What's the difference between a dietitian and a nutritionist?
To avoid confusion, check to see if the person you follow or are taking advice from is registered.
Mission Nutrition’s Founder and Director, Claire Turnbull, trained as a dietitian and was a registered dietitian for many years, but for several reasons now works as an NZ registered nutritionist.
Our team at Mission Nutrition are all registered and have between 5 and 20 years experience.
Side note: Dietitian is sometimes spelt Dietician, and Nutritionists are sometimes referred to as Nutritionalists!
Thanks to @foodgroup_nz for allowing me to share their infographic above which is very helpful!
