If you are located in the state of California, you need a referral accompanied by a written prescription that includes your diagnosis and diet order or desired objective signed by a health care provider with prescribing authority to receive medical nutrition therapy.
California state law allows any person to provide nutritional advice or give advice concerning proper nutrition—which is the giving of advice as to the role of food and food ingredients, including dietary supplements. This state law does NOT confer authority to practice medicine or to undertake the diagnosis, prevention, treatment, or cure of any disease, pain, deformity, injury, or physical or mental condition and specifically does not authorize any person other than one who is a licensed health practitioner to state that any product might cure any disease, disorder, or condition.
