Nutrition as a career?

I love learning about Nutrtion … What are the factors behind the skin, good hair, what foods or bad for u, good for u, etc. ….. So I want to be a nutritionist … but at the same time I like to learn about things … I have no idea yet what is what really makes a nutrtionist ……. is difficult or easy to get a job ….. I also know that in states like Florida and California, which could have a good job, but I live in penssylvenia and am not sure if nutrtionists demnded here … also where you can work as either nutrtionist what is or not, and how would pay it?

It sounds like you may still be in school … if this is the case with a counselor (who have access to professionals manual and resources of many of us here have). They may even be able to configure with an opportunity to work shadow. This is what I have found yet … http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos077.htm Good Luck Dietitian_Salaries.asp http://careerplanning.about.com/cs/occupations/p/dietitian.htm http://www.cabnr.unr.edu/Nutrition/Students/:)
