The care and training of athletes is best accomplished through a team of specially trained professionals who work in concert for optimal outcomes. In that regard, certified athletic trainers (ATCs) and registered dietitians/certified specialists in sports dietetics (RD/CSSDs), who use evidence-based practice guidelines, are well qualified and positioned to provide high quality service to their athletes and organizations. Through case study examples of effective collaborations between ATCs and RDs/CSSDs, A Marriage of Two Professions-A Case Study Approach to Illustrate Evidence-Based Treatment of Nutrition-Related Concerns in Athletes details an optimum model for treating athletes who present with symptoms that require nutrition intervention and the need for medical nutrition therapy.
