Teephar:
what's the difference between a dietician and a nutritionist.... My dad was told to go and see an nutritionist in ibadan... And we have lots of dieticians here in Abuja...

Hello Teephar,

Good to hear from you.

The major difference between a dietitian and nutritionist is the level of education and training between the two. Both function with same goal- To assist client achieve optimal nutrition, through better food choices.
A dietitian must complete one year dietetic internship and pass the dietetic test of professional competency by the IDN (institute of dietetics in Nigeria) to be licensed to practice in clinical setting, in addition to postgraduate degree.
While a nutritionist can be registered with Nutrition society of Nigeria, as a graduate of human Nutrition/ Nutrition and dietetics.


I would have to ask you, if you know the reason your dad was referred to a nutritionist in Ibadan, with dietitians practicing in Abuja.
Depending on who referred him, medical practitioner? Or non medical?, and his/her reasons for doing so.

I am sure the referrer wants the best care for your dad.

Apologies for late response.

pls I have a question that might be off topic. pardon me for derailing.

can a biochemistry graduate (is a bsc holder) be registered and licensed as a professional nutritionist/dietician? is there any guideline to follow?

As a bsc. Biochemistry graduate, you will be required to complete PGD /MSc Nutrition (postgraduate diploma), for you to be able to register as a nutritionist.

In addition to PGD/ MSc Nutrition, you will be required to undergo one year Dietetic Internship at accredited hospital centers (oauthc, uch, Luth, unth, juth).

After completion of the dietetic internship, your center would enroll you for the TOPC examination (test of professional competency), and Registration under the national body. If your successful in the exam you will be giving the license to practice has a Registered dietitian.
