As a registered dietitian I understand malnutrition and obesity are multi-faceted, and there is no one-size fits all solution. The problem is deeper than lack of knowledge; I encounter patients who know what changes they need to make, but do not have access food or medical supplies. For a patient with diabetes this is devastating, and that's only one example of chronic disease impacted by food and nutrition.
