Every member of our nutrition team is a qualified CORU and INDI Registered Dietitian. But what’s the difference between a dietitian and a nutritionist?
The main differences are the type of study that has been completed by each professional, and the regulations attached to each title. A dietitian has met the national and international standards for professional legislation. Dietitians are the only nutrition professionals to be regulated by law, and they are governed by an ethical code (much like doctors are) to ensure that they always work to the highest standard. You can check the register here.
On the other hand, someone who has the title of a nutritionist is not protected by law in many countries, and it is not a regulated term. All dietitians are considered to be nutritionists; however, nutritionists without a dietetics qualification cannot take on the specialised role of a dietitian.
For someone to become a registered dietitian, they need to have completed a 4 year university degree in Nutrition and Dietetics, or a 3-year science degree followed by a Masters Degree in Nutrition. To qualify as a dietitian, practical training in hospitals or clinics is also required. Only qualified practitioners, who have met the required education qualifications including the practical component and who continue to maintain their knowledge and skills through continuing professional development, can use that “Registered Dietitian” or “Dietitian” title.
