In the UK things are slightly easier. The word "dietician" is reserved. It is illegal to call yourself a dietician unless you have specific qualifications and are registered.
Anyone can call themselves a nutritionist. I could set up shop tomorrow, calling myself a nutritionist.
That's made a bit more complex because you have sensible nutritionists working within public health doing real science, and you have wingnuts.
