Current occupational licensing restrictions mean that people can and have been subjected to violence for their actions of giving dietary advice to others, if they didn't have the proper permission to do so.
One health coach from California is currently suing over those restrictions because she was prevented from doing her work in Florida after a complaint was made that she didn't have the right license.
This has happened to too many people who've wanted to serve others in the market, whether providing dietary advice or wanting to make them burgers, they've continually been restricted by the various rigid edicts that have been passed by the state. Luckily, a growing number of those seeming violations to natural rights have been challenged though and in some circumstances liberty has prevailed.
Are people not even free to choose where they get their health advice from?
This case is highlighting the extensive confusion surrounding this line of work and how difficult it is for individuals to move their business to another state if they need to. Some might not even know they are doing anything wrong and various people have been contacted by authorities in the past and told to stop posting their health advice online and discussing personal health issues with people unless they have the right permit to do so.
Let the customer themselves decide if they are receiving quality service, rather than allowing the state to decide for them with rigid barriers that keep great service out of the market; the restrictions help to keep prices high and quality low. It isn't about safety.
