In some provinces of Canada like Quebec, the word Dietetician AND Nutritionnist are protected by the law. So they mean the same because they did the same education (a 4 years degree + 40 weeks of internship).

Love this video!!! I’ve been trying to find out the difference in scope of practice between a dietitian and a certified nutrition specialist. Would you be able to clarify that for me please? The education, practice hours boards seem so similar I just am not sure how they differ!

You are a good teacher , you explain clearly and also your voice is very good to make people understand well the different between those two sciences. You give me an ambition to choose what I’m going to learn from that. Thanks

It's true that nutritionists aren't dietitians however nutritionists can be certified i.e., CNS, CCN, etc. The CNS certification requires 1000 hours of supervised experience plus an exam so it's a way to legitimize someone who has earned the degree. Anyone with that certification is just as qualified as a dietitian regardless of if it requires licensing in your specific state. I also like how this was never mentioned in the video. She is, after all, an RDN so she wouldn't have any preconceived notions or biases ;). Sure, anyone can call themselves a nutritionist but anyone with common sense is going to do a little more research to vet the person they are entrusting their health to.

Very detailed and clear information, thanks so much!

Thank you for explaining the difference because I keep telling people that a nutritionist call tell you anything, but a a registered dietitian is someone trained in the field of nutrition with a certification behind their name!

In México you have to study 4 years to become a Nutritionist (In my collegue I had 4 years and a half) and then 1 year of social service or intership in a hospital 🙄 and a Dietitian is someone who has a tecnic career of one or two years.

it varies with state and program too. In the program I'm in it takes about 4 years in the university but because I did 2 years in a community college I only have to do 3 years. Then you have to apply for the intership but before that we have to do community service too (volunteet work) in the nutrition area. Only then can we take the Exam to receive the certification

in Malaysia, Dietitians and nutritionist are two different career. Both profession in Malaysia (for government sector) are protected by law (Ministry of Health Malaysia). Mostly dietitians practicing their skills in clinical field such hospital where their targeted clients are the patients (cure through nutritional therapeutic), whereas nutritionist practicing their skills in community setting which is more to promote nutrition and health for example for community in district and country level, schools and universities. Their main goal is to prevent NCDs (prevent through nutritional knowledge and awareness). In private sectors, nutritionist mostly work in food and beverages company to do nutritional research and promote their company's products to the public.

Thank you as I e wanted to go to dietitian. Do they take most insurance plans? I hope so.

Very informative. From what I've experienced, more people are not familiar with what a dietician is at all, so naturally they would have no idea how to distinguish a nutritionist from a dietician. Nutritionist is a most familiar term even if a person doesn't know anything about qualifications.

Thankfully in most of the provinces in Canada calling yourself a nutritionist means that not just anyone can call themselves that.

Hi. What is the difference between a certified clinical nutritionist and registered dietitian in college education requirements and what they do?

Hi sarah, i just want to share about nutrition indonesia. We have a struggle about our job description bcos in indonesia there's medical doctor can continuing their specialization in nutrition and it's make nutritionist and dietitian here can't free to give a nutrition therapy for client.

I'm 287 and am averaging losing 3-5 lbs a month. I'm working out with a trainer 5 days a week (virtually for now). I get one really kick-ass sweat dripping in my eyes workout per week and am too sore the rest of the week to kick it into that gear again although I still do the workouts. In addition to daily 1-2 mile walks. Something in my brain and muscles clicked this week for the first time and I felt my abs take the brunt of the workout rather than my thighs and shoulders, and all of a sudden my squats and deadlifts burn in my glutes which they didn't at all before. In a month I've gained massive range of motion in my hips and much more flexibility which is making it easier. But the soreness is intense, I'm assuming that means I need better nutrition? I'm eating 1500 - 1700 calories a day. I'm fighting my sugar addiction ( chocolate) but still allow myself a little something (like a pudding cup) here and there. I am pretty carb heavy though. I've been told I can still have some carbs but they should be things like Ezekiel bread, not regular English muffins. I eat a lot of vegetables, no red meat (it hurts my stomach), lots of chicken. Does anyone have any thoughts?

It is true that nutritionist does not have the legal designation that a dietitian has, the profession of nutritionists (4 year degree and beyond) include those that work in food service management, public health and policy, research, and community nutrition. Professionally, nutritionists is the broader term and dietitian is part of the path that also includes the internship and RD exam. There are other paths in a graduate program that also give nutritionists specific skills, such as a public health degree to work in the policy arena. The person with a college degree in nutrition can work in all the fields that a dietitian does, except clinical practice. If someone is a nutritionist, the next question would be to ask if they have a college degree in nutrition and then have confidence in their guidance.

So informative

This is a better explanation thanks. that is my career

Such an important distinction. Another thing that pops up on the internet as well is people who advertise the fact that they are a doctor to help further their nutrition advice platform but when you look deeper it turns out they studied something unrelated like chiropractics. It's so important to check these things out before you launch yourself into someones dietary advice!!!

If I do BSC (Honours) Public Health and Nutrition Degree, can I become a Dietitian ?

omg in Italy it's actually so different! Here dietitian is only a 3 years degre and they can't work alone. They need the supervision of a nutritionist or a medical doctor, also, they can't prescript diet, they can only suggest you tips. Instead a nutritionist need to have a biology degree (3 /5 years) and after and other degree in Nutrition (2 years). the nutritionists works indipendetly and, of course, prescribes diet, but the important thing it's that NUTRITIONIST helps people with disease (eating disorders, chronical disease, ...) since the profession is very close to a medical doctor.

It is a shame that in the UK Nutritionists are not as valued mainly because there is little regulation. I would like to be a nutritionist because its not restricted to the current government food standards. Unfortunately, I've read that a dietitian can not really go against things they don't agree with without being struck off. Food in hospitals are less than healing and apparently regulated to dietitians 😲
