Objective The purpose of this study was to characterize RDNs’ knowledge of and attitudes toward an intuitive eating lifestyle and describe use of traditional weight management and nonrestrictive lifestyle practices with clients. Design This was a cross-sectional study. Participants A validated survey was distributed using online survey software to 88,834 RDNs.
