Almost all Medicare beneficiaries have at least one chronic condition and more than two-thirds live with multiple chronic conditions that could be prevented, managed or treated in large part with medical nutrition therapy provided by registered dietitian nutritionists.

Registered dietitian nutritionist Kevin L. Sauer began his one-year term on June 1 as the 2021-2022 President of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.

National leaders in nutrition, health and business will serve as the 2021-2022 Board of Directors of the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.

In May 2021, Linda T. Farr symbolically "passed the gavel" of the Academy’s 2021-2022 presidency to Kevin L. Sauer.
