HI There,
Interesting question. The answer to your question lies in the title itself.
Both a nutritionists as well as a dietitian are responsible for helping individuals maintain good or rather healthy eating habits by maintaining a proper diet.
Though the difference is negligible, but in-case if you wish to see the minute difference.In layman's term, when we wish to loose weight we opt for a dietitian, whereas knowing the nutrient content is the work of a nutrient.In directly it is the same person who alternatively assumes the role depending on the client and their issues.
Initially, fitness was associated with the term Nutritionists, mainly for the athletes. Their fitness regime is mostly monitored through a Nutritionists.
And we as layman who are diet conscious approach a dietitian.
But please note they are the same term and profession.Since even to loose wight we need to know the nutritional value so that we do not fall unhealthy.
Hope this clears the terminology. Also please note that in terms of qualifications, there is no separate course. University provides them as a B.Sc in Nutrition and Dietetics, a 3 years course
Wish you good luck....
