How I Can Help

What's a Registered Dietitian?

A dietitian is a nutrition expert who turns evidence-based concepts into practical advice, helping you make healthier choices and achieve your best health. In Canada, the profession is regulated by the provinces to ensure high standards and protect the public. 

Registered dietitians (RD) must meet the following criteria order to earn the title:

  • Earn an accredited 4-year degree in nutrition sciences
  • Complete an accredited dietetic internship or equivalent supervised training.
  • Pass the Canadian Dietetic Registration Examination
  • Be registered with a provincial regulatory body

Similar to any other provider on your health care team, it’s important to find a dietitian whose approach fits your needs. This will be supportive to your success and wellbeing.

FAQs

Most people aren’t aware that there is a difference between these two titles. In fact, the meaning of “dietitian” and “nutritionist” varies by province.

In Ontario, the terms “dietitian”, “registered dietitian” and “RD” are protected by law, so only qualified professionals meeting the above criteria can use them. Meanwhile, the term “nutritionist” can be used by anyone.

In Quebec, both “dietitian” and “nutritionist” titles are protected by law. You may also notice the French equivalents being used such as “diététiste”, “diététiste professionnelle”, “Dt.P.” ou “nutritionniste”.

Many health insurance plans provide coverage for individual nutrition counseling sessions with registered dietitians as part of their extended health benefits. Coverage may vary depending on your insurance provider and the specific terms of your plan. 

Some plans may cover the full cost of consultations, while others may require a co-payment or have limits on the number of visits covered per year. I recommend checking with your insurance provider to determine the extent of your coverage for dietitian services.
