What Are Nutritionists?

The science behind what we eat, and the effects that the food we ingest have on our body is a broad one, and there are many different types of therapists who are full-time livings from advising people on how they can improve their health by making changes in their diets.

Nutritionists are just one of many examples of these types of professionals.Nutritionists do a lot of the same work that dietitians and sports therapist do, in that they make recommendations about the types of diets that people should strive to maintain.

The difference that sets nutritionists apart is in who they deal with. Other types of therapists who deal with dieting, such as ones that work in sports medicine, are often dealing with athletes or at least people that require some individualized advice for their diets in order to accomplish their own unique fitness goals.

For example, someone who is running track and field is going to require a much different diet to be designed for them than someone who's trying to bulk up to play as a linebacker.

Nutritionists do dole out a lot of advice about dieting, but they do so in a much more general way. They generally deal with much larger groups of people, such as in a classroom setting, and the dietary recommendations that they make usually involve changes that are safely applicable to average people with average goals.

Anytime you see a public address that comes on the news dealing with food substances at large that are declared to be either generally bad or generally good for most people, it's usually a high-ranking nutritionist in the food industry whose research is suggesting these conclusions.

Although they do deal with a lot of the same sciences that other types of dietitians do, nutritionists do require a slightly different path of certification in order to become licensed in their profession. They usually don't require any type of training in personal therapy, which is something that is common among people who deal with more individualized dieting solutions.

This is because nutritionists often do not work directly with the public. Much of their work is done in a research environment, such as a food laboratory at a major university, or in some sort of Food Company’s research facility.

They generally deal with case studies involving the long-term effects of ingredients in foods that are offered to the public, and make broad recommendations about trends that they see taking place in diets of most Americans as a result of their observations.

Anyone who is young and talented, and wants to enjoy the feeling of doing significant scientific research that genuinely benefits millions of Americans, and helps to fight off many unhealthy trends that are beginning to become a problem in this country, such as obesity, might do well to consider being a professional nutritionist as an option for their career path.
