Thank you for watching!! If you are interested in more RD-related content, I have an entire playlist for you: ua-cam.com/play/PL4RO0pEjf5RRu7YZ410R2PMcc5fFjgrDH.html - let me know in the comments in you have any specific RD content you'd like to see more of in the future :)
I am so glad to hear this!! Yes, there are so many different options out there for us :) Work as a dietitian in the community sector or corporate world can take on sooo many different shapes!!
I just wanted to say to you that you're doing a wonderful thanks for everybody in your area to teach them how to eat healthy I just started following your Channel and you're very interesting person I'm your follower from the Nevada area
In my experience, nutrition degrees are heavy in science with applied nutrition along with foodservice courses. Some courses include; medical nutrition therapy, nutrition through the lifecycle, macro and micronutrients, nutrition counseling, nutritional genomics, etc. One thing to keep in mind, to become a Dietitian you will now be required to obtain a Master’s degree, a dietetic internship (unpaid), and sit for the RD exam. With all of that being said, I LOVED getting a Bachelor’s degree in Nutrition with an emphasis in Dietetics. I am currently applying for my internships and starting my Master’s in the spring. Best of luck to you!
Hello! I just always made it very clear to my mentors and peers what my interests and specialties were. A preceptor from my internship knew this about me and immediately reached out when he heard about a job opportunity that required a dietitian's license but also a knack for event planning, public speaking, and public relations. So I would say just own your interests and find ways to use your interests in the current place you are now. When I worked in a clinical setting, for example, I always volunteered to cover any speaking roles if media wanted to interview our department. Or I'd volunteer to create nutrition workshop flyers. Or oversee the newsletter. Bloom where you are planted and more will follow! Best of luck on your journey!
Hi guys! I've been away for awhile so forgive me if this message is way too late or never seen, but! I would agree. As a dietitian, you do make less than a physician. There are pre-med students who minor in nutrition though! So that's something to consider. We need more people in medicine who value and have an interest in nutrition - so this is great!! I hope that helps :)
Hi! I would check out some American universities and see what their requirements are. Also check the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (AND)(eatright.org) website to see what is required to become an American dietitian!! Best of luck!!
I interned with them during my internship! I feel like that is a great time to really reach out and try everything that comes your way. I never expected to be working in a position like this. So just stay open and really utilize that time in your internship! Even if you don't think you'll like something. It might surprise you.
@@kayleemoran2248 If you want to go into a field like this I would definitely recommend a dietitian's license. But also minor or double majoring in something business related like marketing. If that's too much you can position yourself as an aspiring business/marketing dietitian through your extracurriculars as a student! Make sure you get some hands on experience while in school to not only build your resume, but to confirm that you truly enjoy this line of work!

Hi!!!!! In what settings did you do your diatetic internship???? Thanks
Hi!! Do you mean like the type of rotations? I did clinical, community, and foodservice. Those are the three big pillars of the internship!
Hi! I'm wondering how you transitioned from pursuing RD to communications, and how you have combined both

I really want to study about food and the relationship btw it and our bodies , but I want to study Medicine too , I'm really Puzzeld 😣
THIS IS LITERALLY ME AND I’VE BEEN WATCHING YT TO HELP ME😂😂 nice to know it’s not just me!
I think one of the big things putting me off studying nutrition is the pay and also uncertainty in what job I will actually get
@@sierrah6242 Finally I found someone like me 🤣, I love both of them but in My country It is hard to find a job if I studied nutrition....

How did you come across a job like this? As a dietetic student, I love the flexibility of what you're doing.

Same, I’m interested in doing something very similar. What would you recommend as far as schooling/training?
