Anyone know what the differences are between a Dietician and a Nutritionist?

I'm looking too go to someone that can help me come up with some dietary guidelines based on what I do for exercise and what my body needs for nutrients (hopefully based on some medical tests and not just charts and textbooks).

Next question is "Can anyone recomend somebody like this?"

dieticians go through a professional training program [HTML_REMOVED] internship to be accredited. Any bozo who has taken biology course can call themselves a nutritionist. Many personal trainers are quite well qualified to give advice on nutrition, etc. too. A good friend of mine is a trainer at Alan McGavin in Plaza of Nations, which is close to you if I remember right. I'm sure he'd be happy to talk to you. pm me if you want.

I'm quitting organized crime; from now on I'll stick to the regular kind.
