What is the difference between a registered dietician and a nutritionist?The main difference between a registered dietician and a nutritionist lies in their qualifications and scope of practice. Registered dieticians are regulated health professionals with specific education and training, while nutritionists may have varying levels of education and certification. Registered Dieticians can provide medical nutrition therapy and work in clinical settings, whereas nutritionists often focus on general wellness and may not have the same level of expertise in medical nutrition.
