Stress also leads to an increase in unhealthy behaviors including sleep loss and self-medicating in the form of tobacco, alcohol, and food. Therefore, it's imperative for registered dietitians to be able to evaluate stress in themselves and their clients, offer stress management strategies, and know when to refer to a mental health specialist.
