1. What's the future of nutritionists?
Everybody knows that. Who doesn't have a minor illness or pain? What family has no patients with chronic diseases? Who hasn't met a circle of friends to raise money easily? The situation of chronic diseases in China is really not optimistic, and it must be a headache in the future society. But now the living environment is not optimistic: tap water bleaching, fruit and vegetable greenhouses, meat fast food, food agents, bad air. Rivers and oceans are also polluted, which is a blowout that promotes chronic diseases.
Therefore, if the treatment can't solve the problem, we must start with life intervention, and we definitely need a lot of nutritionists and health managers. The country has also made a lot of efforts to promote the development of the health industry, and the prospect of the big environment is beyond doubt.
2. How is the dietitian industry now?
The clinical nutrition system in China hospitals started several decades earlier than the nutritionist system in society, and the treatment of most clinical nutrition departments is not very good at present. Hospitals are still dominated by medical treatment, and the level of nutritionists and health managers in the market is even more mixed.
Of course, even so, the income of nutritionists and health managers is not good, and the industry is not good. There are also many very powerful, well mixed, and of course there are many ordinary ones. In fact, this is true of any profession. Not specifically, 100% has a delicious job and a delicious industry if it doesn't work.
There is no such thing as a good job. No matter how good your career is, you can't be better without hard work.
Every industry has its ups and downs, and there is no absolute bull market like stocks.
Therefore, only self-improvement can seize the tuyere when it comes, and there is still room for counterattack at low tide.
3. What is the direction of maternal and child nutritionists?
According to the data summarized from our industry experience, the employment ratio: nutrition >; Textual research training and education > weight management > maternal and child nutrition > chronic disease nutrition;
Most people do nutrition science, because there is not much risk and it is very easy, either as a lecturer or writing popular science articles.
The number of maternal and child nutrition practitioners ranks fourth temporarily. Although there are many nutritionists in the industry, they are not very standardized, and more are catering, so the market opportunities are still great.
Of course, there are many excellent maternal and child companies and service platforms, so there is no shortage of employment and learning opportunities.
From the time I have been here for so long, others have asked and answered: some people still like maternal and child nutrition, especially novice mothers, who just need it and are precise.
4. I majored in food at the university, passed the certificate of nutritionist, and wanted to find a job related to my major. What should I do now?
Food science major:
This major trains senior engineering and technical personnel in food science and engineering who have knowledge of chemistry, biology, food engineering and food technology and can be engaged in food production technology management, quality control, product development, scientific research and engineering design in the food field.
Where do graduates go:
Mainly for food production and processing enterprises, product production and processing enterprises with animal and plant products as raw materials and relevant state organs, universities, research institutes, customs, commodity inspection, commercial companies, quality supervision, health and epidemic prevention, environmental protection, intellectual property protection and other departments.
Some nutritionists do specialize in food nutrition, but food science and nutrition still run counter to each other.
Although you have the foundation of a public dietitian, it is far from enough to rely on this, and the practical experience is too lacking.
If you want to choose the maternal and child nutrition route, you can start with the work assistance of the nutrition caterer or assistant, gradually accumulate experience and constantly learn and improve yourself. Or challenge a more professional registered dietitian (RD) or registered nutrition technician (DTR) certificate.
