David Feder , RDN

David Feder, RDN, has been a food, nutrition and health journalist for 26 years.

In the 1990s he became a registered dietitian while completing research and coursework toward a Ph.D. in nutrition biochemistry at the University of Texas at Austin. Along the way he taught food science and nutrition while practicing as a nutrition counselor.
