Compared to a healthy adult, vitamin and mineral deficiencies have increased incidence in patients with gastroparesis. In fact, one statistic suggests that over 50% of these individuals are deficient in one or more vitamins or minerals. Age, other comorbidities, poor dietary intake, and lack of nutritional counseling can all worsen this risk. Nutrients most commonly deficient in this patient population are iron, vitamin D, and vitamin B12.

Meet our August RD Rock Star: Jocelyn Nelligan, RD, LDN, CDP ✨ "I became a dietitian due to my own struggle to find balance in the area of health and wellness. Once I finally figured out what worked for me, and how to truly eat and live well, I knew I wanted to help other people solve the puzzle, since it is difficult for so many of us. I love so many things about working for Dietitians On Demand, but the two items that stick out the most are the incredibly helpful, kind, and supportive corporate team, and of course, the flexibility! I love being able to choose assignments that suit my schedule, financial goals, and interests and knowing all of the details upfront so that I can make a commitment that works best for me and the client. My advice for new dietitians that are interested in consulting is to be open-minded! I have had so many fantastic experiences and met wonderful people that I never would have if I did not take certain assignments. Even if you think a certain gig might not be for you, give it a try. If nothing else, you'll come away with a story!"

According to Data USA (2021), minority dietitians comprise only 12.6% Black, 9.5% Hispanic, 6.42% Asian, 4.6% of two or more races, and a mere 0.5% American Indian, with the majority being 73.7% White. This disparity underscores the urgent need for a more inclusive approach within the dietetics profession to better serve diverse populations.
