See a registered dietitian online

Dietitians are registered healthcare professionals, capable of assessing, diagnosing, and treating nutritional concerns. They’re experts in human nutrition and the regulation of diet, and can help with chronic disease management, weight loss, athletic performance, digestive concerns, and more.

Some professionals use the terms dietitian and nutritionist interchangeably. All dietitians are nutritionists but not all nutritionists are dietitians. The term dietitian is protected by law through provincial legislation in all Canadian provinces, whereas the term nutritionist is not protected by law in some provinces.
