What’s the difference between a dietitian and a naturopath?

In Canada, naturopaths are regulated under the Canadian Association of Naturopathic Doctors (CAND). Typically, naturopaths have completed a 4-year training program that combines education and supervised clinical study.

In Canada, naturopaths are currently not a regulated health professional like registered dietitians are.

Naturopaths are educated on nutrition, but their education focuses on supplements and medications.
