How can I become a nutritionist?
Question 1: What is a nutritionist? How can I become a nutritionist? To be a qualified dietitian, you need to have certain qualities and meet many conditions. It's not discussed here, but only from the technical aspect. My experience is that the problem is complicated and the specific operation is simplified. Technically speaking, if you really want to be a qualified dietitian, you must first understand medicine. To understand medicine here, you don't need to have a deep and extensive knowledge in medicine, but to master some basic medical knowledge. What systems does the human body have? Those organs? What is the relationship between them? How to operate? What does metabolism need? What is the standard of human health? What are the specific manifestations of sub-health state? Wait a minute. If you don't know these things, you can't be sure what state the object you are facing, let alone carry out nutritional conditioning; The second is to master some basic knowledge of pharmacy, that is, under what circumstances does the human body need to use drugs? Chinese medicine or western medicine? What medicine do you use? How many doses? How long will it take? Compared with western medicine, it is easier, because there are instructions on the packaging of western medicine, which can be seen at a glance. Traditional Chinese medicine depends on experience (including previous experience and own experience). Chinese medicine pays attention to "looking, smelling, asking and cutting" and observes words and looks. This is actually the practical application after accumulating experience. Traditional Chinese medicine is amazing, and there are many phenomena that cannot be explained clearly at present. In daily life, many kinds of food are both food and medicine. There are 2002 kinds published by the US Food and Drug Administration in China. What are the medicinal values of these foods? How about the medicine? What is the usual quantity? Are there any taboos between them or other foods? This knowledge should not only be understood, but also understood and remembered. Thirdly, there are many foods as a supplementary source of human nutrition, including animals and plants, water and even oxygen. They are rare in nature. However, compared with cooked food that people eat, that is, food processed by a series of means and methods such as frying, frying, boiling, frying, stewing, frying, steaming, stewing and baking, and food stored for a certain period of time and in a certain way, due to the changes of various nutritional components in the process, such as oxidation, decomposition, neutralization, synthesis, loss, etc., their nutritional components are much larger than the original ones. It is also necessary to adopt what kind of planting, production, harvesting, storage, transportation and processing methods to maximize the retention of various nutrients in food. These belong to the category of cooking. Fourth, what nutrients does the human body need? In which foods do the required nutrients exist? Which ones are easily absorbed, transformed and utilized by the human body? How can we effectively absorb, transform and utilize these nutrients? These are also what every nutritionist needs to learn, study and master. Although there are many nutritious foods, it is very convenient to have a ready-made "China Food Composition Table". But what should a person eat on weekdays if he wants to stay healthy or guide a sub-healthy person to recover through diet therapy? How to eat? How much to eat? When to eat? How to adjust in the early, middle and late stages? What are the precautions during the period? And so on, all these questions need to be answered as public nutritionists. So technically, as a qualified dietitian, you must know medicine, pharmacy, cooking and nutrition at the same time to be competent. In addition, as a qualified dietitian, you can't be a nerd or a dogmatist. They are different from staff canteens, student canteens, kitchens in hotels and restaurants, and nutrition departments in hospitals. They must apply their accumulated professional knowledge of medicine, pharmacy, cooking and nutrition to real life for the guidance of sub-health rehabilitation and conditioning. In the specific operation, it is not necessary to make a total calorie intake distribution table for each object rigidly and dogmatically. But many times, it is necessary to give out what bad living habits, eating habits should be corrected, and how to correct them for a specific object; Recommend food suitable for him; Give the approximate amount of these foods expressed in ordinary people's language every day; And give good suggestions on the best processing methods of these foods suitable for the subjects, and even give suggestions on supplementing some natural healthy foods when the subjects are seriously deficient in some nutrients. For example, fresh day lily, lily and konjac contain a chemical called colchicine, which is toxic to ordinary people, but it is suitable for gout patients and people with hyperuricemia. > & gt

Question 2: What should I do to become a healthy dietitian? How to become a qualified dietitian Guo Boying (Shenzhen), an internationally registered dietitian, believes that food is the first thing for the people, but the knowledge of eating goes far beyond eating. What to eat? How to eat? How much to eat? Why eat big fish and meat or malnutrition? Why diet every day, obesity or out of control? Why can you get hypertension, fatty liver and diabetes if you don't pay attention to your diet? Indeed, everyone can eat, but how can we eat scientifically and reasonably? This requires the guidance of a nutritionist. In fact, dietitians refer not to simple nutrition catering, but also to the rational use of knowledge such as aesthetics, psychology and sports health. For example, if we cook a dish and finally add coriander as an ornament, the aesthetic knowledge involved is also the scope of nutritionists' research. Now there are nutritionists in many big hospitals, mainly to adjust the diet for middle and late diabetic patients and seriously ill patients to help control the disease. Some nutritionists began to provide personalized consultation, catering and other services, and even entered the family. Generally speaking, only a few people can actively seek services from nutritionists at present. Nutrition is a science, and nutritionists specialize in nutrition collocation, nutrition complementarity and nutrition balance. We not only teach people to eat well, but also provide healthy eating concepts. We calculate how many kilocalories we need a day according to different people's age, height, weight and physical strength. Nutritionists also tell people how many amino acids, minerals, vitamins and other elements the human body needs in various foods. Not everyone knows about scientific diet. People know something about animal protein, plant protein, eating more vegetables and eating less meat, but this is only a preliminary understanding of scientific diet, and there is still a long way to go from nutritional requirements. For example, we go out to eat, like to eat seafood, and eat a lot of fruit immediately after eating. In fact, this is unscientific, because there are pentavalent arsenic compounds in soft-shell seafood and rich vitamin C in fruits. Pentavalent arsenic compounds are easily oxidized into bivalent arsenic compounds by vitamin C. If we consume too much, it is easy to cause arsenic compounds, which is what we call arsenic poisoning. And chocolate can't be eaten with milk, because chocolate contains oxalic acid, which will form insoluble calcium salt with calcium in milk and deposit in the body, and so on. With China's entry into WTO and the improvement of China's living standards, more and more people begin to pay attention to their own nutrition. So how can we become a qualified dietitian? Or who is more promising in this field? First of all, we require a qualified dietitian with relevant academic background, engaged in biochemistry, medicine, health care and so on. And master certain professional knowledge, such as various nutrients needed by human body, such as protein, fat, sugar, vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber, etc. What role do they play in the human body? This requires nutritionists to have a certain foundation in chemistry and biology, so if they want to engage in this industry, they must have at least a high school education. Secondly, nutritionists are required to be familiar with the nutritional value of various foods. Such as milk, it can provide high-quality protein, calcium and vitamins needed by human body. For example, vegetables can supply vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber, bioactive factors, chlorophyll and other antioxidant or health factors, which is why vitamin pills can not replace vegetables. Finally, nutritionists need to know how to balance the diet of China residents according to their recommended daily intake. The basic principle is: the food is diverse, mainly cereals. Eat more vegetables, fruits and potatoes complement each other. Milk beans are always available. Eat fish, poultry, eggs and meat in moderation. Exercise regularly and eat moderately. Light and less salt, eat less fat. If you drink, you should. Healthy diet, disease prevention and longevity. Secondly, we require to be a qualified dietitian and master the skills of various food collocation. For example, it is unscientific to eat seafood and fruit at the same time, and chocolate and milk cannot be eaten together; Too much protein will affect calcium intake; Although dietary fiber intake should be advocated, it should not be too much, because uronic acid residue in dietary fiber will affect calcium intake; If the ratio of vitamin C to iron in the diet is 10: 1, it is beneficial to the absorption of iron and so on. In addition, we also require that to be a qualified dietitian, we should pay attention to life accumulation and have basic knowledge of life, such as cooking delicious meals; I know the terms of food and condiments like the back of my hand, and I know the weight list of food like the back of my hand, such as how many grams of fat a spoonful of oil contains, and how many grams of protein and fat a catty of lean meat contains. Buying food can also be familiar; In addition, the price and grade of food should be basically mastered, so as to distinguish the quality of food, how to better scientifically preserve food and prevent excessive loss of nutrition. These ordinary life accumulations can make your professional level develop better ... >>

Question 3: How to become a nutritionist 1. Seize the opportunity.

Entering the nutrition industry is believed to be the most important opportunity I have seized so far. Why do you say that? We will never forget the "SARS years" in 2003, when the air was filled with white terror. The first patient was infected with SARS because he ate civet cats, and then the claws of SARS ravaged mankind. When the whole of China was in a health crisis, people realized the importance of health to life! I have always been deeply interested in nutrition. I have found a gap that needs to be filled urgently to improve people's quality of life, a vast world to start my own career, and a rare opportunity in life! In order to seize the opportunity, I searched everywhere for institutions to train nutritionists. The advanced teaching concept, perfect training system, powerful teachers and authoritative teaching experience of balanced nutrition training school have made my eyes shine and attracted me to join this "blast furnace" full of knowledge. The school provides face-to-face classes, online classes, correspondence education and other diverse forms of learning. I chose office workers because they are most suitable for distance learning.

In the following study, I devoted myself to learning the basic knowledge and skills of regulating nutritional balance, actively communicating with people in the field of nutrition, accumulating my own knowledge, improving my level, expanding my horizons and accumulating many contacts for myself. At the end of my studies, I successfully obtained the certificates of senior nutritionist and nutrition lecturer with excellent results. This marks that I have become a qualified nutritionist to protect public health, and I am proud of myself!

Secondly, I see the prospect.

Can becoming a public dietitian really open up a new situation for a person to start a business? Are their prospects really optimistic?

Let's take a look at some examples around us: a friend of mine breastfed a baby for 6 months. Because there was not enough milk, she began to feed the baby meatballs and rice paste. Unexpectedly, the baby began to have frequent diarrhea, which became more and more serious and developed slowly. In desperation, she consulted my teacher. After detailed analysis, the teacher found that the crux of the baby's health problem is that the complementary food is improperly added, and it is not in accordance with the requirements of adapting to the baby's age, from one to multiple, from thin to thick, from less to more, from small to large, from small to large, when the body is healthy and when the temperature is appropriate. The problem is found. The teacher designed a complementary food addition scheme and customized the baby's recipe. After a period of aftercare, the child is getting better and better now. Because of the lack of nutrition knowledge, many people around us have adverse health consequences.

Let's take a look at the prediction of professional experts: through a large number of data analysis, the mass nutrition industry will be the hottest industry after the IT industry and the real estate industry. At present, the consumer demand of China's mass nutrition industry is strong, and the market share in 2004 has exceeded 654.38+0.20 billion yuan. It is estimated that the market share will be at least 300 billion in the next five years! In the next 20 years, it is estimated that the number of public nutritionists in China must be gradually increased by 4 million to meet the basic needs of the development of public nutrition industry. This means value and opportunity for public nutritionists. With the industrialization and large-scale development of public nutritionists, a group of brand-new entrepreneurs will appear in the public nutrition industry.

The employment form of public dietitians is very promising, and the earlier the better. Public dietitians will be the core force to promote the prosperity of nutrition consultation centers, nutritious meal companies, fitness and beauty centers, food enterprises and other industries, and share benefits. Providing education, consultation and guidance services for employees, white-collar workers, senior managers, athletes and families is also an important source of income for nutritionists. They can also play an important role in the community, which will be a wider world.

Because I am currently in Chengdu, let's talk about the development of nutritionists in Chengdu. A group of nutritionists trained by Chengdu Balanced Nutrition School have proved to us that this profession is "Qian Jing". At present, the annual income of on-the-job nutritionists in Chengdu is between 40,000 yuan and 65,438+10,000 yuan, and some of them are particularly excellent. For example, they teach in health care products companies, and their monthly salary reaches tens of thousands! Community nutritionists have also tasted the sweetness, because only one family can charge an annual fee of thousands of yuan as a nutrition consultant! Male * * * nutritionists have tried their best, sharp-edged! I believe that after the promulgation of the national nutrition regulations, the world of nutritionists will inevitably be broader.

Third, I was encouraged.

What really inspired me was some nutritionists around me. Their impressive achievements in starting a business are inspiring. ...& gt& gt

Question 8: How to become a national dietitian? Baidu "Neptune" has the answer. Go and have a look, there are fewer and fewer!

Question 9: How to be a qualified dietitian! Although the career prospects of nutritionists are promising, the entry threshold is not low. Specifically, a qualified nutritionist is a "trinity" of doctors, nutritionists and chefs. He should have knowledge of medicine, nutrition, food hygiene, food safety and nutritious cooking. And can combine different nutrition recipes for different groups of people and be familiar with food hygiene laws and regulations. Generally speaking, self-study is difficult because of high employment requirements and professional training.

At present, there are three national vocational training programs related to nutritionists. 1, national dietitian professional qualification certificate. The Ministry of Labor and Social Security is responsible for * * * in five grades. Those who pass the examination have obtained the professional qualification certificate of dietitian issued by the national labor department. 2, nutrition and health care teacher certificate. It is jointly developed by the National Talent Flow Center of the Ministry of Personnel and the china health care association Mental Health Professional Committee, and is divided into three grades: junior, middle and senior. The national unified examination is held four times a year in March, June, September and June, 65438+ February. The exam consists of three parts: written test, evaluation and interview. Those who pass the examination can obtain the national number, electronic registration and national professional certificate of nutrition and health care technicians issued by the National Talent Flow Center of the Ministry of Personnel. 3.

Question 10: Can I become a nutritionist through self-study? First of all, we divide nutritionists into two categories according to their difficulty: clinical nutritionists and non-clinical nutritionists. Clinical nutritionists need medical students to apply! Non-clinical nutritionists are not limited by medical background. Hmm. . . Unfortunately, self-study without the training of national certification bodies can't be tested! This training is a threshold, a bit like driving test. You can't even drive yourself. You need training to get a certificate! Now let's talk about a nutritionist who is acceptable to everyone and has a good prospect. The national legislation was promulgated at the end of this year, which means that there is no "qualification certificate" recognized by the Ministry of Labor, and now there is only a "job training certificate". As for other departments, such as the Ministry of Health and the Health Association. . . Certificates issued by other departments have little recognition after the law was promulgated by the Ministry of Labor. Now it's time to go to your local formal department to apply for a public dietitian, and after several months of study, get an on-the-job training certificate. Then, after the introduction of national laws, take advantage of the relatively loose policies to quickly test the qualification certificate. Can be engaged in many industries, can do direct sales in the health industry, Shenzhen now has nutritionists to order food, * * * health consultation, and many community units will be equipped with nutritionists in the future, which will have a wide range of employment. Good luck!
