Why Specialize as a Nutritionist?
Great personal trainers know you can't out-exercise a bad diet. This means clients need nutrition advice. If they don't get tips on what to eat from you, they'll look elsewhere to another professional or questionable online resources.
When you specialize as a Nutritionist, you offer an additional service to existing clients. This means you can increase your rates AND have a new, standalone service offering.
A Nutritionist Certification is the answer if you want to:
Make more money
Add status to your resume
Deliver online nutrition services - anywhere
Perfect your own nutrition program
