FAQ’s
-
To become a RD: courses pertaining to subjects such as organic chemistry, pathophysiology, food science, medical nutrition therapy, and counseling must be taken; this is followed by a minimum of 1,000 supervised practice hours to permit eligibility to sit for the national board exam. And starting in 2024, a minimum of a masters degree will be required for exam eligibility.
To become a traditional or “non-RD“ nutritionist: there is limited regulation on who can use the term nutritionist. Regulation of this term is dependent upon the state laws. There are some nutritionists that may have education and a scientific background; however, there are many online courses that provide individuals with the term nutritionists that do not use evidence based information in education. In fact, due to the limited regulation of this term in certain states, there is nothing stopping you from calling yourself a nutritionist without any training!
According to the Commission on Dietetic Registration (CDR), "RDs are food and nutrition experts"
