What Does a Nutritionist Do For You?

Dieticians and nutritionists are experts in using food and nutrition to promote health and control diseases. They help clients create realistic, sustainable, and healthy eating plans. Nutritionists take a holistic approach to helping people modify their eating habits and lead a healthy lifestyle. They design eating programs that establish plans for their customers to follow.

Nutritionists can work on weight loss, nutritional or hormonal balance, digestion, or food allergies. They can also go to the community to educate groups about nutritional balance, disease prevention, or good eating habits. Many nutritionists work in hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, school cafeterias, or private homes. They can also create meal plans and recipes for subscription meal delivery services.

Nutritionists must understand complementary medications and over-the-counter herbs. They can also hone their networking skills to improve their knowledge and increase their customer base. Animal nutritionists can run their own consultancy, work in industry, education, academia or research. In states that require licensing, you'll need at least a bachelor's degree (except New York and North Dakota).
