Unlike the American Dietetic Association (soon to be Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics), the prestigious organization that grants Bonnie Minsky her C.N.S. (Certified Nutrition Specialist) certification accepts no corporate funding.
"Dear Members and Friends of the College,
Many members of the College have expressed that they wish the College to be a strong voice for unbiased nutrition science. On September 28, 2011, the Board of Directors adopted a policy that the College shall accept no corporate funding. The policy states: "The American College of Nutrition accepts no funding from for-profit corporations. This policy fosters our mission and our ability to advance unbiased science without compromise." We are proud to have taken this important step as a scientific body, and believe this will strengthen even further the voice of the College as an advocate for the crucial role of rigorous, unbiased nutrition science in improving human health."
