  • In short: All dietitians are nutritionists, but not all nutritionists are dietitians.

    Registered Dietitian’s (RD/RDN) are the food and nutrition experts.

    • Requires an undergraduate science degree from an accredited university/college with nutrition-related coursework

    • Must complete an accredited internship program with a minimum of 1,200 supervised patient care hours

    • Pass a national board examination

    • Adhere to regular continuing education requirements

    • Required to abide by state licensure laws

    Nutritionists:

    • No degrees or credentials are required/regulated nationally, not a protected title

    • Dependent upon the state licensure laws, anyone with an interest in diet/nutrition may call themselves a nutritionist

    • This includes individuals who have paid money for a 6/9/12+ month program or course (i.e. "certified nutrition coach", “nutritional therapy practitioner”, "integrated health nutrition provider", the list goes on)

    • What unregulated "nutritionists" are not allowed to do: prescribe supplements or meal plans, prescribe or suggest medications, provide exercise prescriptions, conduct psychological counseling or therapy, prescribe plans or therapy to manage disease.

  • A non diet dietitian is a healthcare professional who supports a weight-inclusive approach to health by shifting the focus from weight loss or dieting to overall well-being, intuitive eating, and a positive body image.

    Instead of prescribing restrictive diets or focusing on the scale, we help clients build a peaceful, sustainable, and pleasurable relationship with food by honoring internal hunger and fullness cues, challenging diet culture, and nurturing mental and emotional health.

  • A HAES® provider is a healthcare professional who follows the principles of Health at Every Size® (HAES), an approach that focuses on well-being rather than on weight control.

    The HAES ® framework of care rejects the idea that health is determined by body size and instead provides compassionate, respectful, and holistic care for all people, regardless of size.
