In India, "Nutritionist" is a title often used by those who have completed comprehensive human nutrition programs. However, the title of "Dietician" is legally reserved for those holding a formal degree in Dietetics (PG Diploma or Masters). We encourage our scholars to represent their credentials accurately based on their full academic background.
