What is the difference between a nutritionist and a dietitian?
A nutritionist and dietitians are sometimes used interchangeably, but there is a difference in regards to education, credentials, scope of practice, and regulations and licensure.
Overall, there can be an overlap, however dietitians typically have more standardized education, whereas clinical nutritionists may come from a diverse background of various levels of certificates.
