The British Association for Applied Nutrition and Nutritional Therapy fully supports the recommendation that all nutrition professionals involved in providing advice to the public should come under the strictest regulation.

CNHC is the national voluntary regulator for complementary healthcare practitioners. Their key function is to enhance public protection, by setting standards for registration with CNHC. They anticipate that obtaining the CNHC "quality mark" will swiftly be recognised as the hallmark of quality for the sector. Over time, the general public and those who commission the services of complementary healthcare practitioners will be able to choose with confidence, by looking for the CNHC quality mark.

The CNHC has been developed with the help of complementary healthcare practitioners and with support from what is now known as the College of Medicine (previously the Prince's Foundation for Integrated Health (FIH). The Department of Health (DH) has consistently supported the CNHC throughout its start-up period and is committed to establishing the CNHC as the national voluntary regulator in the complementary healthcare field.

In the October 2010 Department of Health GP Bulletin, a request was made by the DH that all GPs and Chief Nursing Officers recommend patients who are seeking complementary therapies to consult with practitioners who are registered with the CNHC, where it registers the professional discipline concerned.
