Dietetics/Nutrition is the study of food science and how food and nutrition impact human health. Health professionals who work in this field help people improve and maintain their health and wellbeing by providing advice on good nutrition and food choices, and by implementing positive dietary changes.

They have undertaken a relevant Science/Health Science Bachelor degree. Dieticians complete further post-graduate study and accreditation and are eligible to work in more clinical nutrition settings and assess and treat more complex health/dietary issues.
