A nutritionist is an expert who provides counselling to people regarding nutrition and a healthy diet. Most people confuse the term “nutritionist” with “dietitian”. Both profiles are different. Nutritionists only deal with individuals who are not suffering from any disease or health disorder. They help people to reach the next level of their fitness by improving their dietary choices. Although, most subjects are common for both BSc. Community Nutrition and Dietetics, students study subjects related to nutrition program planning and nutrition education in the final years of the course.
