Turns out just anyone can call themselves a nutritionist, according to Dr Ben Goldacre, but "dietician" is something you actually have to be qualified for.

So, you can call yourself a nutritionist, run a blog about it, write a book about it, anything really, and tell anyone any kind of bullshit you make up.

I think I'm on pretty solid ground with mine though.

Here's the title:

"What You're Eating Is Probably Pretty Much Fine"

The strapline is "maybe just not so much, and don't do it all the time"

You mean dietitian.

This is meant to be good natured pedantry, but look it up, you may find it interesting.
