What is the difference between a Dietitian Vs. a Nutritionist?

​A registered dietitian (RD), often referred to as a dietitian or a registered dietitian nutritionist, is a nationally recognized, board-certified food and nutrition expert. The RD credential indicates that the individual has obtained a degree in nutrition from an accredited university, completed a 1200-hour dietetic internship in a medical facility, passed a national exam by the Commission on Dietetic Registration and is in good-standing by completing continuing education. In some States, there is a secondary license to practice conferred by the state board of professional accreditation. For Massachusetts, the license designation is, a "Licensed Dietitian/Nutritionist (LDN)."

​

Nutritionists typically work with individuals or populations to teach them more about general nutrition, food and health. However, Nutritionist are limited in what they can do in many states. Nutritionists usually cannot provide medical nutritional counseling, diagnose, treat illnesses and more. 

 

In contrast, a registered dietitian is a credentialed professional who is licensed  and can provide medical nutrition therapy and counseling, to treat an illness.
