Potential index: ★★★★☆.
The popular name of "nutritionist" is "ordering food". With the improvement of living standards, people now pay attention not to eating well, but to eating well, so a kind of "nutritional caterer" came into being, which can provide personalized scientific catering services for customers' age, gender and physique. Therefore, with the maturity of consumers' consumption consciousness, the market demand of this profession has increased rapidly, and the estimated demand is as high as 500,000 or more.
In recent years, diseases caused by unreasonable diet, such as fatty liver and hyperlipidemia, are threatening people's health, especially in big cities. The demand for nutrition caterers in schools, institutions, enterprises and catering industry is increasing day by day, and will increase year by year from 2005.
At present, there are almost no people engaged in this profession in China. The training and assessment of nutrition caterers have been piloted in a few cities, such as Guangzhou and Chengdu, with good results. The entry threshold of this profession is not high, and the training period is about two months. I mainly study the basic knowledge of cooking materials, food nutrition, food safety, catering cost accounting, nutritious meal preparation, nutritious recipe making, nutritious meal making, food hygiene laws and regulations, professional ethics and so on. . . . . . .

The prospect of dieticians is very promising.
Sisi Lee read the abstract of the newspaper.
The following is a reprint, which Sisi Lee saw when searching for nutritionist information today. It is a special collection.
Yesterday afternoon, in Xinhe Street, Wenzhou, passers-by stopped from time to time in front of the store of Wang Sheng Food Company to look at the job advertisement-the nutritionist's annual salary is 200,000 yuan. Many people don't understand. What does this dietitian do? Why is the salary so high?
General Manager Wang Xiaoping, who is in charge of recruitment, said, "The annual salary of 200,000 is not much, and 300,000 or 40. 1 10,000 years is also willing to hire qualified nutritionists."
Zhao Xiaohong, head of the public dietitian project of the cadre training center of Zhejiang Institute of Standardization, confirmed that the annual salary of 200,000 yuan is the highest value of a dietitian in Zhejiang. "This shows the importance of dietitians and begins to get the response from the catering industry."
According to reports, more than 500 people in Zhejiang have participated in public nutrition training, and the first batch of 100 people who have obtained certificates have almost found good jobs.
Let women eat while they are young.
Wang Xiaoping has been engaged in the hotel industry for more than 20 years. When recruiting people before, what she wanted most was a chef with outstanding skills. Experience tells her that there are two good chefs in the shop who can come up with several delicious specialty dishes, and repeat customers will naturally keep coming.
However, a food appraisal will make Wang Xiaoping determined to find a good nutritionist.
Last month, the company held a special appraisal meeting for new products, such as bird's nest, fish glue, sea cucumber and other high-grade nutritious foods packaged in aluminum foil bags. All the people invited are gourmets and nutritionists from Shanghai.
"Bird's nest is most suitable for people who have just recovered from illness. Eating it after surgery is like absorbing the essence of nature brought by swallows. Bird's nest has been a good palace product since ancient times, and many harem beauties rely on bird's nest to delay aging. " Nutritionists talk about the efficacy from the composition and eating history of bird's nest, which is vivid and reasonable.
"Bird's nest can make women eat young"-a nutritionist's words made Wang Xiaoping very excited.
She thought that eating in a restaurant would be more delicious if such a nutritionist introduced her. When making food, it can also retain nutrients to the greatest extent. Knowing that there are nutritionists in our country, she decided to spend a lot of money on seeking talents because she was convinced that every woman wanted to be young.
A nutritionist teaches you how to eat hot pot.
"It is related to eating, and both male and female nutritionists should study it." Zhao Xiaohong, head of the provincial nutritionist project, said that food is the most important thing for the people, and dieticians are as important as eating.
She takes the hot pot she ate in winter as an example: many people love and are afraid to eat hot pot. The fear is anger. Some people are prepared to "sacrifice" before eating hot pot and accept the acne that will appear on their faces.
The nutritionist will tell you that you are angry because you can't eat hot pot. Most people choose to rinse meat and vegetables first, and then rinse vegetables. After eating mutton and other meat dishes, their "fighting power" is close to saturation, and they can't eat vegetables basically. The vitamin intake is definitely insufficient and they will definitely get angry.
The correct way to eat is to rinse some vegetables first and put the meat dishes in the back.
In addition to studying how to eat hot pot, the fundamental job of nutritionists is to avoid "illness from the mouth".
For example, gout patients can't eat instant-boiled mutton to avoid getting sick. Everyone is used to tonic in winter, but people with hyperlipidemia and fatty liver should be cautious in tonic, and excessive energy intake may be harmful to the body.
It can be said that the emergence of public nutritionists is to help everyone develop a healthy diet concept. They are "food doctors" who specialize in instructing people "what to eat, how to eat and how much to eat".
Dietitians earn a good income.
Zhao Xiaohong revealed that at present, only Zhejiang and Beijing have opened public dietitian courses. Zhejiang has opened the fifth issue, and the number of applicants has greatly exceeded expectations. From August to now, more than 500 people in the province have participated in the training, and the first batch of 100 people have passed the examination and obtained certificates.
Zhao Xiaohong introduced that there are three main employment directions for more than 100 certified dietitians: opening a nutrition consulting studio; Be a nutrition consultant in a hotel or other food company; Working in a large medical institution. Basically, everyone has a better job, with an annual salary of 50,000 to 65,438+10,000, and it is higher to open a consulting room by yourself.
It is understood that the minimum requirement for public dietitians to apply is high school or technical secondary school or above, and the rest are not too restrictive. "Many housewives can also become public nutritionists," said Zhao Xiaohong. To pass the exam, applicants must pass the "theory" and "practice" exams of public nutritionists, including more than ten kinds of contents such as basic nutrition, nutritional psychology and special group nutrition.
The youngest nutritionist in Zhejiang: 19 years old.
Zhu Yuchan, a 0/9-year-old Zhuji girl, is the youngest certified dietitian in Zhejiang. I used to be a pharmacist, but now I'm a nutritionist at "Steaming Kung Fu", a Chinese food chain in Hangzhou, with an annual salary of more than 50,000 yuan.
"I am very satisfied with my present job, and my salary has more than doubled." She told reporters on the phone yesterday.
Zhu Yuchan said that now her daily job is to guide guests how to order the most nutritious food. She was also very happy to see the guests leave with satisfaction after eating the food they recommended, and felt that what she had done was quite meaningful.
In addition to ensuring that guests eat healthily, she also instructs chefs to cook, such as not putting too much monosodium glutamate soy sauce. Although it tastes better, nutrients may be lost.
Recently, Zhu Yuchan has begun to guide other waiters in the store and teach them how to help guests order food, so as to avoid the situation that a guest orders ribs, beef and other meat dishes.
Zhejiang urgently needs male nutritionists.
Three months ago, Zhao Xiaohong was very optimistic about the future of nutritionists when interviewed by Metropolitan Express. She said, "Although no one knows what a nutritionist is now, maybe a year later, there will be advertisements for nutritionists in street newspapers."
However, in developed countries, it is an international practice for catering industry to employ full-time nutrition and health professionals. There is one nutritionist for every 300 people in Japan, while there are only over 3,000 nutritionists in China with a population of 65.438+300 million.
Zhao Xiaohong said that it is a precedent for Wenzhou to hire nutrition and health professionals with high salaries in the catering industry in our province, which means that the concepts of catering operators and consumers have begun to change. Eating well has long been a thing of the past, and now it is popular to eat well. Maybe in the near future, everyone will pay attention to healthy diet under the guidance of nutritionists.
In July this year, the first national dietitian training pilot base sponsored by the Education and Training Center of the Ministry of Labor and Social Security and the Geriatric Health Medicine Research Association officially settled in Zhejiang, and counseling stations were established in 10 cities in our province. When the first batch of public dietitian training courses in Lishui was launched, the registration was unexpectedly hot, and there were an endless stream of consultation telephones all over the city. The training course attracted many medical staff, teachers, salesmen of health care products companies, beauticians, chefs, fitness coaches and other people from all walks of life.

China's "National Nutrition Regulations" stipulates that canteens and catering units with more than 100 people must be equipped with nutritionists. Dishes will no longer be prepared only by chefs, but under the guidance of nutritionists, recipes will be matched, adjusted and adjusted together to ensure the reasonable nutritional collocation of diners.
There are less than 2,000 full-time nutritionists in China, 6,543.8+100,000 athletes, and only 6 professional nutritionists. If the equipment of nutritionists in China is to reach the international advanced level, there will be a shortage of 3 million nutritionists. According to a survey conducted by the Nutrition Society of China, among the 403 hospitals interviewed, only 47% have nutrition departments, and there are 1722 hospital nutrition staff, of whom only 392 are qualified as nutritionists. The grim reality makes the experts of China Nutrition Society realize the urgency of introducing relevant nutrition laws and regulations in China as soon as possible. Preparations for nutrition legislation have been going on for many years. The first draft of China's National Nutrition Regulations was submitted to the Ministry of Health and relevant state ministries for further discussion in May, and it is expected to be promulgated this year. At the same time, Beijing will also introduce relevant laws and regulations.
Experts from the Nutrition Society of China said that China's National Nutrition Regulations will try to solve the most urgent problems in dietary nutrition in China, including nutrition investigation and monitoring, the need to indicate nutritional ingredients on food labels, and the nutrition of special groups such as infants and women.
What benefits will ordinary people get from the promulgation of National Nutrition Regulations in China? Zhai, secretary general of China Nutrition Society, told reporters that after the promulgation of the regulations, all kindergartens and schools should be equipped with professional nutritionists. The main job of nutritionists is to study the relationship between nutrients in food and human functional needs, that is, to guide people to "eat what, how and how much", that is, the "trinity" of doctors, nutritionists and chefs.
Professor Sun, president of china health care association Food Nutrition and Safety Professional Committee, said in an interview that there is an urgent need for a large number of nutritionists in China, but there are less than 10,000 certified nutritionists. Not only do kindergartens encounter the embarrassment that nutrition and health care teachers are hard to find, but hospitals and communities also face the same problem.
China's upcoming "National Nutrition Regulations" stipulates that major hospitals and collective dining units must be equipped with nutrition and health workers; All kindergartens and schools should be equipped with nutritionists; The community should set up nutrition and health care teachers to educate residents on nutrition and health care knowledge regularly. According to China's forthcoming national nutrition regulations, Beijing alone needs 500,000 to 654,380,000 nutritionists, so the market prospect of nutritionists in China is promising.
Some excellent nutrition and health professionals were quickly taken away by some hospitals, communities and schools and became experts in their respective posts.

I have a cousin who studied nutrition in the mid-1980s. At that time, he was the first batch of undergraduates majoring in nutrition. After graduation, he transferred to the IT industry, and now he is the director of the R&D department of a large software company. When he graduated, it was difficult to find a job with a professional counterpart.
My niece just entered the university the year before last, and now she is an undergraduate in the Department of Nutrition, and will graduate in another year. She finds it difficult to find a suitable job. Although nearly 20 years have passed, the employment rate of this bank has improved little. Now she is actively trying to stay in school and become a teacher or counselor.
The prospect of nutrition is good, but at present, only large and medium-sized cities have personnel engaged in this industry, and there are not many universities offering nutrition majors in China. At present, the employment rate is not very high, especially for professional nutritionists, who are rarely set up, and are generally chefs and caterers.
Now my niece's classmates in the nutrition department say that there are two ways to graduate: one is to change careers (engage in related majors or simply lose this major), and the other is to take the postgraduate entrance examination (where you will be useful only if you have a high level of nutrition and are refined).

With the improvement of living standards, many people begin to be picky about food, not only to eat well, but also to eat well. However, how to eat well requires consulting professionals. Therefore, dietitian is becoming a favored profession. This is what the reporter learned in a recent interview.
The reporter learned that there is a strange phenomenon that individual nutritional deficiency and overall nutritional excess coexist in China. "Professional dietitians should be familiar with the nutritional components of all kinds of foods, formulate recipes according to the nutritional components to be ingested, and rationally match the diet." According to Mr. Wang, manager of a catering company in Changchun, "Although some hotels, fitness clubs, nutrition catering companies, catering enterprises and even universities, primary and secondary schools and kindergartens have their own health care doctors and nutrition catering personnel, not many people really understand nutrition, and catering companies also need talents with professional knowledge." Mr. Zhang, the human resources manager of a club, also said with deep feelings: "Years ago, our club wanted to recruit two nutritionists. Although there are many applicants, there are too few people who are really qualified to be nutritionists. "
An authoritative person in the professional skill appraisal of the Labor and Social Security Department of Jilin Province said that a qualified dietitian should be a "trinity" of doctors, nutritionists and chefs, and a compound talent with mental skills as the mainstay, not just "cooking porridge". The main job of nutritionists should be to study the relationship between nutrients in food and human functional requirements, that is, to guide people to "eat what, how and how much". According to the different research fields and contents, nutritionists can be subdivided into nutritionists who study children's nutrition, adolescents' nutrition and elderly nutrition.
Ms. Sun, who has worked as a nutritionist for many years, said that many times the work of a nutritionist is more like a "popular science" job. In the past, many citizens first chose to seek medical treatment for minor illnesses and pains. In fact, some common physical discomfort can be accomplished through diet therapy. The occurrence of chronic diseases such as hypertension, diabetes and obesity is closely related to "not eating"-unreasonable diet structure and unbalanced nutrition.

Dietitians are a new industry.
But it has a long history in developed countries such as North America.
Good nutrition is the guarantee of good health.
However, the development in China in recent years is not very optimistic.
Because in China, few people attach importance to nutrition collocation.
On the contrary, many people attach importance to gifts and supplements.
But in the long run,
The development of nutritionists is very promising.
Perhaps the recent recession is just a transitional period.
It's time for people to pay attention to it.
That's a tight industry ~
Like the customs broker in previous years.
I wish you success.
Support you ` ~
Note: Turn around and take your time.
