  • Dietitian: Regulated health professionals that undergo comprehensive and rigorous training to use the title of Registered Dietitian. In order to become a Dietitian, they must complete an accredited bachelor’s degree in food and nutrition and also an internship following graduation. Dietitians are different than Nutritionists as Dietitians are held to a high standard of education and ethics through the College of Dietitians of Ontario, and they rely on scientific information to drive their nutritional recommendations.
  • What they do: Dietitians look beyond diets to provide their clients with life-changing nutrition and behavioural advice to enable their clients to reach optimal health and reduce disease symptoms.
