Dieticians and nutritionists have to know about: (i) food production and processing, (ii) social, economic, and psychological factors that influence food choice, (iii) the digestion, absorption and metabolism of food and its effect on nutritional well-being, and (iv) how to prevent and treat nutrition-related health problems and diseases.
Not only can they help, but it can become a very challenging career.

There is a role for dietitians certainly. Any biggish hospital has (to have) a qualified diatitian -- for good reasons. Every person has a need for a special diet: not only patients under treatment, but healthy, normal people, people in pressure jobs, those in sports and games, people who sing, drive, work in offices, work on computers........yes, dietitians can do a lot to maintain every one's health! -- if only people would listen to them! Their role is all the more important in today's life on fast tracks with so many cases of early burn-outs, many of them on account of improper diets!

You are right.
Very less chance for dietitians.
You have to educate your self, by keeping fit, by following simple excercises at home and through brisk walk or light running in the early morning hours.
We are facing hitech problems now.
No time to share and care, when you are depressed.
busy life because money is playing major role.
Untimely food, untimely sleeping - so on and so forth.
The life is changing for the worse.
Change is the essence of life.
I am sorry and so sad - I have to agree with you.

Most Dieticians I know work in hospital settings or schools. The ones in hospitals sometimes do clinics on healthier eating styles.

DEFINITELY!!!!
I am diabetic, type 2, since visiting a dietitian, and following her instructions, I've lost weight, lowered my blood pressure, and my A1C is down to 6.1 from 7.7 Cholesterol and triglycerides are down also.

Sort of, it is becoming a saturated field. However, if you have studied nutrition & taken any college courses in both fields, it can lead to a great career or just great knowledge for personal use.

yes indeed..!!
i myself am consulting one..
our living patterns have changed a lot in recent times and i am sure its not better anyways..
we have a tendency to eat anything anytime without realsisin the nutritional value (if any) of the thing..
we just eat because we are hungry..
but we need to check every bit of it..
for instance do u have any nutritional idea about carrots or tomatoes or bananas..
im sure u dont..
about water..?
na..
u dont..
so u eat wat u have beeen eating so that u not hungry and not according to wat ur body neeed..?
so diet consultancy i think is a must..
but dont shelve out a lot of money on it..
spend decently..
it'll save the cost of medicines u buy..
happy health..
and ya..
diet councelling really helps..
i too am unfit and 3 months regular councelling has imroved my stamina and i feel healthy from inside..
take care
