An overview of integrative and functional nutrition lab assessment, a framework for incorporating evidence-based etiology-driven dietary supplementation, and case examples of IFN by RDNs in different practice roles will provide the RDN with a foundation to provide safe and effective IFMNT at their level of practice. Resources are provided to identify how RDNs can advance their professional development from Beginner to Novice to Competent to Proficient to Advanced Practice in IFN.
