and self-efficacy of practicing dietitians and dietetic technicians in Ohio toward nutrient and herbal/botanical dietary supplements. Specifically, this study evaluated relationships between practitioner self-efficacy toward dietary supplements and knowledge, personal use, and recommendations to clients. The results demonstrate an area for current dietetic practitioners to improve and suggest that dietetic programs should expand curriculum to emphasize nutrient and herbal/botanical dietary supplements. 2012-12-20 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1354708713 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1354708713 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
