Provides that any person who provides, offers to provide, attempts to provide, or holds oneself out as qualified, licensed, or being able to provide medical nutrition therapy or holds oneself out as licensed or qualified to practice dietetics and nutrition without being licensed under the Act shall pay a civil penalty to the Department of Financial and Professional Regulation in an amount not to exceed $10,000 for each offense as determined by the Department.
