In this video I discuss how to become a registered dietitian nutritionist, including my personal experience. I also break down the difference between a registered dietitian and a nutritionist (spoiler: they are not the same!). I talk about the internship process, how to study for the exam, and what you can do as a dietitian.

Hey i have completed my masters and i want to do internship in usa can u suggest me the hospital and where should i start from
I graduate highschool in about 20 days and this video really made me realize I do want to do this. I do want to go to college for this. Not only did you explain what I was getting into but the time it’ll take. And boy am I excited for it now.
In short term she spend 10 to 20 times more money going through The Rockefeller education system that all that suppose to be higher education according the programming in America Corporation Insane Institution!!
All that schooling just to make $50,000 to $75,000 you still have student loan debt And you have to pay for your internship, And the add master's degree And no increase in pay 😢
Thank you for this video! You did amazing explaining all details and straight to the point. Much appreciated
Can you imagine going to school for this and not learning about seed oils and how harmful they are ? 😳 Also, you have to go through all that school just to make 68-100k a year 🤣 schools are a joke and a scam!
Hi hannah All my my life ive eaten way to much except 2 times i have lived with my sister 1st time was a year and the 2nd time was for only 3months i have never felt the confidence i had from living with her since, just wondering can over eating stop you from believing in yourself
I’m a chiropractor, currently doing a functional medicine masters with nutrition concentration.
In Florida If I pass the Diplomate in Clinical Nutrition I can sit for the exam. But from experience are there any reviews of the exam if anything?
This is for 2026, but yeah!
What do you mean by 75 credits in 5 years? You have to keep taking classes constantly ??
Does a nutritionist need to get masters and take a RD exam?
I guess it's understandable but it's insane that you need continued education credits after 5 OR MORE years of education… You're left with debt and don't even receive financial compensation while doing internships… Not sounding worth it to me one bit.
Can I pursue nutrition and dietetics as a graduate in biotechnology . Plz plz reply.Thanks in advance
What about CNS? Board Certified Nutrition Specialist
can you please tell me from which country you're? I'm asking because I really wanna know that where this rule will be apply in 2024.
Does being a RDN mean you have to follow the guidelines like telling people to eat seed oil and bread ?
Good video
This was great! I am starting my fsm rotation in a few weeks and this helped me feel more confident
How do I know what university or colleges are accredited so that I can get a bachelors degree?
Can i become a dietician as an under graduate?
This video is by far the best explanation of this career! Thank you sm!
also, do you have to have a BA in nutrition? or does it matter the field you graduated in as long as you get the masters to become a dietician
THIS WAS. SO AWESOME AND SO SO HELPFUL. SUPER clear. literally the video I was looking for !! My names Hana too. lol
Kara Halderman. Y’all need to watch her video when you finish this one. She isn’t as biased as I am against the state recommended diet so she is able to explain the difference that the legality binds make on this subject.
DO NOT TRUST A DIETITIAN!! Literally due to one of your first statements! You are kept under a code of ethics! You must abide within the information that is provided to you and you as a dietitian can NOT contradict any of its implications. Meaning you can NOT tell someone that anything that is consumable or absorbable that is refined and at that point converted into a synthetic material is degenerative to organic cellular life. Which is fact. A dietitian is just as corned as a doctor when it comes to real truth. A nutritionist is essentially a patriot to for proper cellular regeneration.
Could you also a video on differences between a Nurse Nutritionist vs RDN? Thank you!
Hannah thank you! My dream is to become a RD though, i am sadly majoring in Exercise Physiology. And about to graduate in 2 semesters. Could I still become a RD?
Mam can I do my bachelor's degree in food science and technology instead of bachelor's degree in nutrition and dietetics ? Can I continue doing masters in nutrition and dietetics after bachelors degree in food science and technology?
Thank you! Much enjoyed it
Thank you very much for this. I think I can understand how this difference a dietitian and a nutritionist very well.
Now I understand the difference between a dietitian and a nutritionist and how to become a registered dietitian. Thanks for the explanation♡
okay thanks for the information hannah, I would like to ask if the nutritionist only plays a role in the hospital during the internship?
On his journey to become a nutritionist, he sacrificed a lot of time, and energy, to take his exams. There are about 125-145 questions. he also got several degrees after becoming a nutritionist. He had failed, but he kept his spirit and tried and did not forget to learn. Now he passed to become a nutritionist in 2020 and his exam is in July 2020. and he sacrifices a lot of time around 1000 hours to study if there is a chance. in conclusion, he could succeed in becoming a nutritionist because he kept trying even though he had failed. and the countless job offers he got after becoming a nutritionist. she also opens a podcast on how to become a nutritionist.
Thank you so much for this ❤
yes good
very impressive! thanks for the lesson, this is very helpful, now i know about the difference between dietitian and nutritionist, and how to become registered dietitian,That is cool ♡
Hannah, thank you for this video!
I was wondering if you recommend also getting certified via Precision Nutrition? My Kines professor mentioned I should look into it, but wanted an opinion from a professional in the field.
Super helpful! Thank you! Especially your explaination on the RD exam experience.
