The Big Dietetic Debate: Where are all the men in dietetics? With Dr Adrian Brown and Owen Marples The Dietitian Cafe

    • Sănătate și fitness

In this big dietetic debate, we discuss the topic of ‘Where are all the men in dietetics?’. Harriet is joined by registered dietitians Dr Adrian Brown and Owen Marples. Adrian works as a Senior Specialist Weight Management Dietitian. He is also a Research Fellow and lecturer at University College London, with his research interests centring around obesity, type 2 diabetes, bariatric surgery, weight stigma and the use of low energy diets in different patient populations. Owen has worked in a variety of NHS roles including diabetes specialist dietitian, public health coordinator and quality support manager, and he is now a Clinical Lead Dietitian at digital healthcare company Oviva.

To coincide with Men’s Health Week and this year’s diversity themed Dietitian's Week, we will be discussing the lack of gender diversity amongst the dietetic profession. We’ll explore why the dietetics profession is almost exclusively female, look at the possible reasons for this and discuss the possible implications. Adrian and Owen will give their suggestions for what can be done in the future to engage men and encourage them to join the profession.
