Dominic started his pursuit in the fitness industry at the young age of twelve. This inspiration and dedication to health and fitness came by the unfortunate event of his father’s sudden heart attack. He then committed himself to learning as much about health and fitness in order to help his father recover one hundred percent. After helping his father make a full recovery, Dominic had finally found his true passion in life.

The knowledge Dominic gained about health and fitness lead him to be a very successful high school athlete. He competed in power lifting and wrestling. Dominic won countless matches and competitions, and set many records in both of these sports.

So, What Is The Difference Between a Registered Dietitian and a Nutritionist? ... And does it really matter? Your browser may not support display of this image. The term "Dietitian" and "Registered Dietitian" are often used interchangeably and are professionally regulated terms.

A Registered Dietitian has completed the following:
An undergraduate degree from a 4-year Nutrition Science program approved by the American Dietetic Association (ADA).
Minimum 900 hours in an ADA approved internship.
Pass the National Registered Dietitian Examination.
RD's have to complete 75 hours of continuing education credits every 5-year period to keep the Registered status active.

How Is It Regulated? In states with licensure laws you may see the initials "LD" which means Licensed Dietitian. You're protected in those states because no one can call themselves a "nutritionist" because it's against the law!

However, you are at risk in states without licensure laws, mainly because anyone can call themselves a "nutritionist" no matter what background they may have. Plus, self-proclaimed nutritionists may lack professional continuing education that is required, and no code of ethics they must follow. For most there is a tremendous lack of legitimate nutrition education. Scary huh?
