In the United States, nutritionists typically do not have MD's. They have graduate degrees but it is a separate discipline and they are not physicians.

My suggestion.

Ah! E uma dúvida que não quer calar. Qual a diferença entre nutricionista e nutrólogo? Nunes explica. Nutricionista fez a faculdade de Nutrição. Nutrólogo fez faculdade de Medicina e, também, a de Nutrição. "Não adianta formar em Medicina e fazer especialização em Nutrição. Tem que cursar a faculdade", esclarece.

A Physician Nutrition Specialist® (PNS) is a physician with training in nutrition who devotes a substantial career effort to nutrition and who can assume a leadership role in coordinating interdisciplinary clinical nutrition services and education in academic health centers, other medical centers, private practice, and other health care settings. PNSs generally have backgrounds in the specialties of internal medicine, pediatrics, family medicine, or general surgery, and sometimes in subspecialties such as adult or pediatric gastroenterology, endocrinology, critical care, nephrology, cardiology, or others. They have completed a period of defined nutrition training, in addition to categorical residency training, that includes mastery of a defined core of knowledge and completion of a period of mentored clinical nutrition experience, which may be obtained in a nutrition fellowship or as part of training in another subspecialty. They have satisfied all requirements of, and are certified by, the American Board of Physician Nutrition Specialists.

The American Board of Physician Nutrition Specialists (ABPNS) was established by IPNEC to provide a credential that recognizes physician expertise in clinical nutrition. The ABPNS certificate is the premier comprehensive credential for physicians who wish to identify nutrition as an area of expertise.

Not exactly the same, but it might work.

Qual a diferença entre Nutrólogo e Nutricionista?
O nutrólogo é o médico que conhece as propriedades dos alimentos e como eles afetam diretamente o organismo do paciente.
O nutricionista, por sua vez, pode trabalhar para que a dieta prescrita pelo nutrólogo seja preparada da melhor maneira possível.

Portuguese term (edited): nutr�logo

food and nutrition specialist

When I took my O Levels so many years ago, there was a subject called "Food and Nutrition". If you are talking about a University course, I would say "B.Sc. in Nutrition" - at least at USP they are not physicians.
